Development of cardoon male sterile clones
In the genus Cynara, genetic male sterility was up to now selected and characterized only in globe artichoke. This character, under the control of 2-3 recessive genes, is of post-meiotic type with non-functional pollen grains; it seems to be caused by a low nutritional activity of the anther tapetal cells during pollen ripening stage.

Storage of Cardoon Roots for Inulin Production
This work has been performed in the frame of COMETA Project. COMETA is a three-year project aimed at developing value chains based on low-input non-food crops suitable for marginal areas in order to convert all the crop fractions by advanced green chemistry technologies into bio-based products.

The species Cynara cardunculus is consumed as part of the Mediterranean diet and consists of the globe artichoke [var. scolymus (L.) Fiori], the cultivated cardoon (var. altilis DC.), and the wild cardoon [var. sylvestris (Lamk) Fiori]. The objective of this study was to investigate, in immature inflorescences, the main flavonoids and phenolic acids ...

INFLUENCE OF GENOTYPE ON BIOMASS PRODUCTION AND POLYPHENOLS OF ARTICHOKE AND CARDOON
Cynara is a relatively small genus comprising two important crops: globe artichoke (C. cardunculus L. subsp. scolymus (L.) Fiori) and cultivated cardoon (C. cardunculus L. var. altilis DC.). The chemical components of artichoke leaves have been studied extensively and have been found to be a rich source of polyphenolic compounds.

Cardoon plants are cultivated mostly for the added value of their flowers, used in the cheese industry as a coagulant, but the stalks, branches and leaves are a by-product with no added value. In the present work, totally biosourced particleboards were produced using cardoon particles, bound with an adhesive based on a cardoon leaf extract and citric ...

Potential health benefits of cardoon in cheese production [PDF]
Objectives: Cardoon thistle (Cynara cardunculus) is frequently used as a coagulant in Portuguese cheese production in a water-based extract called thistle-rennet, particularly in the region of Serpa in Alentejo, Serra da Estrela and Azeitão. The goal of this study was to test the potential bioactivity of cardoon and thistle-rennet, specifically against

THE EVOLUTION OF CYNARA: DIVERSITY AND DOMESTICATION OF ARTICHOKE AND CARDOON
Acta Horticulturae, 2012The genus Cynara is of Mediterranean origin and includes eight species. Most of the wild Cynara spp. have an eastwards or westwards geographical distribution within the Mediterranean basin. Even the progenitor of artichoke, C. cardunculus var. sylvestris, which is reported to range from Greece to Spain, actually is present as two different types: the ...

Cardoon-based rennets for cheese production
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2018The use of crude aqueous extracts of Cynara cardunculus flowers as coagulants in the production of high-quality sheep and goat cheeses-as are the cases of several Portuguese and Spanish cheese varieties with Protected Designation of Origin status-has been maintained since ancient times.
