Pracaxi Oil as a Potential Inhibitor of Fat Bloom

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fat bloom is one of the major technological challenges faced by the chocolate industry, caused by the polymorphic transition from β2(V) to β1(VI) crystals in cocoa butter (CB). One strategy to slow down this polymorphic transition is the addition of lipids rich in very long chain fatty acids (VLCFA), such as behenic acid.

Melatonin in flowering, fruit set and fruit ripening

Plant Reproduction, 2020
Melatonin induces a delay in flowering stabilizing DELLA proteins and also promotes the transcription of FLC. In fruit set, melatonin is able to induce parthenocarpy. Melatonin promotes ripening and retards senescence of fruits. Melatonin is an animal hormone involved in many regulatory processes such as those related to sleep. Melatonin was discovered

Flowering and fruit set

2020
The most relevant aspects related to flowering, fruit set, and fruit development are reviewed in this chapter. In relation to flowering, special attention has been paid to the genetic, environmental aspects, particularly temperature and water stress, and to the endogenous factors, such as the nutritional status of the plant and the influence of the ...

PHYSIOLOGICAL FACTORS IN TOMATO FRUIT‐SET

American Journal of Botany, 1952
THE CHANGE-OVER from the static condition of the flower ovary to the rapidly growing condition of a young fruit is a dramatic shift. This important phenomenon, commonly spoken of as fruit-set, is an essential step in the life cycle of all sexually reproducing higher plants.

Unraveling the signal scenario of fruit set

Planta, 2014
Long-term goals to impact or modify fruit quality and yield have been the target of researchers for many years. Different approaches such as traditional breeding,mutation breeding, and transgenic approaches have revealed a regulatory network where several hormones concur in a complex way to regulate fruit set and development,and these networks are ...

To set or not to set: new tools to study the control of cucumber fruit set

Acta Horticulturae, 2017
Understanding the developmental control of fruit set is an important challenge. In cucumber, fruit set is governed by several hormones, including gibberellin, cytokinin and auxin, and is also affected by assimilate supply and previous fruit load. We have produced transgenic cucumbers that express reporter genes under the control of the Exp, ARR5 and ...

MODELLING FRUIT SET, FRUIT GROWTH AND DRY MATTER PARTITIONING

Acta Horticulturae, 1999
This paper discusses how fruit set, fruit growth and dry matter partitioning can be simulated by models where sink strength (assimilate demand) and source strength (assimilate supply) are the key variables. Although examples are derived from experiments on fruit vegetables such as tomato, sweet pepper and cucumber, the theoretical basis holds for a ...
