A plant cell death-inducing protein from litchi interacts with Peronophythora litchii pectate lyase and enhances plant resistance

Nature Communications
The plant apoplastic space is a critical battlefield in plant-microbe interactions. Here, the authors show that a positive regulator of plant immunity PIP1 recognizes pectate lysates secreted by oomycetes and elicits immunity via SERK3.

Effects of green manure intercropping on soil nutrient content and bacterial community structure in litchi orchards in China

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
Green manure intercropping is an agronomic management practice that effectively increases soil nutrients in understory and reduces weed population. However, the influence of different green manures on soil properties and soil bacterial community in ...

Fruit cracking in litchi (Litchi chinensis): An overview

The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2017
Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.), an arillate fruit species of China origin, possessed a unique structure comprising thin and leathery pericarp that enclosed the aril as its edible part. Fruit cracking is a serious physiological disorder in litchi that occurs during its growth and development, and causes significant loss of economic yield.

Physicochemical Properties and Antioxidant Activity of Apocynum Honey in Different Regions of Xinjiang

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, honey produced from Apocynum venetum L. was collected from BC (Bachu County), SY (Shaya County), and YL (Yuli County) in Xinjiang. The basic physical and chemical properties of the honey, and the contents of total phenols, total flavonoids, and amino acids were analyzed, and 16 types of polyphenols were quantified using triple ...

Beeswax: Food and beyond

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Honeybees (Apis mellifera L.) are an important class of insects that are the most beneficial in terms of economy. Beeswax is the second most important bee products after honey. Its commercial importance is due to its antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory and antiseptic as well as regenerative properties.

Reduction of Pericarp Browning and Microbial Spoilage on Litchi Fruits in Modified Atmosphere Packaging

Horticulturae, 2023
The pericarp browning and postharvest microbiological decay of litchi fruit (Litchi chinensis Sonn cv Kwai Mai) significantly reduce its commercial potential in the fresh market. In this study, different combinations of modified atmosphere packaging (MAP)

Dielectric properties of litchi fruit (Litchi chinensis Sonn) at microwave frequencies

Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2020
The dielectric properties of litchi fruit were determined using the open-ended coaxial probe method. The measurements were performed in the frequency range from 0.5 to 20 GHz during 3 days of storage at room temperature (~  24 °C). The dielectric properties increased with storage time.
