Postharvest physiology and handling of litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.)

Postharvest Biology and Technology, 1996
Abstract The litchi is a stone fruit with a rough indehiscent pericarp surrounding the succulent, edible aril. During development and ripening the fruit exhibits a sigmoidal growth curve and a nonclimacteric respiratory pattern. Maturity is indicated by size and color, but a more accurate measure is the sugar:acid ratio.

Thin-layer drying of litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.)

Food and Bioproducts Processing, 2011
Abstract This article presents the thin-layer drying of peeled litchi, which was conducted under controlled conditions of temperature and relative humidity. It was observed that the drying temperature has some influence on the drying rates of peeled litchi, so that the higher the temperature the less the drying time. Eight different thin-layer models

Genetic variation of wild litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn. subsp. chinensis) revealed by microsatellites

Conservation Genetics, 2011
Understanding the amount and distribution of genetic diversity in natural populations can inform the conservation strategy for the species in question. In this study, genetic variation at eight nuclear microsatellite loci was used to investigate genetic diversity and population structure of wild litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn. subsp. chinensis). Totally

Ecophysiology of Alternaria alternata Causing Diseases in Litchi (Litchi chinensis)

Erwerbs-Obstbau, 2021
Alternaria alternata (Fr.) Keissl. is an important pathogen of litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) that causes blight of leaf, panicle and fruits. Ecophysiological determinants favouring growth and sporulation are keys to understand the pathogen behaviour.

Antioxidant effect and active components of litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) flower

Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2012
The effects of scavenging 2, 2-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl hydrate (DPPH) radicals and inhibiting low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation, and phenolic quantities were used for the activity-guided separation to identify the effective components of litchi flower.

Litchi chinensis: medicinal uses, phytochemistry, and pharmacology

Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 2015
Litchi chinensis Sonn. (Sapindaceae) has been widely used in many cultures for the treatment of cough, flatulence, stomach ulcers, diabetes, obesity, testicular swelling, hernia-like conditions, and epigastric and neuralgic pains. The ethnopharmacologial history of L.

[Development of SSR markers in Litchi( Litchi chinensis)].

Yi chuan = Hereditas, 2008
A total of 100 SSR sequences were isolated and cloned by means of SAM (Selectively Amplified Microsatellite)techniques and another one was obtained by searching the NCBI and EMBL databases. There were 89 SSR sequences used for design of special primers. As a result, the primers were designed at 82 loci from 71 fragments.

A MATURITY STANDARD FOR LYCHEE (LITCHI CHINENSIS SONN.)

Acta Horticulturae, 1990
Marketing of immature fruit has had a major impact on the Lychee Industry in Queensland. Trials to develop a practical maturity standard have highlighted the utility of the Brix:acid ratio of the pulp. Cultivar variability, growing region and seasonality have all been assessed and shown to have a significant (P>0.05) although minimal effect ...

Flavonoids from the Pericarps of Litchi chinensis

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2014
A new methylene-linked flavan-3-ol dimer, bis(8-epicatechinyl)methane (1), was isolated from the pericarps of Litchi chinensis Sonn. (Sapindaceae), together with dehydrodiepicatechin A (2), proanthocyanidin A1 (3), proanthocyanidin A2 (4), (-)-epicatechin (5), 8-(2-pyrrolidinone-5-yl)-(-)-epicatechin (6), (-)-epicatechin 8-C-β-D-glucopyranoside (7 ...
