Composition of native American fruits in the Pacific Northwest
Journal of the American Dietetic Association, 1982Thirteen species of native fruits eaten by Pacific Northwest Indians were analyzed for proximate composition, calcium, iron, magnesium, zinc, and ascorbic acid content. To determine relative nutrient contributions of these fruits to the diet, these data were combined with anthropological data, and a comparison with the RDA was made. The fruits analyzed

Non‐native fruit trees facilitate colonization of native forest on abandoned farmland
Restoration Ecology, 2016AbstractEcological restoration of abandoned, formerly forested farmland can improve the delivery of ecosystem services and benefit biodiversity conservation. Restoration programs can involve removing isolated, non‐native trees planted by farmers for fruit or wood.

ABSTRACT: Invasive, non-native plants threaten forest ecosystems by reducing native plant species richness and potentially altering ecosystem processes. Seed dispersal is critical for successful invasion and range expansion by non-native plants; dispersal is likely to be enhanced if they can successfully compete with native plants for disperser ...

Organic Acid Composition of Native Black Mulberry Fruit
Chemistry of Natural Compounds, 2004Using HPLC, organic acids from the fruit of black mulberry (Morus nigra L., Moraceae) were quantified. Malic acid was predominant with a range of 35.4-198.5 mg/g. Citric acid was the second in abundance, with a range of 5.5-23.4 mg/g, followed by tartaric, oxalic, and fumaric with an average of 4.16, 0.62, and 0.019, respectively.

Australian Native Fruits and their Products and Preservation
2023Australia is home to thousands of species of unique plant life, many of which have long been appreciated by First Nations Australians and used for food, fibre, and medicine. Having evolved in Australia, they are inherently well-adapted to its droughts, floods, and specific climate and soil.

Characterization of native and yeast-expressed tomato fruit fructokinase enzymes
Phytochemistry, 2001Three fructokinase isozymes (FKI, FKII, FKIII) were separated from both immature and ripe tomato fruit pericarp. All three isozymes were specific for fructose with undetectable activity towards glucose or mannose. The three isozymes could be distinguished from one another with respect to response to fructose, Mg and nucleotide donor concentrations and ...

Breeding Rosa taxa native to the Carpathian Basin for fruit purposes — fruit quality
Acta Agronomica Hungarica, 2010The aim of dogrose breeding for fruit purposes is to select genotypes suitable for cultivation and to produce new genotypes by crossing. Physical and chemical analyses, prospective genotypes have been developed from R. inodora , R. corymbifera, R. rubiginosa and R.
