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 ...

Fruit-derived phenolic compounds and pancreatic cancer: Perspectives from Australian native fruits
Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 2014Pancreatic cancer is a devastating cancer that presents late, is rapidly progressive and has current therapeutics with only limited efficacy. Bioactive compounds are ubiquitously present in fruits and numerous studies in vitro are addressing the activity of these compounds against pancreatic cancer, thus studies of specific bioactive compounds could ...

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.

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.

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.

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 ...

Development and Consumer Evaluation of a Native Fruit Product
Canadian Institute of Food Science and Technology Journal, 1979Abstract Processes for extracting the juice from saskatoon, chokecherry and rose hip, together with jelly formulae have been developed. Test marketing of 600 and 1050 packs each containing one 57 ml jar of each of saskatoon, chokecherry, rose hip jelly and red clover honey was conducted for two consecutive years.

Australian Native Fruits and their Products and Preservation
Australia is home to thousands of species of unique plant life, including many that can be used for food. Australian native fruits in particular have incredibly high amounts of vitamins, minerals, dietary fibre, protein, and antioxidants. These include finger limes, Kakadu plums, muntries, and riberries. However, their wider use is limited by a lack ofopenaire +1 more source
