Host choice and host leaving in Rhopalosiphum padi (Hemiptera: Aphididae) emigrants and repellency of aphid colonies on the winter host [PDF]

, 2000
Host choice and winter-host leaving in emigrants of bird cherry–oat aphid, Rhopalosiphum padi (Linnaeus), were investigated in the laboratory. In settling choice tests, emigrants collected from the winter host, Prunus padus, preferred this plant over ...

Almond (Amygdalus communis L.) Peptides Improve Scopolamine‐Induced Learning and Memory Impairment in Mice

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Figure Schematic showing the improvement of almond peptides on learning and memory impairment induced by scopolamine in mice. Almond peptides (APs) could improve the learning and memory in scopolamine‐induced mice by maintaining cholinergic system homeostasis and regulating Nrf2/Keap1 signaling pathway, via activating the Nrf2 transcription factor and ...

Combined effects of prohexadione‐calcium and growing environment on sweet cherry fruit quality and postharvest performance

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) is a high‐value fruit crop, but its commercial success is often limited by poor pigmentation, reduced firmness, and short shelf life. This study evaluated the effects of preharvest applications of prohexadione‐calcium (1.5 L ha−1) on fruit quality and storage performance in lowland and hilly orchards ...

Foodplant Processing Adaptations in Four \u3ci\u3eHyalophora\u3c/i\u3e Species (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae): Regional and Taxonomic Specialization [PDF]

, 2017
To determine whether local populations of four Hyalophora species (Lepidoptera: Satumiidae) had improved survival or were physiologically adapted for rapid and/or efficient growth on their local hosts, a series of larval feeding studies were conducted ...

Preharvest application of antagonistic yeasts for the control of fungal pathogens in organic peach and plum orchards

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The control of fungal diseases in organic fruit production remains a major challenge due to the limited availability of authorized phytosanitary tools. This study evaluates the efficacy of two antagonistic yeasts – Metschnikowia pulcherrima L672 and Hanseniaspora uvarum L793 – in organic peach (Prunus persica) and plum (Prunus ...

Valorization of fruit pits from Prunus laurocerasus and Prunus cerasifera as agro‐food byproducts: Bioactive properties and safety assessment for potential food additive applications

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Food additives are widely used to extend the shelf life of foods and maintain their quality. In this study, the potential of Prunus laurocerasus and Prunus cerasifera fruit pits (endocarp and seed) as food additives was investigated in terms of cytotoxicity, antigenotoxicity, antioxidant activity, enzymatic anti‐browning, and urease

Large‐scale phenotyping of physical and antioxidant traits in peach and apricot cultivars

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Peach and apricot are valued for their sensory attributes and nutritional value; however large‐scale evaluations of fruit quality and antioxidant‐related traits remain limited. This study aimed to quantify phenotypic diversity and examine relationships between fruit quality and antioxidant traits in 100 peach and 32 apricot ...
