MOLECULAR WEIGHT OF PATATIN, A MAJOR POTATO TUBER PROTEIN

Journal of Food Biochemistry, 1984
Patatin, a major protein of potato tubers, exists as a 88 ± 4 kilodalton dimer in dilute buffers at pH 7 or 9.6. The dimer was found in fresh as well as lyophilized preparations. Treatment with SDS resulted in dissociation to monomer.

N‐terminal sequences of high molecular weight allergens from celery tuber

Clinical & Experimental Allergy, 2000
BackgroundCelery tuber is an important source of food allergens. Low molecular weight celery allergens were identified as homologues of Bet v 1 and profilin. Little is known about the relevant allergens with molecular weights between 45 and 60 kDa, which cross‐react with other plant food and pollen allergens.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to ...

Effects of growing environments, planting date, and stem treatments on sandersonia tuber weight and secondary tuber development

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, 1997
Abstract Sandersonia (Sandersonia aurantiaca Hook) tuber growth and secondary tuber development were assessed in two growing environments (a greenhouse and outdoors), at three planting dates (1 October, 1 December, and 1 February) and with six stem pruning treatments. Tubers of c. 1 g were used. The pruning treatments consisted of cutting the stem just

The distributions of tuber sizes in droughted and irrigated crops of potato. II. Relation between size and weight of tubers and the variability of tuber-size distributions

Potato Research, 1988
Tubers from six cultivars of potato grown in irrigated and droughted conditions were examined to show whether observed differences in grade distributions were simple consequences of differences in yield or were the results of changes in tuber shape or in the relative variability (Rv=σ/μ) of the distributions.

Daminozide reduces mean weight of potato tubers but fails to increase uniformity

Australian Journal of Experimental Agriculture, 1988
At 3 sites in South Australia daminozide reduced mean potato tuber weight by 9-13% (P<0.05). Total yield of potatoes was reduced by 6-11%, although the effect was significant (P< 0.01) at only 1 site (Purnong Landing, reduction 11%). There were no effects of daminozide on tuber number, uniformity of tuber weight, specific gravity of tubers (at ...

T2 weighted MRI for assessing renal lesions in transgenic mouse models of tuberous sclerosis

European Journal of Radiology, 2012
Transgenic mouse models of tuberous sclerosis (TSC) develop renal cysts, cystadenomas, solid adenomas and carcinomas. Identification and characterisation of these lesions in vivo may help in TSC pre-clinical trials. This study was to evaluate T2 weighted MRI for assessment of renal lesions in two Tsc mouse models.Tsc1(+/-), Tsc2(+/-) and wild type mice

Administration of Cyperus rotundus tubers extract prevents weight gain in obese Zucker rats

Phytotherapy Research, 2007
AbstractCyperus rotundus L. (Cyperaceae; C. rotundus) is an Indian medicinal plant demonstrated to exert multiple health benefits. The purpose of the present study was to test the biological efficacy of C. rotundus tubers extract on weight control in obese Zucker rats. It was demonstrated that administration of 45 or 220 mg/kg/day of C. rotundus tubers

Effects of nutrition, planting density, and stem pruning treatments on tuber weight and secondary tuber development inSandersonia aurantiaca

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, 1999
Abstract The effects of two nutrient rates (Nutricote at 1.0 or 3.0 kg/m3 of potting mix), three plant densities (128, 256, and 384 tubers/m2), and three stem pruning/leaf removal treatments on tuber weight and the incidence of secondary tuber production in Sandersonia aurantiaca (Hook.) were assessed in a factorial experiment. The pruning/leaf removal

Qualitative and quantitative evaluation for the heterogeneity of cortical tubers using structural imaging and diffusion-weighted imaging to predict the epileptogenicity in tuberous sclerosis complex patients

Neuroradiology, 2022
We aimed to evaluate whether the heterogeneity of tuber imaging features, evaluated on the structural imaging and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map, can facilitate detecting epileptogenic tubers before surgery in tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) patients.Twenty-three consecutive patients, who underwent tuber resection at our institute, were ...

Estimation of Water Potential in Potato Tuber from Changes in Weight and Volume

2020
The pressure potential of whatever solution at any atmospheric pressure is conveniently zero. Similarly, the water potential of one sucrose solution is equal to osmotic potential. The water potential values obtained by this technique are in general more negative than those obtained by other techniques.
