Let’s try to answer these burning apple science questions with an apple oxidation experiment that is pretty quick and easy to set up at home or in the classroom. Pair it with other fun apple science experiments! Pin Apple Oxidation Experiment This is a great experiment to set up using the...
The 60 upregulated DEGs represent genes expressed byP. expansumwithout the BCA in wounded apple tissue. GO analysis revealed that the majority of these genes are involved in oxidation-reduction process, followed by GO groups including low number of genes (<4) that are involved in biosynthetic pr...
and some oxidoreductases involved in oxidation and reduction reactions play important roles in the defense response of apple. The subclasses that were more enriched in biological processes were translation, protein transport, tricarboxylic acid cycle, defense response, and protein folding. The GO enrichme...
The 1 − VJ parameter monitors the PSII acceptor side and reflects the availability of oxidised plastoquinone for the reoxidation of QA− [59]. Despite statistical significance, 1 − VJ was negligibly lower in the treated parcel plants than in the corresponding controls (Figure 4a). 1 ...
The cell densities were adjusted to the sample with the lowest measured viable cell count, counted four days before the experiment for the stored cells. For the fresh culture, the expected viable cell count was derived from previous experiments. Sample amounts of 10 μL were plated on small ...
Internal necrosis was observed at, below, and above the graft union in declining trees in orchard A. These observations do not directly suggest a failure of the graft union, but we cannot entirely exclude this hypothesis. A failure of the graft union could impede the effective movement of wate...
to note that when MLH remained on the plant throughout the trial period (“N h”), we observed quite a remarkable difference with the other treatments in damage severity with 54% of the leaves showing full surface necrosis (Cl4), most of which had fallen by the end of the experiment. ...
The hypothesis of whether the optimum combination of weak acids (ascorbic acid, citric acid and potassium sorbate) and Moringa oleifera leaf powder will preserve the colour of the dried apples was tested in this study. The results of this work indicate that ascorbic acid and potassium sorbate did...
Looking at the enriched biological pathways that were down regulated in wounded tissue after three months (Figure 3, panel C) of conservation oxidation reduction processes, response to wounding, salycilic acid catabolic processes and other different defence responses (response to biotic stimulus, respons...
In this work, apple (Malus pumila) fruit is used as the drying product because it is one of the most consumed fruits in the world and easily browns due to oxidation [1,23]. The Breeze apple imported from Freshco, New Zealand, was bought in Winmart, Hanoi, Vietnam, with identical ripen...
