Initial fruit set occurs shortly after anthesis and is associated with the beginning of swelling of the ovary. Final fruit set refers to the number of fruits on a tree when the fruits and seeds are mature (Sedgley and Griffin, 1989). When a flower has been successfully pollinated, growth ...
During this same period, beginning with initial small plot studies (Cardé et al., 1977; Charmillot, 1990) using hollow fiber and other dispensers, research on mating disruption of the codling moth had proceeded to the point where effective population suppression using improved, long-lasting ...
Ethylene production is a three-step reaction, beginning with transfer of the adenosyl group in ATP to L-methionine by SAM synthase, followed by conversion of l-methio- nine to 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid and ethylene by the enzymes ACS and ACO, respectively40. Our genomic and ...
The phenomenon known as aril paleness, or AW should not be confused with natural white arils in some pomegranate cultivars, because it is basically different. White arils lack anthocyanin production from the beginning, and there are pomegranate genotypes and cultivars possessing this trait, although ...
The past few months have been so incredibly busy, a whirlwind really. I am shooting for some amazing clients that I could only dream about at the beginning of 2018. I am in the planning phases of a very special project that I can’t wait to share more about soon. Needless to say, ...
regulation (FaSHN1, FaSHN2, FaSHN3), the synthesis of cutin (FaLACS2, FaGPAT3) and wax (FaCER1, FaKCS10, FaKCR1), and those involved in the transport of cutin monomers and wax constituents (FaABCG11, FaABCG32) all decreased as the fruit matured, beginning as early as 15 DAFB (Fig...

We found that the females were less abundant in the invasive populations studied, apparently since the beginning of the colonization. However, our results demonstrated that at the present time, females do not show any fecundity reduction, which clearly shows that P. mahaleb has established an ...
The combined effect of these parameters causes softer texture due to degradation of cell integrity, fast diffusion of the cellular content throughout the tissue, gelatinization of starch and lowering of the cell adhesion force at the beginning of the frying. But the hardness was happened due to ...
In doing so, character states are assigned nonnegative integer values, typically beginning with 0. Figure 2.6B shows the numerical coding of the matrix of Figure 2.6A. The states are numerically coded in sequence to correspond with the hypothesized transformation series for that character. For ...
