Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSusceptibility of Mango Varieties to Anthracnose Fruit Rot in South West NigeriaCharles Awa OnyeaniAnthracnose fruit rot is the most devastating postharvest disease of mango fruits in Nigeria. This study, investigated the susceptibility of mango varieties commonly grown in South West Nigeria to fruit anthracnose. Four locations (Ayetoro, Ibadan, Ogbomosho and Agege) in South west Nigeria, which fall along mango production belt, were selected for this study. Physiologically matured mango fruits freshly harvested separately … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 5 Apr 2017 · 8,835 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCallus Induction and Cellular Suspensions from Murtilla (Ugni molinae Turcz.) for trans-resveratrol ProductionSalazar Carolina, Bustos Evelyn, Perez Claudia et al.The present study reports for the first time the quantification of resveratrol and the use of biotechnological techniques applied to stilbene productions in species from genus Ugni and calli production from adult explants (fruits). Resveratrol is synthesized by a series of families of higher plants, which has generated much interest in recent years for its antioxidant, anticancer and antitumor properties, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 24 Jan 2017 · 7,946 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlavonoids from the Zizania latifolia Bracts: Extraction Optimization, Antioxidant Activity and Exploration in Strawberry PreservationTong Wang, Yuzhu Zhang, Lijie Ben et al.Zizania latifolia bracts are Z. latifolia-based agricultural waste materials, distributed in various parts of the world. In the current study, the Response Surface Method (RSM) was used to optimize the cellulase-assisted extraction of Total Flavonoids from Z. latifolia bracts (TFZB). Then, the in vitro antioxidant capacity and the potential effect on strawberry preservation were assessed. The results showed that the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2021 · 6,368 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFine-Tuned MobileNet Classifier for Classification of Strawberry and Cherry Fruit TypesVenkatesh, Nagaraju Yallappa, Siddhanth Udayashankar Hegde, Sangeetha Raj StalinThis paper proposed an accurate, fast and reliable strawberry, cherry fruit detection and classification system for the automated strawberry cherry yield estimation. State-of-the-art deep learning-based fine-tuned MobileNet Convolutional Neural Network is developed to detect and classify strawberry and cherry fruit types in the outdoor field. The proposed CNN model is trained on 4250 strawberry fruit images, 3878 Cherry fruit images … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 20 Jan 2021 · 7,956 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,527 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRESISTANT STARCH AND BIOACTIVE CONTENTS OF UNRIPE BANANA FLOUR AS INFLUENCED BY HARVESTING PERIODS AND ITS APPLICATIONAnuchita Moongngarm, Wanassanun Tiboonbun, Mai Sanpong et al.Recently, various innovative products from unripe banana flour have been reported as it is high in resistant starch and other important compounds. The harvesting period of the unripe banana fruit is one of the key factors affecting the quality of the unripe banana flour in terms of resistant starch and bioactive compound content. The study aimed to investigate the effect … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 12 Aug 2014 · 11,385 accessesView PDFCite

The seedlings were planted in plastic containers containing 20 L of coconut-coir-dust substrate placed inside a plastic-roofed net house and received Resh’s Tropical Dry Summer nutrient solution at a … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2013 · 7,495 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPolygalacturonase and Pectin Methylesterase Activities of CaCl2 Treated Red-Fleshed Dragon Fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) Harvested at Different MaturityY. B. Awang, S. H. Chuni, M. T.M. Mohamed et al.Fruits harvested at different maturity possess different biochemical constituents and physiological properties that make the fruits may react somewhat differently to the postharvest treatment. A study to examine the activity of Polygalacturonase (PG) and Pectin Methylesterase (PME) enzymes during storage in dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) harvested at 28 days (Index 3) and 34 days (Index 5) after anthesis and postharvest … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 23 Jul 2013 · 8,436 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Antioxidants in Oil Palm Empty Fruit BunchesNg Mei Han, Choo Yuen MayThe oil palm Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB) undergoes sterilization before being threshed to separate the fruits from the bunch. Upon threshing, the fruits were pressed for its oil while the now Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB) will be discarded or used as biomass. It is believed that the EFB contains small amount of oil as well as phytonutrients which contain antioxidative … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 5 Sep 2012 · 7,187 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Mulberry Fruit Powder in Animal Model of StrokePratchaya Kaewkaen, Terdthai Tong-Un, Jintanaporn Wattanathorn et al.Stroke is the leading cause of death and the important cause of disability worldwide.
