  • Reaction of Types of Citrus As Scion and As Rootstock to Xyloporosis Virus
    ARY A. SALIBE and SYLVIO MOREIRA Reaction of Types of Citrus as Scion and as Rootstock to Xyloporosis Virus THEVIRUS of xyloporosis (cachexia) (2,4, 10) is widespread in many commercial varieties of citrus ( 1, 5, 6, 8).For this reason, it is of special interest to know the reaction between it and various types of citrus that are presently used as rootstocks or may eventually be so used. This paper reports the results of tests conducted to determine this reaction for a number of different types of citrus. Materials and Methods In September, 1960, 2-year-old Cleopatra mandarin [Citrus reshni (Engl.) Hort. ex Tanaka] seedlings in the nursery were inoculated with xyloporosis virus by budding each seedling with three buds from a single old-line Bargo sweet orange [C. sinensis (L.) Osbeck] tree on Dancy tan- gerine (C. tangerina Hort. ex Tanaka) rootstock exhibiting the gummy- peg and wood-pitting type of xyloporosis symptoms. This tree was known to be carrying both xyloporosis and tristeza viruses but neither psorosis nor exocortis viruses. Two months later, each of two of these seedlings was budded just above the inoculating bud with one or another of 122 different types of citrus, each bud being taken from a tree of a nucellar line, except in the case of the monoembryonic types. Identical numbers of non-inocu- lated Cleopatra mandarin seedlings were budded with these citrus types to serve as control plants. All seedlings were cut back to allow the buds to sprout. They were inspected periodically by taking out a strip of bark at the bud-union, the last inspection being made 33 months after inocula- tion.

  • Improvement of Subtropical Fruit Crops: Citrus
    IMPROVEMENT OF SUBTROPICAL FRUIT CROPS: CITRUS HAMILTON P. ÏRAUB, Senior Iloriiciilturist T. RALPH ROBCNSON, Senior Physiolo- gist Division of Frnil and Vegetable Crops and Diseases, Bureau of Plant Tndusiry MORE than half of the 13 fruit crops known to have been cultivated longer than 4,000 years,according to the researches of DeCandolle (7)\ are tropical and subtropical fruits—mango, oliv^e, fig, date, banana, jujube, and pomegranate. The citrus fruits as a group, the lychee, and the persimmon have been cultivated for thousands of years in the Orient; the avocado and papaya were important food crops in the American Tropics and subtropics long before the discovery of the New World. Other types, such as the pineapple, granadilla, cherimoya, jaboticaba, etc., are of more recent introduction, and some of these have not received the attention of the plant breeder to any appreciable extent. Through the centuries preceding recorded history and up to recent times, progress in the improvement of most subtropical fruits was accomplished by the trial-error method, which is crude and usually expensive if measured by modern standards. With the general accept- ance of the Mendelian principles of heredity—unit characters, domi- nance, and segregation—early in the twentieth century a starting point was provided for the development of a truly modern science of genetics. In this article it is the purpose to consider how subtropical citrus fruit crops have been improved, are now being improved, or are likel3^ to be improved by scientific breeding. Each of the more important crops will be considered more or less in detail.

Box 303 Haidian District, Beijing 100083, China original scientific paper Summary Water-soluble polysaccharides from wolfberry (Lycium barbarum L.), sweet cherry ( Prunus avium L.) , kiwi (Actinidia chinensis L.) and cranberry fruits (Vaccinium macrocarpon Aiton) were extracted with boiling water, fractionated using ion exchange column chromatography, and characterized for molecular weight by high performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC). Monomer sugar composition was determined by gas chromatography (GC), and antioxidant activity was assayed by oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) and Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC). All four types of fruit investigated had four separate polysaccharide fractions; however, the polysaccharides from sweet cherries had higher molecular weight fractions. All the fruits contained rhamnose, fucose, arabinose, xylose, mannose, galactose, and glucose, but the polysaccharides from different fruits, and from cherries of different cultivars and maturity levels, had different ratios of simple sugars. TEAC and ORAC assays revealed that raw and purified polysaccharides from cherries, cranberries, kiwi, and wolfberries have antioxidant activity, and sweet cherry polysaccharides have the highest antioxidant activity.

The olive was native to Asia Minor and spread from Iran, Syria and Palestine to the rest of the Mediterranean basin 6,000 years ago. It is among the oldest known cultivated trees in the world - being grown before the written language was invented. It was being grown on the Isle of Crete by 3,000 BC and may have been the source of the wealth of the Minoan kingdom. The Phoenicians spread the olive to the Med- iterranean shores of Africa and Southern Europe.
