A Growing Passion Piacenza Parma Modena Reggio Ferrara Nell’Emilia BOLOGNA Ravenna a growing passion Piacenza Parma Modena Reggio Ferrara nell’Emilia BOLOGNA Ravenna Forlì Longiano Cesena Rimini NOI SIAMO QUI WE ARE HERE WIR SIND HIER NOUS SOMMES ICI NOSOTROS ESTAMOS AQUÍ a growing passion a growing passion THE HOLDING COMPANY SUBA SEMENTI found its origin in the Romagna Region, in 1974. During the years the Company affirmed itself as one of the major seeds producers both in domestic and worldwide market, dealing with the production of standard OP varieties as well as Hybrid ones, using the stockseed supplied by its customers. Always open-minded to new business opportunities, during the years, the Group put together its own activities establishing the Company SIPAS, specialized in packaging , the Company HORTUS, specialized in commercialisation of final products to retailers and large-scale retail dealers, with a sales network of more than 60 agents on the national territory, and in 2005 the Company SUBA FRANCE, created with the main target to increase and improve the production activity and to have a distribution platform in the centre of Europe. Today, with the acquisition of new realities such as ROYAL SLUIS, becoming later ROYAL SEEDS s.r.l., focused on professional market, to the most recent establishment of SUBA ALIMENTARE s.r.l. dealing with food market, the Group has considerably grown, with a current turnover of over 60 Million Euros, becoming by now a concrete and consolidated reality, well-known on the worldwide market. On 25th May 2011 the Holding SUBA SEEDS COMPANY S.p.A. was born. The new business organization has been necessary to answer to the expectations of a more and more exigent market, providing the Group with a more flexible, modern and integrated structure, and helping it to strengthen its Leading position in the production and marketing of vegetable seeds. THE PRODUCTION The production activity is organized as follows: . Management of multiplication contracts, even on a large scale, on behalf of the most important seeds companies in the world, using our own stockseeds or the ones supplied by the customers. Own production of a very wide range of vegetable seed varieties, preserving the varietal purity of stockseeds, in order to satisfy the different requirements coming from customers all over the world. SUBA SEEDS COMPANY S.p.A. makes use of production centers located both in Italy and abroad. The high standards of quality are granted by investments in technologically advanced structures and equipments. The use of the most modern machines for the seeds selection and processing, along with systems of dehumidification, disinfestation and treatment, allows to store the seeds at the right moisture level and to get a perfect conservation. The Group is in particular specialized in seed selection in order to reach a higher and higher purity, by the use of sophisticated machines for the sizing and the optical selection (based on seed colour). THE PRODUCTION ORGANIC AND FOR SPROUTING SUBA SEEDS COMPANY S.p.A. was one of the first Italian companies to get the “Organic certification”. This kind of production is carried out, respecting the strict CEE regulations, in surfaces completely separated from the “traditional” production to guarantee products free from contamination. The whole cycle of organic production is carried out under the constant control of the Official Body C.C.P.B. Another part of the activity is the production of seeds for sprouting purposes, obtained both by conventional and organic agriculture. A particular attention is paid to these seeds in order to reach seeds with the highest possible germination power and healthiness. THE LAB CONTROL In 2011 SUBA SEEDS COMPANY S.p.A. equipped itself with an internal laboratory, organized in a Microbiological Laboratory, for the control and identification of pathogens and deteriorating microorganisms through traditional instrumentation and a place dedicated to PCR REAL TIME, and in a Laboratory of Analysis and Quality test, for the control of features like GERMINATION – VIGOUR – PURITY – MOISTURE. TRIAL FIELD From a varietal point of view a further control is carried out by placing every year test-demonstratives fields. All produced seeds are sowed during several periods of the year and compared with varieties of national and foreign origin, in order to keep a high varietal standard and to control the healthiness of plants. Our Trial Fields are at the disposal of customers for guided visits. 40 years of experience and the passion for our work, the Mission of our Group, led to have in Investments, Organisation and Human capital the keys of our success. 1 2 INDEX SPECIES FAMILY PAGE SPECIES FAMILY PAGE Artichoke Compositae 4 Kohlrabi Cruciferae 62 Asparagus Liliaceae 5 Leek Liliaceae 63/64 Basil Labiatae 6/7 Lettuce Compositae 64/73 Bean Leguminosae 8/17 Melon Cucurbitaceae 73/75 Broad Beans Leguminosae 18/19 Onion Liliaceae 76/81 Broccoli Cruciferae 20 Okra Malvaceae 82 Broccoli Raab Cruciferae 21 Parsley Umbelliferae 83 Brussels Sprouts Cruciferae 22 Pea Leguminosae 84/87 Bunching Onion LilIaceae 22 Pepper Solanaceae 89/93 Cardoon Compositae 29 Pumpkin Cucurbitaceae 94/95 Carrot Umbelliferae 30/32 Radish Cruciferae 97/99 Caulifl ower Cruciferae 33/35 Red Cabbage Cruciferae 24 Celeriac - Celery Umbelliferae 36/37 Rocket Cruciferae 100 Chicory Compositae 38/46 Rutabaga/Swede Cruciferae 112 Chinese Cabbage Cruciferae 23 Saltwort/Agretti Chenopodiacae 101 Coriander Umbelliferae 47 Salsify Black Compositae 102 Cornsalad Valerianaceae 48 Salsify White Compositae 102 Cucumber Cucurbitaceae 49/51 Savoy Cabbage Cruciferae 27/28 Cucumber/Melon Cucurbitaceae 51/52 Spinach Chenopodiaceae 103/104 Eggplant Solanaceae 53/54 Sugar Pea Cucurbitaceae 88 Endive Curled Compositae 54/55 Summer Squash Cucurbitaceae 105/110 Endive Scarole Compositae 56 Swisschard Chenopociaceae 113/114 Feguz - Snake Melon Cucurbitaceae 51/52 Tetragonia Aizoaceae 115 Fennel Umbelliferae 57/58 Tomato Solanaceae 115/119 Fodder Beets Chenopodiaceae 59 Turnip Cruciferae 120/122 Garden Beets Chenopodiaceae 60 Watermelon Cucurbitaceae 123/124 Gourd Cucurbitaceae 96 White Cabbage Cruciferae 25/26 Herbs 127/128 Winter Radish Cruciferae 125/126 Kale Cruciferae 61 Winter Squash Cucurbitaceae 110/111 autore: Romano Ronchi stampa e grafi ca: LITO B.M.

CAGT, Athens, GA, 30602, USA c Department of Horticulture and Institute for Plant Breeding, Genetics & Genomics, University of Georgia, 1111 Plant Sciences Bldg., Athens, GA, 30602, USA ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Egusi watermelon (Citrullus mucosospermus), a close relative of sweet watermelon, is an economically important Citrullus lanatus crop grown in many West African countries for its protein and lipid rich edible seeds. Egusi watermelon seeds Citrullus mucosospermus have a thick, fleshy mucilaginous seed coat layer surrounding the seed coat which is unique to egusi watermelon. Egusi watermelon The egusi seed trait is controlled by a single recessive Mendelian locus, eg, located on chromosome 6 from Seed coat type 6.75 Mb to 11.03 Mb. This region is 4.28 Mb wide and contains 241 candidate genes. The region lacks adequate QTL-seq markers for fine mapping and for marker-assisted selection (MAS) of the egusi trait. In this study, we used QTL- KASP assays seq to validate the position of the eg locus and to identify SNP markers to refine the locus. A genomic region associated with the egusi trait was confirmed on chromosome 6 from 5.25 Mb to 7.85 Mb partially overlapping the previously mapped eg locus.

  • Mature Fruit Vegetables
    27 Mature Fruit Vegetables MIKAL E. SALTVEIT University of California, Davis, Davis, California, U.S.A. I. INTRODUCTION Many vegetables are classified botanically as fruit, that is, as the product of a ripening ovary and its associated tissue. Fruit vegetables are consumed when they are immature or mature. This distinction is useful because each division has similar postharvest behavior and storage requirements (Table 1). Examples of immature fruit vegetables include cucum bers {Cucumis sativus L.), summer squash (Cucurbita pepo L.), and sweetcorn (Zea mays L. var. rugosa Bonaf.), while examples of mature fruit vegetables are chili peppers {Capsi cum annum L. var. annum Longum Group), melons {Cucumis melo L.), pumpkins {Cucur bita pepo L. and C. maxima Duchesne ex Lam.), tomatoes {Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.), watermelons [Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. & Nak.], and winter squash {Cu curbita maxima L.). These mature fruit vegetables are derived from a taxonomically di verse number of families, but the major mature fruit vegetables are dominated by species from the Cucurbitaceae (melons, pumpkins, and winter squash), and Solanaceae (peppers and tomatoes). (See Table 2.) Mature fruit vegetables can be berries (peppers, tomatoes) and pepos (cucurbits) (Rubatzky and Yamaguchi, 1997). Melons comprise a diverse group of fruits, with the two major groups being those that have a netted surface (Reticulatus group: cantaloupe, muskmelon) and those that are smooth (Inodorus group: honeydew, winter melons). Most fruit vegetables are warm-season crops that are subject to chilling injury (CI). (See Chap. 19.) Exceptions include sweetcorn and such cool-season crops as peas {Pisum sativum L.), broad beans {Viciafaba L.), and dried chili peppers.

    Food Science and Quality Management www.iiste.org ISSN 2224-6088 (Paper) ISSN 2225-0557 (Online) Vol.27, 2014 Nutritional Composition and Oil Characteristics of Golden Melon (Cucumis melo ) Seeds Oluwatoyin H. Raji * Oluwaseun T. Orelaja Department of Food Technology, Moshood Abiola Polytechnic Abeokuta, P.O.box 2210 Abeokuta, Ogun state * E-mail of the corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract This study investigated the mineral and proximate composition of Golden/canary melon ( Cucumis melo ) seeds and the physiochemical properties of the seed oil. Proximate composition and physicochemical properties of oil were performed according to AOAC procedures. Minerals were determined using the method of Novozamsky et al. (1983). Results show that the seeds contained high percentage of crude fibre (33.94%) and low percentage of carbohydrate (3.14%). The seeds also contain high value of iron (136.5ppm), zinc (48.35ppm), manganese (25.70ppm), copper (15.40ppm) and low value of calcium (0.023±0.001%). Hexane extracted oil had acid value (2.68mgKOH/g) peroxide value (7.42mgKOH/g), iodine value of (117.43mgKOH/g), saponification value (191.42), free fatty acid (2.34) moisture content (5.68%), and refractive index (1.62) respectively. The seeds serve as good sources of crude fiber, fat and protein. Results also showed that the golden/canary melon oil is non rancid. Keywords: Physicochemical, Golden melon, Hexane extracted oil 1. Introduction Cucurbitaceae (Cucurbit) is an important family comprising one of the most genetically diverse groups of food plants. Most of the plants belonging to this family are frost sensitive and drought-tolerant (Whitaker and Bohn, 1950).
