  • A Comparative Taxonomic Study of Seeds of Some Plants of Rosaceae Family in Iraq
    1 Plant Archives Vol. 20, Supplement 2, 2020 pp. 589-595 e-ISSN:2581-6063 (online), ISSN:0972-5210 A COMPARATIVE TAXONOMIC STUDY OF SEEDS OF SOME PLANTS OF ROSACEAE FAMILY IN IRAQ Zainab Abid Aun Ali Department of Biology, College of science for women, University of Baghdad, Iraq Abstract Seeds of 12 types of fruits of plants within the family Rosaceae, representing seven genera cultivated in Iraq were examined. The study included Pyrus communis L., Eriobotrya japonica (Thunb.) Lindl., Cydonia oblonga Mill., Crataegus azarulus L., Malus domestica Borkh., Prunus persica (L.) Batsch., Prunus persica var. nectarina (Sol.) Maxim., Prunus persica var. platycarpa (Decne.) L.H. Bailey, Prunus domestica L., Prunus domestica var. italica (Borkh.) Schneid., Prunus cerasus L ., Prunus armaniaca L. and Rosa damascene Mill. Seeds were glabrous except of R. damascene were pubescence. Seeds of Prunus were coated by brown thin dry cover (testa) and in other genera were near this color either reddish brown as of M. domestica or light brown as of C. azarulus or dark brown– black as of E. japonica . Most seeds were ovate or obovate but were elliptic in P. armaniaca , puffed Oblong in E. japonica , spherical in P. persica var. platycarpa and were hemi spherical in C. azarulus . Seeds of Prunus were covered by hard woody endocarp; each type has different color and surface sculptures. There were variations in the surface configurations of endocarps and seeds between genera; it can be used as taxonomic evidences in separating the nearest taxa. Keywords : Rosaceae, Pyrus , Eriobotrya , Cydonia , Crataegus , Malus. Prunus, Rosa Introduction have five petals (simple flowers), whereas high numbers of Rosaceae is cosmopolitan, 115 genera and 3200 petals (double flowers) are typical attributes of most of the species, with economic importance especially in the tropical cultivated roses (Annick Dobois et al., 2010).

  • Pospiviroidae Viroids in Naturally Infected Stone and Pome Fruits In
    21st International Conference on Virus and other Graft Transmissible Diseases of Fruit Crops Pospiviroidae viroids in naturally infected stone and pome fruits in Greece Kaponi, M.S.1, Luigi, M.2, Barba, M.2, Kyriakopoulou, P.E.I I Agricultural University of Athens, Iera Odos 75, 11855 Athens, Greece 2 CRA-PAV, Centro di Ricerca per la Patologia Vegeta le, 00156 Rome, Italy Abstract Viroid research on pome and stone fruit trees in Greece is important, as it seems that such viroids are widespread in the country and may cause serious diseases. Our research dealt with three Pospiviroidae species infecting pome and stone fruit trees, namely Apple scar skin viroid (ASSVd), Pear blister canker viroid (PBCVd) and Hop stunt viroid (HSVd). Tissue-print hybridization, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), cloning and sequencing techniques were successfully used for the detection and identification of these viroids in a large number of pome and stone fruit tree samples from various areas of Greece (Peloponnesus, Macedonia, Thessaly, Attica and Crete). The 58 complete viroid sequences obtained (30 ASSVd, 16 PBCVd and 12 HSVd) were submitted to the Gen Bank. Our results showed the presence of ASSVd in apple, pear, wild apple (Malus sylvestris), wild pear (Pyrus amygdaliformis) and sweet cherry; HSVd in apricot, peach, plum, sweet cherry, bullace plum (Prunus insititia), apple and wild apple; and PBCVd in pear, wild pear, quince, apple and wild apple. This research confirmed previous findings of infection of Hellenic apple, pear and wild pear with ASSVd, pear, wild pear and quince with PBCVd and apricot with HSVd.

  • Fruit Trees, Nut Trees, Plants, Seeds, Books & Sundries
    Agroforestry Research Trust Fruit trees, nut trees, plants, seeds, books & sundries www.agroforestry.co.uk Agroforestry: what is it? The simplest definition of agroforestry is that it is the integration of trees and agriculture/horticulture to create a more diverse growing system. In agroforestry the aim is to promote more use of perennial crops, notably tree and shrub crops, because they are more resilient, more sustainable and ecologically sound. Agroforestry systems can vary in complexity from the very simple, eg occasional trees planted in pastures to provide shade, emergency forage and nitrogen (via nitrogen- fixing bacteria), to the more complex systems like forest gardens, which may utilise hundreds of species to create a self-sustaining and interconnected system. The Agroforestry Research Trust The Trust is a registered charity, set up to educate and research into perennial crops and agroforestry. We have 20 acres of trial grounds in Devon including forest gardens and other systems. There are public guided tours through the growing season of our sites (see website at https://www.agroforestry.co.uk/research-site-tours/ for info and dates). We also run courses and seminars in forest gardening, growing nut crops and the forest garden greenhouse (with subtropical forest garden) in Devon. Dates and more info on website at https://www.agroforestry.co.uk/product-category/courses/. The Forest Garden Network This is an informal network of people planning or already cultivating their own forest gardens or agroforestry systems on farms, with the aim to facilitate visits to each other’s sites – one of the best ways to improve our knowledge about temperate agroforestry.

  • The Polyphenolic Composition and Antioxidant Capacity of Yellow European Plums (Prunus Domestica L.) and Novel Golden Prunes
    The Polyphenolic Composition and Antioxidant Capacity of Yellow European Plums (Prunus domestica L.) and Novel Golden Prunes by Carolyn Dowling, BSc. A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science (MSc.) in Plant Agriculture University of Guelph Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Carolyn Dowling, February 2014 THE POLYPHENOLIC COMPOSITION AND ANTIOXIDANT CAPACITY OF YELLOW EUORPEAN PLUMS (PRUNUS DOMESTICA L.) AND NOVEL GOLDEN PRUNES Carolyn Dowling Advisor: Dr. Jayasankar Subramanian University of Guelph, 2014 Abstract Although plums and their dried counterparts, prunes, have been distinguished as abundant sources of nutrients, the diversity of unique phytochemicals and the effects of processing on these bioactive compounds have not been investigated in detail. Among the phytochemicals present in plums, phenolic compounds are free radical scavengers with antioxidant potential that contribute to health-promoting effects in combating a number of chronic and degenerative diseases. The yellow European plums (YEPs) (Prunus domestica L.) developed at Vineland Research Station demonstrate comparable nutritional properties to traditional dark purple or blue-black European prune-making plums and superior phenolic contents and antioxidant capacity following dehydration. The plums and respective “golden prunes” were characterized through the measurement of total and specific phenolic contents and associated antioxidant capacities, as well as the determination of specific sugar compositions and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities before and after the implementation of optimized osmotic dehydration processing techniques involving traditional sulfite and nutrient-rich alternatives. The development of novel golden prunes provides the Ontario tender fruit market with an avenue for extending the short post-harvest storage and shelf-life characteristics of tender fruit while providing the superior health benefits of fresh fruit to an aging consumer population on a year-round basis.

Even though there are over 6000 plum cultivars belonging to 19–40 species, there is still the need to create new cultivars due to the demands of growers and consumers. In addition, the large plum-growing countries (Romania, Serbia, Germany, Bulgaria, etc.) have decreased production due to plum pox virus (PPV) attack. Therefore, these countries developed breeding programs with the following objectives: resistance/ tolerance to PPV, productivity, fruit quality, late blooming, self-fertility, different ripening times, short growing period, spur fructification, etc. Using different breeding methods (controlled hybridization, open pollination, selection in wild population on Prunus sp., and mutagenesis), in the last years, over 450 plum cultivars were released, from which 70% represent European cultivars and 30% Japanese cultivars. Keywords: plum, breeding, objectives, genetic resources, achievements 1.

  • Virus Diseases and Noninfectious Disorders of Stone Fruits in North America
    / VIRUS DISEASES AND NONINFECTIOUS DISORDERS OF STONE FRUITS IN NORTH AMERICA Agriculture Handbook No. 437 Agricultural Research Service UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE VIRUS DISEASES AND NONINFECTIOUS DISORDERS OF STONE FRUITS IN NORTH AMERICA Agriculture Handbook No. 437 This handbook supersedes Agriculture Handbook 10, Virus Diseases and Other Disorders with Viruslike Symptoms of Stone Fruits in North America. Agricultural Research Service UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Washington, D.C. ISSUED JANUARY 1976 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office Washington, D.C 20402 — Price $7.10 (Paper Cover) Stock Number 0100-02691 FOREWORD The study of fruit tree virus diseases is a tedious process because of the time needed to produce experimental woody plants and, often, the long interval from inoculation until the development of diagnostic symptoms. The need for cooperation and interchange of information among investigators of these diseases has been apparent for a long time. As early as 1941, a conference was called by Director V. R. Gardner at Michigan State University to discuss the problem. One result of this early conference was the selection of a committee (E. M. Hildebrand, G. H. Berkeley, and D. Cation) to collect and classify both published and unpublished data on the nomenclature, symptoms, host range, geographical distribution, and other pertinent information on stone fruit virus diseases. This information was used to prepare a "Handbook of Stone Fruit Virus Diseases in North America," which was published in 1942 as a mis- cellaneous publication of the Michigan Agricultural Experiment Station. At a second conference of stone fruit virus disease workers held in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1944 under the chairmanship of Director Gardner, a Publication Committee (D.
