The molecular mechanisms underpinning apple root resistance to infection by Pythium ultimum have not been carefully investigated until recently. A panoramic and high-resolution picture of genome-wide transcriptional networks regulating the defense ac...

Anthocyanins are water-soluble pigments characterized by various intense colors found in fruits and vegetables. Scientific studies have shown growing evidence to support their health benefits. Therefore, estimating the anthocyanin content in food is...

An important stage in doubled haploid (DH) production is to evaluate and to differentiate the ploidy level of regenerant plants at least two–three times during the technology. Therefore, rapid and reliable methods are necessary for particular s...

Orychophragmus violaceus (L.) O. E. Schulz adapts to karst environments through a variety of adaptability mechanisms. However, the leaf intracellular water translocation and utilization mechanism is still unknown. This study hypothesizes that plants...

Collision is one of the main causes of mechanical damage to the seedling during transplanting. To reveal the impact damage characteristics of plug seedlings, the kinetics equations of seedling collision were established based on Hertz’s contact...

Moringa oleifera and M. peregrina are robust and fast-growing trees. These trees are considered some of the most highly valued trees worldwide because of their properties and uses. This study aimed to investigate and determine the content of phy...

Rosa roxburghii Tratt. is an emerging fruit endemic to China, which has the reputation of being the “King of Vitamin C” because of its abundance of vitamin C. However, it is also a recalcitrant species that imposes severe limitations on t...

This present study proposes an improvement for the postharvest preservation of the ‘Ercolini’ pear, a fruit that is little tested in the field, using a combination of ethylene elimination methods. The techniques used were potassium perman...

Camellia oleifera is a woody oil tree with overlapping flower bud differentiation and fruit maturation. Therefore, mechanical harvesting of fruits leads to flower abscission. The present study investigated the effects of flower number per tree on fru...

The GLK gene family is of great significance in regulating chloroplast development and participating in chlorophyll synthesis. However, the mechanism of GLK involvement in Citrus chlorophyll synthesis remains unclear. In this study, bioinformatics me...
