Antioxidants are usually considered with regard to plant defense mechanisms due the oxidative stress or their importance for human health both. In present research, a comprehensive study was made test relationship between antioxidant content in apple peel and whole fruit two growing seasons. were mainly localized peel, but cultivars exhibited very high biodiversity distribution pattern. High correlation coefficients glutathione reductase catalase activity as well ascorbate, glutathione,...
The various organs of the Polish cultivars buckwheat were evaluated for their flavonoid content (rutin, quercetin, (+)‐catechin, and (−)‐epicatechin) phenolic acid (chlorogenic, caffeic, ferulic, gallic acids) to test contribution allelopathic activity. main compound found in above‐ground was rutin, followed by chlorogenic acid, then (−)‐epicatechin. activity, based on specific activity identified compounds lettuce seedling growth, evaluated. Gallic had highest quercetin lowest. rutin at...
The kiwiberry (Actinidia arguta) has become increasingly popular not only due to its taste, but also benefits for health. contains a range of bioactive compounds, with antioxidant activity predominantly associated phenolic compounds and ascorbate. aim this study was determine the total ascorbate concentration peel flesh, as well ability in six cultivars relative commercially cultivated kiwifruit 'Hayward' deliciosa). Kiwiberry up 12.6 3.0 times richer phenolics respectively than flesh....
The contents of ascorbate, thiols, and phenolic compounds antioxidative enzyme activity were measured in the apple peel 56 genotypes after harvest two vegetation seasons, 2003 2004. main reason great interest these bioactive is their well-established physiological role all living systems. biggest differences between tested noted for ascorbate peroxidase glutathione reductase (GR) activity, followed by total phenolics, concentration; least difference was observed case catalase. A large...
On the basis of fresh weight apple fruit and its peel concentration bioactive compounds, total quantity l-cysteine, glutathione, ascorbate, flavonols, anthocyanins as well phenolics was evaluated in a wide range cultivars two growing seasons. Apple contributor to entire examined components considerably differed relation investigated compounds also highly cultivar dependent. A great amount flavonols found (∼40%), followed by ascorbate (∼30%) (∼20%), while lowest contribution assessed for...
The quality of fruit as a source bioactive ingredients is related to the genetic characteristics plants, but it can also be modified by growing conditions. Therefore, long-term research extremely valuable in evaluating various crop especially novel ones. aim was test four popular European kiwiberry (Actinidia arguta) cultivars ('Geneva', 'Bingo', 'Weiki', 'Anna') terms selected morphological features, yield, and chemical composition well their variability over 3 years. It concluded that...
Actinidia arguta known as the 'kiwiberry' or 'mini kiwi' is relatively new among cultivated berry species. Recent studies indicate kiwiberry fruit could be an important source of many health-promoting compounds. A knowledge-based fertilisation concept was evolved to define optimal strategies for feeding with nitrogen (N) because a deficit and excess N both have negative impact on plants surrounding environment.Kiwiberry yield internal quality significantly depended soil level, cultivar...
More than ten thousand apple cultivars with high variability in the quality traits and year-round availability place apples at forefront of consumed fruits. Yet consumers producers alike are still looking for new specific attributes such as plant resistance to biotic abiotic stresses well a health-promoting potential. The model plants were three cultivars: ‘Chopin’ an old ‘Granny Smith’, scab resistant green peel, red-skinned cultivar ‘Gala Schniga’. Apple peel flesh analyzed separately...
Optimal nitrogen availability is necessary to keep high photosynthetic efficiency and in consequence, good physiological condition growth of plants. In order examine the effect N nutrition on apparatus performance we used chlorophyll a fluorescence (ChF) technique two differing Actinidia cultivars aimed select most reliable ChF parameters showing deficiency. The 4-years-old specimens growing an experimental plantation were treated with three doses data collected during years. results showed...
The kiwiberry (Actinidia arguta (Siebold et Zucc.)Planch ex Miq) has become a widely studied species in recent years due to its high resistance low temperature and content of health-promoting phytochemicals.The aim this study was verify the effect pre-storage application oxalic acid, salicylic acid acetylsalicylic calcium chloride (CaCl 2 ) 1-methlycyclopropene (1-MCP) on quality changes cultivar 'Weiki' during cold storage.During six weeks storage fruit firmness, titratable acidity total...
Abstract Kiwiberry ( Actinidia arguta ) is dioecious species which now commercially grown in several countries worldwide. A study was conducted to determine the influence of five pollen sources derived from A. (three cultivars), var. purpurea ‘Rot’ and chinensis deliciosa ‘Tomuri’ on fruit seed characteristics for three female cultivars. Average weight biochemical features—fruit total phenolic concentration (TPC), ascorbate (ASC), pigments, antioxidant activity proteins profile were...
Abstract The content of calcium and potassium lipoxygenase (LOX) activity as well the expression LOX encoding gene in fruit apple cultivars that are both susceptible resistant to bitter pit were evaluated. Fruits collected analyzed after harvest 2004 growing season again four months common cold storage. main reason was explanation relationship between those K:Ca ratio on occurrence during biggest differences tested noted Ca content, followed by lowest content. but without symptoms exhibited...
Nutrient use efficiency and overall plant fertilization strategies are key issues in food production increasingly adverse environmental conditions. The Actinidia arguta (Siebold et Zucc.) Planch. ex Miq. is a species that has increased cultivation recent years. aim of this study was to assess seasonal leaf macronutrient changes the relationship between soil nitrogen (N) fertility N, as well concentration other essential macronutrients. experiment conducted during growing seasons 2015–2016...
Abstract Seasonal and cultivar variations of the phenolic, thiol, ascorbate compound contents as well antioxidative enzyme activity in six cultivars highbush blueberry were investigated. Berries ‘Earlyblue’, ‘Patriot’, ‘Bluecrop’, ‘Duke’, ‘Darrow’ ‘Lateblue’ sampled 2005 2006. Chlorogenic acid, (-)-epicatechins, CAT found to be at lowest degree affected by growing season conditions. ‘Seasonal effect’ had, however, a huge impact on GR activity, L-cysteine glutathione content, suggesting that...
Actinidia arguta (Siebold et Zucc.) Planch. ex Miq. is functionally a cryptic dioecious plant and successful pollination crucial for achieving high quality fruit. The extent bases of morphological variability in female genotypes have been well studied, but here we focus on the males. Mature plants seven male A. were studied 2016 2017 during which suite phenological features was measured ten randomly chosen one-year-old canes each plant. This analysis complemented by two other, specialized...
The aim of this study was to assess the enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant status kiwiberry (Actinidia arguta) leaf under different N regimes tested three times in field conditions during 2015 growing season two cultivars (‘Weiki’ ‘Geneva’). Leaf total capacity using ABTS, DPPH FRAP tests evaluated years 2017, which experienced weather conditions. Both exhibited a significant fall L-ascorbic acid (L-AA) reduced glutathione (GSH) as well global content these compounds season, while...
