Cultivated tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) germplasm shows limited genetic variation. Many DNA marker systems have been used for diversity studies in wild and cultivated tomatoes, but their usefulness characterizing phenotypic differences among very closely related cultivars remains uncertain. We 19 selected simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers 7 amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) primer combinations to characterize 48 of tomato, mainly traditional from the south-east Spain. The...
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are major determinants of fruit flavor, a primary objective in tomato breeding. A recombinant inbred line (RIL) population consisting 169 lines derived from cross between Solanum lycopersicum and red-fruited wild species pimpinellifolium accession (SP) was characterized for VOCs three different seasons. Correlation hierarchical cluster analyses were performed on the 52 identified, providing tool putative assignation individual to metabolic pathways....
We studied the genetic variability of some traditional tomato ( Lycopersicon esculentum L. Mill.) cultivars Spain, and established their relationships using both simple sequence repeats (SSR) related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers. These included from different locations three main types, Muchamiel, De la pera, Moruno. Additionally we tested two other local cultivars, `Valenciano' `Flor de Baladre', plus a small sample commercial few wild species. Both types markers resolved groups,...
We have studied a genomic library of introgression lines from the S. pimpinellifolium accession TO-937 into genetic background "Moneymaker" cultivar in order to evaluate accession's breeding potential. Overall, no deleterious phenotypes were observed, and plants fruits phenotypically very similar those "Moneymaker", which confirms feasibility translating current results elite programs. identified chromosomal regions associated with traits that both vegetative (plant vigor, trichome density)...
The performance of snake melon [ Cucumis melo var. flexuosus (L.)] in organic farming was studied under high biotic and salt stress conditions. Soilborne diseases (mainly caused by Macrophomina phaseolina Neocosmospora falciformis ), combined with virus incidence Watermelon mosaic (WMV), Zucchini yellow (ZYMV), Tomato leaf curl New Delhi (ToLCNDV)] Podosphaera xanthii attacks, reduced yield more than 50%. Snake susceptibility to M. Monosporascus cannonballus proved pathogenicity tests, while...
Abstract Volatile compounds with a major contribution to aroma have been quantitatively determined in four traditional tomato cultivars and one commercial F1 hybrid. One of the was most appreciated for flavour overall acceptability tests performed using panel 30 untrained tasters. The same cultivar showed significantly higher contents hexanal cis ‐3‐hexenal volatile compounds, which previously reported be two important contributors flavour. On basis small number fruits per cultivar,...
The aim of this article is to analyse whether growing traditional horticultural varieties would be a profitable alternative so farmers could attend their activity in rural areas without the loss income. Besides, it intended provide results help promote vegetable consumption. Research focused on tomato, one main crops from important agricultural region South-Eastern Spain. proposed solution for growers improve profits cultivate tomato local markets. Whether consumers are willing pay premium...
Purpose This paper aims to further progress in research on perceived quality of fresh fruit and vegetables. It seeks develop discuss two models for tomato, including the price variable as an indicator tomato. Design/methodology/approach The data come from a survey 400 consumers that measures importance set tomato attributes Likert scale. were adjusted by means structural equation analysis. Two procedures followed model development: first started exploratory factor In second, relations...
Atlas of Image Guided Intervention in Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine Second Edition by James P. Rathmell. The combined efforts Rathmell's expertise gift for teaching together with illustrator Gary Nelson have yet again delivered one the most enjoyable books on image-guided interventions. This book continues tradition its predecessor, masterfully blending clear images diagrams succinct relevant content. edition improves upon first …
Choosing a valid procedure to measure willingness pay (WTP) is crucial for designating optimum price policies or evaluating the demand new products. This study compares two methods obtaining WTP in food context: random nth auction and an open-ended contingent valuation (CV) question. Participants were regular salad tomato buyers of Alicante they randomly assigned one treatments. The products about which would show their traditional varieties. Both treatments divided into three stages: first...
Nowadays, tomato breeders are trying to associate high fruit firmness, long shelf life, disease resistance, and good flavor; however, breeding for sensory quality has been severely restricted up date. In this study, a system specifically designed the analysis of low amounts material set tested quantify volatile aroma constituents tomatoes. Ten compounds with major contribution have quantitatively determined in two traditional types (Muchamiel De la Pera) one hybrid type (Odissea). Both...
Screening strategies based on interferon-γ release assays in tuberculosis contact tracing may reduce the need for preventive therapy without increasing subsequent active disease.We conducted an open-label, randomized trial to test noninferiority of a 2-step strategy with tuberculin skin (TST) followed by QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-Tube (QFT-GIT) as confirmatory (the TST/QFT arm) standard TST-alone (TST targeting household contacts patients tuberculosis. Participants were 24 months after...
