Raspberries are rich in phenolic phytochemicals. To study the health benefits of raspberries, four fresh raspberry varieties (Heritage, Kiwigold, Goldie, and Anne) were evaluated for total antioxidant antiproliferative activities. The amount phenolics flavonoids each was determined. Heritage variety had highest content (512.7 +/- 4.7 mg/100 g raspberry) measured followed by Kiwigold (451.1 4.5 raspberry), Goldie (427.5 7.5 Anne (359.2 3.4 raspberry). Similarly, contained (103.4 2.0 tested,...
Abstract Introduction Nitazenes are a group of potent synthetic opioids that have had increasing prominence as novel psychoactive drugs in the last 5 years. We describe emergency department nitazene‐related presentations. Methods This is prospective series patients with analytically confirmed nitazene presentations identified by Emerging Drugs Network Australia and Victoria. Both studies' databases were searched between July 2020 February 2024 clinical data blood concentrations abstracted....
Rapid development of highly saturated genetic maps aids molecular breeding, which can accelerate gain per breeding cycle in woody perennial plants such as Rubus idaeus (red raspberry). Recently, robust genotyping methods based on high-throughput sequencing were developed, provide high marker density, but result some genotype errors and a large number missing values. Imputation reduce the values correct errors, current imputation require reference genome thus are not an option for most...
In order to determine the role of ethylene in post-harvest darkening berries among raspberry genotypes relationship between production, color stability, anthocyanin content, postharvest quality, and shelf life was examined five during storage at + 1 °C 7 °C. The differed significantly regard fruit which ranged from 0.5 2.3 ng kg−1 s−1 after harvest. A negligible increase production observed 'Heritage' 'Nantahala', while a pronounced occurred 'Crimson Treasure' breeding selection NY 10–24....
To determine the incidence, risk predictors and relative mortality of incident heart failure (HF) in patients following atrial fibrillation (AF) hospitalisation.The Western Australian Hospitalisation Morbidity Data Collection was used to identify aged 25-94 years with index (first-in-period) AF hospitalisation, but without a prior HF admission, between 2000 2013. We evaluated hospitalisation within 3 after impact on all-cause mortality.The cohort comprised 52 447 patients, 57.5% men, median...
This study introduces SeniorSafeAI, an open-source chatbot trained on a curated dataset of cybersecurity Q&As to assist senior citizens in identifying and responding cybercrimes. We evaluated eight large language models using both quantitative metrics (F1, BertScore, n-gram overlap) qualitative assessments (clarity, accuracy, relevance, usefulness). While results indicate modest performance, evaluations top models, including ChatGPT-4o Qwen2.5 variants, reveal notable discrepancy between...
Interest in molecular markers and genetic maps is growing among researchers developing new cultivars of Rubus L. (raspberry blackberry). Several traits interest fail to express seedlings or reliably some environments are candidates for marker-assisted selection. A number simple sequence repeat (SSR) derived from Fragaria (strawberry) available use with mapping populations. The objectives this study were test 142 these SSR screen raspberry blackberry parental genotypes potential existing...
Raspberry (Rubus idaeus) fruit have high anti-cancer potential in animal and vitro models. There is much interest quantifying total antioxidants, as well specific compounds, to eventually be used breed new cultivars that improved human health properties. of 64 genotypes were harvested for two seasons from Washington New York locations. Fruit analyzed soluble sugars, titrateble acids, pH phenolic compounds. Total anthocyanins ranged 0 400 mg/100 g yellow black raspberries, respectively....
Caneberry crops (raspberry and blackberry) are globally commercialized specialty with a high fresh market value. Field management of canes harvesting fruits can be complicated by the presence prickles (the botanically accurate term rather than spines or thorns) on stems, petioles, underside leaves. Both field fruit could simplified development cultivars prickle-free canes. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to analyze compare prickle in different Rubus species. Comparisons were made...
Lack of variation among black raspberry cultivars is thought to be a limiting factor in fruit production and breeding improved cultivars. An assessment the available diversity needed effectively develop Such an was done estimate genetic similarities for RAPD markers 16 genotypes determine these based on markers. In addition, ability distinguish between genotypes, two red ( Rubus idaeus L.), blackberry cultivar hybrid) determined. A similarity matrix from 379 calculated, phylogenetic tree...
Mapping quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with freeze tolerance was accomplished using a Citrus grandis (L.) Osb. × Poncirus trifoliata Raf. F 1 pseudo-testcross population. A progeny population of 442 plants acclimated and exposed to temperatures -9 °C -15 in two separate tests. subpopulation 99 genotyped for random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), cleaved sequence (CAPS), characterized region (SCAR), tagged site (STS) markers produce linkage map each parent. Potential QTL were...
Red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) is a globally commercialized specialty crop with growing demand worldwide. The presence of prickles on the stems, petioles and undersides leaves complicates both field management harvesting raspberries. An RNA sequencing analysis was used to identify differentially expressed genes in epidermal tissue prickled “Caroline” prickle-free “Joan J.” their segregating progeny. Expression patterns (DEGs) plants revealed downregulation some vital development-related...
Abstract Introduction Gamma‐hydroxybutyrate (GHB) use is associated with high risk of accidental overdose. This study examined the pre‐hospital circumstances, demographic characteristics and clinical outcomes analytically confirmed GHB emergency department (ED) presentations in Western Australia (WA). Methods case series was conducted across three WA EDs involved Emerging Drugs Network Australia, from April 2020 to July 2022. Patient demographics, drug exposure circumstances ED presentation...
Red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) is an expanding high-value berry crop worldwide. The presence of prickles, outgrowths epidermal tissues lacking vasculature, on the canes, petioles, and undersides leaves complicates both field management harvest. utilization cultivars with fewer prickles or prickle-free canes simplifies production. A previously generated population segregating for utilizing s locus between cultivar Joan J (ss) prickled Caroline (Ss) was analyzed to identify genomic region...
Adequate weed control in the establishment year of matted-row strawberries ( Fragaria × ananassa ) is crucial for long-term viability plantings. Suppression growth until new strawberry plants are established and runners rooted an effective strategy Three biodegradable mulch films were compared to standard establishing strawberries. Two test products using a polymer, either clear or black, covering brown 40-lb kraft paper (IP40 Clear IP40 Black, respectively). The third material was Planters...
