Peach (Prunus persica L. Batsch) is an economically important fruit in the Rosaceae family and is favored by consumers for its nutritional value. Genetic transformation is an important way to carry out genetic improvement of peaches and to conduct functional genomics studies. Although many...

This experiment was conducted on 2019 & 2020 to study the effect of root hormones within two different water irrigation pH. on five new almond ×peach hybrids that are nematode resistance and salt tolerance. Rootstock trees are nine years old grown in Horticulture Research Institute, A.R.C. and...

Utilizing transcriptome analysis, higher expression of genes encoding hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) synthetase in fruit stored at 0°C, where the expression pattern of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) correlated with softening and phenolic synthesis demonstrated more alterations than fruit storage at...

Irrigation with wastewater can be a solution to preserve and mitigate freshwater demand, in particular during drought periods. Unfortunately, wastewater, although being treated at different levels, could be a carrier of human pathogens (e.g., E. coli) and potentially contaminate crops for human...

The capacity of titanium dioxide (TiO₂) photocatalysis photocatalytic reactor to prevent and control pathogen infection in nectarine fruit packed in laminated nylon/LDPE, low density polyethylene and microperforated LDPE films was evaluated. Results showed that TiO₂ combined with microperforated...

Turnip yellows virus (TuYV; family Solemoviridae, genus Polerovirus, species Turnip yellows virus) is a genetically diverse virus that infects a broad range of plant species across the world. Due to its global economic significance, most attention has been given to the impact of TuYV on canola...

Six plants including Heuchera micrantha 'Peach Flambe', Cuphea hyssopifolia, were cultivated in the outdoor black cotton soil green walls, and the survival rate, growth state, coverage and ornamental effect were used as the indexes to analyze the growth adaptability and ornamental effect. Results...

Reduction of water availability imposes the agronomic issues of increasing the storage capacity of the soil and improving the use of rainwater or irrigation water. A field experiment in 2021 was conducted in a 5-year-old peach orchard in a Mediterranean environment to study the effect of mixed...

In the cultivation process, the application of organic fertilizers instead of chemical fertilizers can effectively improve soil structure, soil fertility, nutrient absorption, and fruit quality. In this study, the effects of potassium fulvic acid and compound microbial inoculant in rapeseed cake...

Mozambique is a country located in the southwest of the African continent. The country has great climatic diversity. The tropical monsoon (Am), tropical savanna (Aw), hot semiarid (BSh), and humid subtropical (Cwa and Cfa) and subtropical highland (Cwb) climates stand out. The regions classified a...
