Abstract:
... Fruitlet abscission is typical to many fruit trees, including persimmon, (Diopyros kaki Thunb.), and often results in unstable fruit production and yield. We documented massive parthenocarpic fruitlet abscission in the persimmon cultivars 'Triumph' and 'Shinshu', which initiated soon after anthesis and peaked at 45 days post anthesis. In contrast, abscission of mature fruitlets 45–65 days after an ...

Abstract:
... Apolygus lucorum (Meyer-Dür) (Hemiptera: Miridae) is an important pest on cotton, fruit trees, tea and many other crops in China. Its small eggs are often laid inside plant tissues, making them difficult to detect and survey. In this study, the stalks of 20 plant species were assessed for use as oviposition traps for A. lucorum under field conditions in 2013, 2014 and 2017. During 2013–2014, A. lu ...

Abstract:
... Non-extractable/bound phenolics from plant matrices played an increasingly important role in human health benefits, but conventional solvent extraction missed high amounts of bound phenolics. In this study, Rubus idaeus L. leaves (RDLR) and seeds residues (RDSR) free of extractable phenolics were treated by different methods, respectively. The results revealed that acid, alkaline, and enzymatic hy ...

Abstract:
... Jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill.) is one of the most optimal fruit trees for economy and ecology in many semiarid regions. However, with water as a scarce resource, the strategy for irrigation and applied nitrogen (Napp) management need to be identified. The goal of this project was to determine the effects of irrigation and Napp on jujube yield, water use efficiency (WUE) and agronomic nitrogen use ...

Abstract:
... Cold stress is a significant threat for plant productivity and impacts on plant distribution and crop production, particularly so when it occurs during the growth phase. A developmental stage at risk is that of flowering, since a single stress event during sensitive stages, such as the full‐bloom stage of fruit trees can be fatal for reproductive success. Although pollen development and fertilizat ...

Abstract:
... The environmental and human health risk posed by veterinary antibiotics is of global concern. Antibiotic uptake by herbal plants has been studied, but little is known about perennial woody fruit crops. Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.), a longevial fruit tree, is routinely fertilized with animal manure and, therefore, may be at risk of antibiotic uptake into its fruits. This study investigated the d ...
