Effect Of Rootstocks On Phytochemical Properties Of Apricot Fruit, Müttali̇p Gündoğdu
Effect Of Rootstocks On Phytochemical Properties Of Apricot Fruit, Müttali̇p Gündoğdu
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
The phytochemical influence of rootstocks on the Hacıhaliloğlu apricot cultivar was examined in this study. Myrobolan 29-C, Myrobolan GF-31, Marianna 2624, Pixy, and Tokaloğlu rootstocks were used and organic acid, sugars, vitamin C, total antioxidant capacity, and phenolic compounds were identified. The highest phenolic compounds and antioxidant capacity were observed in Tokaloğlu rootstock. While Myrobolan GF-31 stood out in terms of organic acids and vitamin C, Pixy stood out in terms of sugar. The highest sugar content (sucrose) was recorded as 24.178 mg 100 g-1 in 'Pixy'. It was determined that Tokaloğlu rootstock had increased organic acid (1030.730 mg 100 …

This research was carried out to assess the biochemical diversity of the fruits of mulberry genotypes grown in Muş Province in the eastern Anatolia region and to determine the genotypes available for breeding. Morphological and biochemical characteristics of 13 mulberry fruit genotypes, including 5 white (Morus alba) and 8 black (Morus nigra), were determined. Fruit antioxidant capacity was determined by Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity assay. Fruit weight, pH, soluble solid content, titratable acidity, vitamin C, and antioxidant capacity were 1.38-3.77 g, 4.77-6.79, 14.33%-23.50%, 0.53%-2.20%, 4.47-35.83 mg 100 g-1, and 4.33-13.63 µmol Trolox equivalent g, respectively, indicating enough diversity among genotypes …

Combined Effects Of Ethephon And Mepiquat Chloride On Late Blooming, Fruit Set, Andphytochemical Characteristics Of Black Diamond Plum, Kerem Mertoğlu, Yasemi̇n Evrenosoğlu, Mehmet Polat
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
This study was carried out in 2015 and 2016 to investigate the use of ethephon and mepiquat chloride for reduction of damage to flowering and fruit set caused by late spring frosts in Black Diamond plum. The single treatment of mepiquat chloride delayed full blooming by 5 days, while the ethephon treatment delayed blooming by 7 days. The interactive effect of the chemicals yielded more positive results in the delay of blooming, causing a delay of up to 11 days. An increase in fruit set was observed along with blooming. The fruit set percentage of the control was 4.18%, while …
Tree Vigor, Yield, Fruit Quality, And Antioxidant Capacity Of Apple (Malus × Domestica Borkh.) Influenced By Different Fertilization Regimes: Preliminary Results, Tomo Milosevic, Nebojsa Milosevic, Jelena Mladenovic
Tree Vigor, Yield, Fruit Quality, And Antioxidant Capacity Of Apple (Malus × Domestica Borkh.) Influenced By Different Fertilization Regimes: Preliminary Results, Tomo Milosevic, Nebojsa Milosevic, Jelena Mladenovic
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
Tree growth, productivity, fruit quality attributes, and antioxidant activity were tested in apple cultivar Idared under different fertilization treatments from the 22nd to the 23rd year after planting in a heavy acidic soil under western Serbian conditions. Treatments included the use of aged cattle manure, compound NPK (15:15:15) mineral fertilizer, a multinutrient fertilizer commercially named Italpolina (ITP) (NPK + organic carbon + humic acids), two types of N mineral fertilizers (calcium ammonium nitrate [CAN] and urea), and control (no fertilization). Results showed that Idared trees were more vigorous when fertilized with the two N fertilizers than when treated with another …
