Using modified atmosphere packaging for storing ‘van dyke’ mango (mangifera indica l.) fruit
(Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Facultad de Agronomía, Centro Editorial, 2005)
‘Van Dyke’ mango fruits were harvested at physiological maturity and stored in active modified atmosphere conditions using different plastic packages (modified atmosphere packaging, MAP). Two-fruit-samples were placed in ...
Fruit compounds affect male sexual success in the South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae)
(Wiley, 2013-03)
Although exposure to plants has been shown to influence sexual behaviour in a number of phytophagous insect species, a relatively small number of fruit flies have been investigated in that respect. Here, we evaluated the ...
Agronomic performance and fruit nutritional quality of an Andean tomato collection
(International Society for Horticultural Science, 2017)
Cultivated tomato provides important nutrients to the human diet. Several fruit compounds, acting alone or in combination, could be beneficial for human health. A collection of local landraces has been recovered from Andean ...
The role of trait combination in the conspicuousness of fruit display among bird-dispersed plants
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2017-09)
In visually driven seed dispersal mutualisms, natural selection should promote plant strategies that maximize fruit visibility to dispersers. Plants might increase seed dispersal profitability by increasing conspicuousness ...
Novel glutamate dehydrogenase genes show increased transcript and protein abundances in mature tomato fruits
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2012-06)
NAD(P)H-glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH, EC 1.4.1.3) contributes to the control of glutamate homeostasis in all living organisms. In bacteria and animals, GDH is a homohexamer allosterically regulated, whereas in plants ...
Vertebrate dispersal syndromes along the Atlantic forest: broad-scale patterns and macroecological correlates
(Blackwell Publishing, 2008-07-01)
Aim To assess the geographical variation in the relative importance of vertebrates, and more specifically of birds and mammals, as seed dispersal agents in forest communities, and to evaluate the influence of geographical ...

Induced expression of the Fragaria × ananassa Rapid alkalinization factor-33-like gene decreases anthracnose ontogenic resistance of unripe strawberry fruit stages
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-07-29)
Rapid alkalinization factor (RALF) genes encode for ubiquitous small peptides that stimulate apoplastic alkalinization through interaction with malectin-like receptor kinase. RALF peptides may act as negative regulators ...
