Abstract:

Background. Wild vegetables serve an important purpose in the health and diet of many people residing in the rural areas. Various traditional practices associated with their processing and consumption are uncommon and unknown to the present generation, resulting to their underutilization. Methods. Qualitative data were obtained through focus group discussions (FGDs), key informant interviews (KIIs), and participant observation. Using a checklist and questionnaire, a total of 120 individuals from 120 randomly selected households in Kilimanjaro and Morogoro regions were interviewed. Results. Und

Abstract:

Plants have always been a vital source of medicines and other essential products that have been a part of human life ever since time immemorial. Pharmacognosy and its associated aspects have been going through constant evolution and investigation with every generation revealing different and new pharmaceutical properties of plants and their products. The horticulture sector of India has witnessed a great demand of exotic fruits and vegetables in the last decade. These are either imported or artificially introduced in an exotic and non-indigenous habitat. A large number of these exotic plants w

Abstract:

Traditional vegetables in Tanzania have been underutilized by farmers and neglected by research and development programmes. In the framework of the project ‘Promotion of Neglected Indigenous Vegetable Crops for Nutritional Health in Eastern and Southern Africa’ led by the World Vegetable Center (AVRDC) and partners, focus group meetings were conducted in 10–12 villages in each of four districts of north-east Tanzania, which differed in ethnicity as well as in altitude, climate and soil conditions. Farmers named 10–34 different traditional vegetables per village, summing up to an overall of 102

Abstract:

Increasing longevity, along with an aging population in Europe, has caused serious concerns about diet-related chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and certain cancers. As recently noted during the coronavirus pandemic, regular exercise and a robust immune system complemented by adequate consumption of fruit and vegetables are recommended due to their known health benefits. Although the volume of fresh vegetable consumption in the EU is barely growing, demand for diversified, nutritious, and exotic vegetables has been increasing. Therefore, the European market f

Students are often unable to relate the vegetables and fruits consumed as a snack or part of a meal to the plant parts discussed in botany class. Therefore, an exercise was developed for an introductory horticulture course to increase a student's awareness of botany in everyday life.

Abstract:

Folk cuisine is an important part of the cultural heritage and offers great resources for the development of tourism, agriculture, preservation of old varieties of cultivated crops and food traditions. The use of spices also makes cuisines special and distinctive. The article deals with the traditions of the Besermans to use local wild, cultivated and exotic herbs. Local and imported spices Besermans call турөн "herbs", курөт турөн "bitter herbs". The choice of local plants as spices is based on their gustatory and spicy-aromatic qualities, as well as their phytoncidal activity and medicinal p

Abstract:

Abstract Agricultural imports are the primary pathway for the introduction of exotic insect pests. The invasion records of exotic insect pests are also influenced by the lag time before detection and saturation caused by the limited species pool of potential invaders. We compiled an exhaustive list of exotic insect species in mainland Japan and tried to evaluate the connection between the commodity types of agricultural imports and insect types of agricultural pests, in addition to the effects of lag time and saturation. We found that lag time was prominent when all pest types were merged into

This study was done to obtain the Specific Heat Capacities (SHC) of some liquids from some intake items (they are consumed widely in Niger Delta, Nigeria). These items are vegetables (Afang leaf, Pumpkin leaf, Bitter leaf, Scent leaf, Water leaf), fruits (Orange, Cucumber, Pineapple, Watermelon, Lime) and juice (Ribena, Chivita Exotic, Chivita Happy Hour, Chivita Active and Five Alive). Calorimeter was used and Method of mixtures was adopted for this finding. Measured parameters were obtained in the laboratory. Microsoft Excel was used for other analyses and computation of results.

AbstractSince shrimp farming started in Bangladesh in the 1970s, it has spread throughout the coastal region, increasing soil and water salinity levels. The water salinity in 2005 in the coastal districts of Khulna, Bagherat and Satkhira ranged from 0.3 to 20.7, 0.4 to 27.1 and 0.7 to 24.8 dS m−1, respectively, whereby it was highly saline for several months of the year. Water salinity above 2.5 dS m−1 is not suitable for irrigation, and may cause animal health problems. Irrigation with saline water may cause ion toxicity and osmotic stress, reducing plant growth and yield. Salinity has reduce

With their rich nutrient content, fruits and vegetables are of a great importance. Fruits have a very varied chemical composition, generally having as basic element water (up to 90%) and also containing: sugars, proteins, fats, organic acids, various mineral salts, pectic substances and tannins, vitamins and enzymes, in varying amounts. Usually, in the production of jam, one fruit species is used as a raw material, but this study aimed to obtain a food product, rich in vitamins (D, E, K, B12, B6, B2, B1) and minerals, harmoniously blending some of the most beneficial fruits on body health: man

Aubergine allergy is rare outside of India and the far east, and very few cases have been reported. We describe a case of aubergine allergy in a 9-year-old girl of Anglo-Indian descent who also had sensitivity to potato, coincidental oral allergy syndrome, and latex sensitisation with mild oral symptoms on consuming kiwi fruit. Specific IgE to aubergine was negative, but skin testing was positive to both raw and cooked aubergine. With early and increased consumption of exotic vegetables in western countries, more cases of aubergine allergy can be expected and negative blood tests do not exclud

Abstract:

In the past decades, indigenous leafy vegetables (ILVs) have played a significant role in household food security, especially in poor rural households. However, ILVs have been replaced by exotic cash crops in the contemporary world. This study was conducted to assess the consumption of indigenous leafy vegetables and their contribution to household food security of households in Limpopo and Mpumalanga provinces. The study used secondary data collected by the South African Vulnerability Assessment Committee in 2016. A total of 1520 respondents were selected using a multistage sampling method. T

The South American leafminer, Tuta absoluta is an exotic devastative pest on solanaceous vegetables, including tomatoes, which leads to a cent per cent economic loss in India. The molecular markers assist in assessing gene flow, migratory frequencies, and genetic variety, as well as helping to evaluate the genetic makeup and diversification of an exotic species population to indigenous ones. With this, the present study aimed to investigate the genetic divergence of T. absoluta in different districts of Tamil Nadu, India. The study depicted the examination of genetic divergence of T. absoluta

Bearded dragons (Pogona vitticeps) are popular exotic pets. Oxyurid can be transmitted to them through contaminated insect and vegetable feed that may carry infective larvae and worm eggs. Oxyuriasis frequently infects Bearded dragon which then causes diarrhea, weight loss, and other digestive issues. This study investigated the impact of various feeding practices and feed hygiene on the prevalence and severity of Oxyurid infections in Bearded dragon.
