Abstract:

Temperate Region fruit and nut trees, and many other perennial plants, require cool winter temperatures (chilling hours) to ensure leaf and flower bud production in the following season. Temperate Regions are characterized by variable winter and spring temperatures. Failure of meeting sufficient chilling requirement results in deformed fruits, unequal maturation, and other plant deformities, thereby reducing quality and yields. Chilling requirements are expressed as number of accumulated hours within a range of approximately 32º to 45ºF or 0º to 7.2ºC. These requirements are specific for level

Abstract:

The purpose of the experiment was to investigate the effect of fruit flavor compounds on biogas production from fruit wastes. The flavor compounds from different fruits were selected and synthetic medium was used throughout the experiment. The experiment was carried out both in batch and continuous process using thermophilic inoculums obtained from Söbacken waste management plant. The inhibitors were added at three different concentrations 0.05g/L, 0.5g/L and 5g/L respectively and were carried out in triplicates for batch cultivation.The result from batch cultivation showed that hexanal, (E)-2

Revised; Originally Published: 2000<br>7 pp.<br>The mid elevations (3,500 to 6,000 feet) in Arizona can be ideal for growing tree fruit. Site selection can make a pronounced effect on how well fruit will grow and produce. The warmer the site the greater the chance of success. Areas where cold air settles are a poor choice for tree fruit production. Variety selection is very important for good fruit production.February and March are the best months to plant bare root trees, although they can be planted anytime during the dormant season. Try to plant 30 days before bud break. Containerized plant

Abstract:

Oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB) is one of the major solid wastes from palm oil processing. EFB is a lignocellulosic biomass and has the potential to be converted into microbial oil through biochemical routes, where the oils can be further used for biodiesel production. This PhD research aimed to develop and optimise a process for microbial oil production from EFB. The microbial oil production process involves cultivation by oleaginous microorganisms including microalgae, yeasts and fungi on EFB hydrolysates as carbon substrates. The study demonstrated that EFB is a promising low cost non-food

Biological pest control in apple orchards is essential and depends on effective and sustainable agricultural management strategies at local and landscape scales. Local measures such as hedgerows, flowering strips, organic management as well as landscapes with a high diversity of cover types and low land-use intensity are assumed to support biological control specifically and ecosystem services in general. However, the influence of local measures, landscape characteristics and their interactions has rarely been studied in perennial crop systems across large latitudinal gradients. Studying ecosy

Abstract:

Stone fruits are highly perishable due to their sensitivity to ethylene which limit their domestic and international trade. Different formulations of the anti-ethylene compounds 1H-cyclopropabenzene and 1H-cyclopropa[b]naphthalene were investigated to manage ethylene, extend postharvest life and maintain fruit quality. Fumigation and spray solutions containing ethanol prevented the deleterious effects of ethylene and maintained postharvest fruit quality of stone fruits. The development of spray solutions will allow these compounds to be used in future open-field applications.

Little local expertise is available to assist growers in achieving high yields of high quality fruit and previous research has shown that recipes that are followed in Israel, from where ‘Triumph’ was introduced to South Africa, do not necessarily have any beneficial effect in South Africa. ‘Triumph’ orchards in South Africa are often late in reaching full production.

However, in recent times there has been a definite trend towards a fmal dried fruit product in the intermediate moisture range with a moisture content of ca. 36%.

Outbreaks of insect pests pose a serious threat to local economies and global food production, with as much as 15% of global crop production lost to herbivorous insects annually. Outbreaks of transboundary pests and diseases that affect food crops have increased in frequency in conjunction with globalization, international trade and the impacts of climate change. Indeed, increasing global temperatures are predicted to increase the distribution, rate of development, survival and population density of many pest insects. Such changes have important ramifications for host plant exploitation. The Q

Severe water stress reduced the number of flowers produced by Capsicum annuum var. annuum L. Longum plants, but the timing of flower production was less affected. The use of different plant establishment techniques modified flower production. Bare rooted transplants slowed the rate of flower production in comparison with direct seeded plants or those established from cell tray transplants. Bare rooted transplants delayed the onset of water stress. The capabilities of male and female gametophytes were reduced by water stress, with the female more affected, and the interaction of male and female

Thesis (PhD (Chemical Engineering))--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2019<br>The agro-processing industry is currently facing losses due to microbial spoilage of agricultural produce and associated value-added products such as beverages. Decay and undesired fermentation of fruit and beverages by fungal, yeast and bacterial spoilage organisms are among the major contributors of product losses in the food industry. When looking at the different level of food spoilage, it is common to find different spoilage organisms occurring in the same food item; which usually requires food producers

Thesis (MTech (Chemical Engineering))--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2016.<br>Microbial spoilage has been reported in various food products and this has led to increased food, fruit and beverage losses, thereby threatening economic growth, food safety and security. Furthermore, statistics have shown that more than 30% of agricultural produce in developing countries, mostly in Africa, is lost owing to microbial spoilage. Beverages, food and fruits are predominant contributors to the South African export market. In recent years, contamination of these products resulting in spoilage

L'acidification enzymatique de l'huile de palme est l'un des problemes cruciaux rencontres par cette huile tropicale qui occupe la premiere place dans les echanges mondiaux en oleagineux. Dans la premiere partie de ce travail, nous avons isole du fruit de palme plusieurs microorganismes lipolytiques. Notre attention s'est portee sur deux souches tres actives sur les triglycerides, qui se sont averees comme des contaminants majeurs de notre echantillonnage. Il s'agit de mucor hiemalis f. Hiemalis et rhizopus oryzae. Pour chacune des deux souches, nous avons optimise la production de la lipase e

Thesis (MSc Food Sc)--University of Stellenbosch, 2011.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Alicyclobacilli are endospore-forming, thermophilic, acidophilic bacteria (TAB) that survive the pasteurisation process and spoil acidic fruit juices through the production of the taint compound guaiacol. Guaiacol causes an undesirable odour with an unpleasant smoky, medicinal or phenolic-like taste. This thesis reports on the precursors, vanillin and vanillic acid metabolised to guaiacol by Alicyclobacillus spp. in fruit juice, the pathway of guaiacol production and the spoilage potential of contaminated fruit juices

Abstract:

This study reviews four main approaches to the study of food supply for the urban areas of the developing world and finds them to be narrow in their foci and limited by the demands of the disciplines in which they have been developed. In order to overcome these difficulties, this study proposes a synthesis of the approaches for the study of the supply of fruit and vegetables to Dar es Salaam. This approach examines the problem of food supply through the evidence of price and volume data, of interviews and interview surveys, of observations of the marketing process and it integrates interpretat
