passiflora morifolia/necrosis

The leaf extract of Passiflora alata Dryander (P. alata) has been demonstrated to possess antioxidant activity in vitro. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of P. alata leaf extract pretreatment on carbon tetrachloride-treated rats. Male Wistar rats were randomly allocated into four

Passiflora foetida is a horticultural plant and vital traditional Chinese herbal medicine. In our previous study, the characterization and immuno-enhancing effect of fruits polysaccharide 1 (PFP1), a water-eluted hetero-mannan from wild Passiflora foetida fruits, were investigated.

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the effect of Passiflora edulis peel flour (PEPF) intake on hypothalamic neuropeptides messenger RNA expression, insulin sensitivity, and other metabolic parameters in Sprague-Dawley rats fed a high-fat (HF) diet. METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats were divided in

Here, we present the first near-complete genome of Ugandan Passiflora virus (UPV) sequenced from a symptomatic sample of KH7 passion fruit (Passiflora edulis Sims) variety. UPV had limited amino acid identity with other potyviruses known to cause passion fruit woodiness disease (PWD).

Flour made from Passiflora edulis fruit peel has been used in Brazil to treat diabetes. This study evaluated the effects of pectin from P. edulis on rats with alloxan-induced diabetes, on myeloperoxidase release from human neutrophils, and on carrageenan-induced paw edema. In the experiments on

Surveys were conducted to determine the occurrence of diseases of yellow passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa) in plantations located in the central states of Aragua, Carabobo, Guarico, Miranda, and Yaracuy, Venezuela, from 1991 to 1998. Plants in both commercial plantations and passion

BACKGROUND Tacrolimus (Tac) is a macrolide immunosuppressant drug isolated from Streptomyces tsukubaensis, widely used in organ transplantation. OBJECTIVE This study examined the effect of tacrolimus administered by oral route (p.o.) on inflammation in mouse subcutaneous air pouch triggered by

Passiflora edulis Sims f. edulis, known as purple passion fruit, is a woody, perennial vine that is grown for its attractive two-part flower and its purple, edible fruit (4). In November 2009, passion fruit vines were collected during a regulatory nursery inspection in Santa Barbara County and

We have identified monogenic dominant resistance to azuki bean mosaic poty virus (AzMV), passionfruit woodiness potyvirus-K (PWV-K), zucchini yellow mosaic potyvirus (ZYMV), and a dominant factor that conditioned lethal necrosis to Thailand Passiflora potyvirus (ThPV), in Phaseolus vulgaris 'Black

Macroptilium atropurpureum (siratro plants) is a perennial wild legume plant introduced to Taiwan as a forage crop in 1961 (3) and has become a naturalized weed found all over the island. In 2010, siratro plants with virus-like symptoms of mosaic and leaf deformation were observed on the campus of

During March of 2004 (Alachua County) and again during February of 2006 (Highlands County), specimens of the plant Passiflora incence (passionfruit) with chlorotic symptoms were submitted to the Division of Plant Industry, Gainesville, FL for diagnosis. Cytoplasmic cylindrical inclusions seen in

High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) profiles of tryptic peptides and partial amino acid sequence analysis have been employed to establish the taxonomic status of the Moroccan isolate of cowpea aphid-borne mosaic virus (CABMV). Some previous reports have suggested CABMV to be very closely

Passiflora latent virus (PLV) naturally infects cultivated and wild Passiflora species in Australia, Germany, Israel and the United States (1-3). In March 2004, chlorotic lesions were observed on leaves of three vines of Passiflora tarminiana on one site in Auckland, New Zealand. Chenopodium

This article describes the incidence and etiology of a viral disease of passion fruit in Uganda. Symptoms, including those characteristic of passion fruit woodiness disease (PWD), were observed on 32% of plants in producing areas. Electron microscopic observations of infected tissues revealed

In February 2013, an ornamental waxflower (Hoya calycina Schlecter) with leaves displaying concentric chlorotic and necrotic rings surrounding sunken, necrotic lesions typical of tospovirus infection was observed at a community garden in Honolulu, HI. Symptomatic leaf tissue tested negative for
