Carrot motley dwarf (CMD) affects carrot and other apiaceous plants by causing leaf yellowing or reddening as well as plant stunting and leads often to serious economic losses wherever these crops are grown (2). CMD has been reported from Australia, Europe, Japan, Israel, and North America and is

Lutein is a xanthophyll abundant in nature and most commonly present in the human diet through consumption of leafy green vegetables. With zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin, lutein is a component of the macular pigment of the retina, where it protects against photooxidation and age-related macular

Goldenberry juice was added in ratios of 0% (T1), 20% (T2), 30% (T3), 40% (T4) and 50% (T5) to carrot juice. Then the blends were mixed with sucrose solution (1:1), and pasteurized at 98 °C for 2 min. The produced carrot-goldenberry nectars were analyzed for physicochemical, sensory and microbial

Chlorine dioxide (ClO(2)) gas is a strong oxidizing and sanitizing agent that has a broad and high biocidal effectiveness and big penetration ability; its efficacy to prolong the shelf-life of a minimally processed (MP) vegetable, grated carrots (Daucus carota L.), was tested in this study. Carrots

Phytoplasma strains that belong to group 16SrI (aster yellows phytoplasma group), subgroup A (I-A, North American tomato big bud phytoplasma subgroup) were discovered in diverse plant species in Lithuania. Plants in which the strains were found exhibited symptoms characteristic of infections by

During the freezing process, ice crystal formation leads to the deterioration in physicochemical properties and networks of gluten proteins. The cryoprotective effects of recombinant carrot ( Daucus carota) antifreeze protein (rCaAFP), type II antifreeze protein from Epinephelus coioides (rFiAFP),

A full-length cDNA clone encoding aspartate aminotransferase (AAT) has been identified from a carrot root cDNA library. Degenerate oligo primers were synthesized from the known amino acid sequence of AAT form I from carrot (Daucus carota L. cv Danvers). These primers were utilized in a polymerase

Using PCR with degenerate oligonucleotides, we amplified two conserved regions of the plasma membrane ATPase A (alpha)- and B (beta)-subunit-encoding genes from Haloferax volcanii, a halophilic archaeon. The amplified fragments were cloned and sequenced, and then used as homologous probes to clone

In this paper, we describe an effective method for constructing a micro-library enriched with chromosomal DNA replication origins. Carrot (Daucus carota L.) somatic embryos at early globular stage were incubated for 15 min in the presence of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) to pulse label newly synthesized
