Death of female flower microsporocytes progresses independently of meiosis-like process and can be accelerated by specific transcripts in Asparagus officinalis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Asparagus officinalis (garden asparagus) is a dioecious perennial crop, and the dioecy (i.e., sex) of A. officinalis can affect its productivity. In A. officinalis, flower anthers in female plants fail to accumulate callose around microsporocytes, fail to complete meiosis, and degenerate due to cell

Sucrose delays senescence and preserves functional compounds in Asparagus officinalis L.

Only registered users can translate articles

The high metabolic rate of harvested asparagus spears (Asparagus officinalis L.) causes rapid deterioration. To extend shelf life, we investigated the effect of sucrose treatment on asparagus during storage. Asparagus spears were treated with 3%, 5%, and 10% sucrose and stored at 2 °C for 20 h.

Controlled atmospheres and sugar can delay malate synthase gene expression during asparagus senescence

Only registered users can translate articles

A cDNA clone encoding malate synthase (MS; EC 4.1.3.2) was isolated from a 48-h postharvest asparagus (Asparagus officinalis L.) spear cDNA library using a MS clone from Brassica napus. The asparagus MS (AoMS1) cDNA hybridized to a 1.9-kb transcript that increased in abundance preferentially in

Identification and characterization of an mRNA encoding a proline-rich protein that rapidly declines in abundance in the tips of harvested asparagus spears.

Only registered users can translate articles

We previously isolated a cDNA clone, pTIP13, whose homologous mRNA rapidly declined in abundance in the tips of harvested asparagus (Asparagus officinalis L.) spears [King and Davies (1992) Plant Physiol. 100: 1661]. In order to identify factors regulating the postharvest deterioration of asparagus,

Asparagus Spears as a Model to Study Heteroxylan Biosynthesis during Secondary Wall Development.

Only registered users can translate articles

Garden asparagus (Asparagus officinalis L.) is a commercially important crop species utilized for its excellent source of vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber. However, after harvest the tissue hardens and its quality rapidly deteriorates because spear cell walls become rigidified due to

Effect of salicylic acid treatment on postharvest quality, antioxidant activities, and free polyamines of asparagus.

Only registered users can translate articles

The effects of salicylic acid (SA) on the quality and antioxidant activity of asparagus stored at 18 ± 2 °C were investigated by analyzing the color, chlorophyll, shear force, and the activity of antioxidant compounds such as ascorbic acid, phenolics, flavonoids, 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH)

Evolution of quality characteristics of minimally processed asparagus during storage in different lighting conditions.

Only registered users can translate articles

The effect of different types of lighting (white, green, red, and blue light) on minimally processed asparagus during storage at 4 degrees C was studied. The gas concentrations in the packages, pH, mesophilic counts, and weight loss were also determined. Lighting caused an increase in physiological

Effect of enzymatic macerate treatment on rutin content, antioxidant activity, yield, and physical properties of asparagus juice.

Only registered users can translate articles

Asparagus is a vegetable with high antioxidant activity. In this research, asparagus juice was produced from fresh asparagus macerate treated with a carbohydrases mixture (Viscozyme) at 37 degrees C for up to 8 h. Rutin content, antioxidant activity, yield, soluble solid content, and color of the

Effect of chitosan coatings on postharvest green asparagus quality.

Only registered users can translate articles

Fresh postharvest green asparagus rapidly deteriorate due to its high respiration rate. The main benefits of edible active coatings are their edible characteristics, biodegradability and increase in food safety. In this study, the quality of the edible coatings based on 0.50%, 0.25% high-molecular

Plant sex chromosomes: molecular structure and function.

Only registered users can translate articles

Recent molecular and genomic studies carried out in a number of model dioecious plant species, including Asparagus officinalis, Carica papaya, Silene latifolia, Rumex acetosa and Marchantia polymorpha, have shed light on the molecular structure of both homomorphic and heteromorphic sex chromosomes,
