Abstract: Our study consists of a careful literature review carried out with the aim of better understanding the models developed in the field of biocontrol of postharvest fungal rot in apples (PHFRA) over the past two decades. It aims, more specifically, to shed light on the progress made by examining the products developed, their nature, their... More
Abstract:
Different fungi alter apples in the post-harvest period, causing considerable economic losses and risks to consumer health due to the mycotoxins that some of these fungi produce. The control of these fungal alterations in apples is mainly dependent on the use of chemical fungicides, the effectiveness of which has been well proven. However, this use is... More
Abstract:
African Star Apple (Chrysophyllum albidum) classified as a forest food tree with economic potentials requires domestication attention for improved productivity. A study conducted in Abeokuta, Nigeria in 2017 using one year old C. albidum seedlings determined the plant’s growth responses when cultivated using different growth medium and soil amendment methods. The 3 x 9 factorial experiment... More
Abstract: Earth Apple (Helianthus tuberosus) phenolic compounds were extracted using two methods ethanol extraction (98 percent ethanol for 24 hours at room temperature) and water extraction (distilled water for 24 hours at room temperature). To measure the sum of phenols in the extract, the Folin-Ciocateu method was used. The alcohol extract gave a higher phenol content... More
