Seven red raspberry (Rubus Ideaus L.) samples from Oregon, Washington, British Columbia and New Zealand were processed into juice. These, along with three juice samples supplied from West Germany were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography, (HPLC), for nonvolatile acid, sugar, anthocyanin and anthocyanidin composition. In
order to quantitate the...
The retention of pigments in processed raspberries is a function of the process method and conditions of subsequent storage. The presence of sucrose and the nature of the headspace gas also influences the retention of the pigment. The effect of some of the above variables on the pigments was investigated....
A cultivar comparison study was conducted to identify similarities
and differences in cane characteristics between 2 primocane fruiting
red raspberry cultivars and to determine if the differences and
similarities can help determine cultural practices that may improve
productivity. The comparison of the cultivars 'Amity1 and 'August
Red' showed a difference...
In recent years, there has been renewed interest in black raspberry (Rubus occidentalis L.) breeding. This has been spurred by an increase in black raspberry consumption due to studies that have shown them to be particularly high in anthocyanin content indicating high levels of antioxidants. Present cultivars are ill adapted...
Raspberry bushy dwarf virus (RBDV) is the sole member of the idaeovirus genus of plant viruses. It is a pollen-borne virus that economically impacts both red and black raspberries worldwide. Three strains of the bipartite RBDV have been reported. The common strain found in North America, South America, Australia, New...
'Amity' red raspberries, 'Chester' blackberries and 'Earliblue' blueberries were subjected to different cooling treatments at 0°C and placed in storage at 0°C. Fruits were cooled 2-4 times faster with forced-air cooling than with room cooling. Cooling treatments had no effect on decay, soluble solids content or citric and malic acid...
The effects of fenamiphos on soil and root populations of Pratylenchus penetrans were evaluated in four red raspberry cv. Willamette fields in Northwestern Oregon. Field 1 was a silty clay loam with 53% organic matter (OM). Field 2 and 3 were silty loam soils with 3.25 and 2.55% OM, respectively...
Strawberries {Fragaria ananasa) and raspberries {Rubus ideaus) are good sources ofmany important nutrients, and have great potential to improve human health. However, they are highly perishable and have a very short shelf-life mainly due to the attack of fungi and high respiration rate. Edible coatings, especially chitosan-based coatings have been...
