the control of polyphenol oxidase activity in fruits and vegetables. a study of the interactions between the chemical compounds used and heat treatment.	objective of this research was to find alternative methods for the control of polyphenol oxidase (ppo) activity in fruits and vegetables with the purpose of reducing or eliminating the use of so2 for this purpose. interactions between the use of ascorbic acid, citric acid, edta, sodium metabisulphite and heat treatment (70 degrees c for 2 min) in the control of ppo activity were studied in avocado (var. fortuna), banana (var. nanica), apple (var. ana, fuji, gala & golden), pear (var. d'agua), pe ...	1995	7659702
nucleotide-dependent angular change in kinesin motor domain bound to tubulin.	kinesin is a 'motor' molecule, consisting of two head domains, an alpha-helical coiled coil rod, and a tail part that binds to its cargo. when expressed in a bacterial system, the head domain is functional, and can bind to microtubules with the stoichiometry of one head per tubulin dimer. kinesin moves along microtubules by means of a cyclic process of nucleotide binding, hydrolysis and product release. we have used negative-stain electron microscopy and image analysis to study the structures of ...	1995	7617042
genetic analysis of nonpathogenic agrobacterium tumefaciens mutants arising in crown gall tumors.	little is known about the effect of the host on the genetic stability of bacterial plant pathogens. crown gall, a plant disease caused by agrobacterium tumefaciens, may represent a useful model to study this effect. indeed, our previous observations on the natural occurrence and origin of nonpathogenic agrobacteria suggest that the host plant might induce loss of pathogenicity in populations of a. tumefaciens. here we report that five different a. tumefaciens strains initially isolated from appl ...	1995	7601840
pear blister canker viroid: sequence variability and causal role in pear blister canker disease.	the sequences of several cdna clones of pear blister canker viroid (pbcvd) p1914t and p47a isolates have been determined. seven out of eight p1914t clones analysed have a constant sequence which differs at six positions from that of the p2098t isolate reported previously. the remaining p1914t clone (8) has a single nucleotide substitution. the same six changes have been also observed in most of the ten p47a clones sequenced. however, some p47a clones show additional variability in positions on b ...	1995	7595369
investigation of sheep-associated malignant catarrhal fever virus infection in ruminants by pcr and competitive inhibition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.	development of control measures for the gammaherpesviral disease of cattle known as sheep-associated malignant catarrhal fever (sa-mcf) has been hampered by a lack of accurate diagnostic tests either for the causative virus or for antibody against that virus. a recently developed competitive-inhibition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ci-elisa) for the detection of antibody to malignant catarrhal fever (mcf) virus (mcfv) in ruminants based on a monoclonal antibody to a widely conserved epitope ...	1995	7559946
