| gene flow in cherry orchards. | a survey of australian cherry orchards identified the cherry cultivars sunburst, summit, merchant, sam, sylvia, tieton, kordia, regina, empress, nordwunder and ulster as having low fruit-set associated with poor pollination. unique orchard sites across australia where low fruit-set was not a problem for these cultivars were located, and pollen gene-flow-analysis conducted using 6-pgd, got, g6pd, gpi, idh, fdp and skdh isozyme markers. pollenisers for the above-mentioned cultivars were determined ... | 2004 | 14504747 |
| kordia algicida gen. nov., sp. nov., an algicidal bacterium isolated from red tide. | a bacterium (named ot-1(t)) that showed algicidal activity was isolated from sea water of masan bay, korea, during an outbreak of red tide. phylogenetic analysis based on 16s rdna sequences showed that the isolate formed a distinct phyletic lineage within the family flavobacteriaceae of the cytophaga-flavobacterium-bacteroides group. no species with a validly published name showed >/=93 % 16s rrna gene sequence similarity to strain ot-1(t). the isolate had major amounts of iso-branched and 3-hyd ... | 2004 | 15143006 |
| in vitro plant regeneration from leaves and internode sections of sweet cherry cultivars (prunus avium l.). | regeneration of adventitious shoots from leaves and, for the first time, from internode sections were compared and optimized for five economically important sweet cherry cultivars, i.e. "schneiders", "sweetheart", "starking hardy giant", "kordia" and "regina" (prunus avium l.). the influence of basal media, carbon source, combination and dosage of phytohormones, ethylene inhibitor such as silver thiosulfate and a 16 h:8 h light:dark photoperiod versus complete darkness were evaluated. both, dkw/ ... | 2005 | 15948004 |
| fulvibacter tottoriensis gen. nov., sp. nov., a member of the family flavobacteriaceae isolated from marine sediment. | a novel bacterium, mtt-39(t), was isolated from a sample of marine sediment collected at tottori on the coast of the sea of japan. cells were gram-negative, rod-shaped and non-motile. the bacterium formed yellowish brown colonies on marine agar 2216. although the 16s rrna gene sequence of strain mtt-39(t) classified this strain as a member of the family flavobacteriaceae, the maximum sequence similarity obtained was only 91.5 % (with kordia algicida ot-1(t)). in the maximum-likelihood tree based ... | 2008 | 18599714 |
| anthocyanin content, lipid peroxidation and cyclooxygenase enzyme inhibitory activities of sweet and sour cherries. | cherries contain bioactive anthocyanins that are reported to possess antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antidiabetic and antiobese properties. the present study revealed that red sweet cherries contained cyanidin-3-o-rutinoside as major anthocyanin (>95%). the sweet cherry cultivar "kordia" (aka "attika") showed the highest cyanidin-3-o-rutinoside content, 185 mg/100 g fresh weight. the red sweet cherries "regina" and "skeena" were similar to "kordia", yielding cyanidin-3-o-rutinoside a ... | 2009 | 19199585 |
| kordia periserrulae sp. nov., isolated from a marine polychaete periserrula leucophryna, and emended description of the genus kordia. | a gram-negative, chemoheterotrophic, yellow-pigmented, non-motile, flexirubin-negative, facultatively anaerobic bacterium, designated strain imcc1412(t), was isolated from a marine polychaete periserrula leucophryna inhabiting a tidal flat of the yellow sea, korea. phylogenetic analysis based on 16s rrna gene sequences indicated that strain imcc1412(t) was most closely related to kordia algicida, with a sequence similarity of 96.7 %, but only distantly related to other species in the family flav ... | 2011 | 20495038 |
| genome sequence of the algicidal bacterium kordia algicida ot-1. | kordia algicida ot-1 is an algicidal bacterium against the bloom-forming microalgae. the genome sequence of k. algicida revealed a number of interesting features, including degradation of macromolecules, the biosynthesis of carotenoid pigment and secondary metabolites, and the capacity for gliding motility, which might facilitate the understanding of algicidal mechanisms. | 2011 | 21622754 |
| interactions of the algicidal bacterium kordia algicida with diatoms: regulated protease excretion for specific algal lysis. | interactions of planktonic bacteria with primary producers such as diatoms have great impact on plankton population dynamics. several studies described the detrimental effect of certain bacteria on diatoms but the biochemical nature and the regulation mechanism involved in the production of the active compounds remained often elusive. here, we investigated the interactions of the algicidal bacterium kordia algicida with the marine diatoms skeletonema costatum, thalassiosira weissflogii, phaeodac ... | 2011 | 21695044 |
