'kinnow' (citrus nobilis lour × citrus deliciosa tenora) mandarin juice from fruit of three tree ages (6, 18 and 35 years old) and fruit sizes (large, medium and small) were examined for their bioactive compounds during 7 days under ambient stora ...201625894619
identification of human-to-human transmissibility factors in pb2 proteins of influenza a by large-scale mutual information analysis.the identification of mutations that confer unique properties to a pathogen, such as host range, is of fundamental importance in the fight against disease. this paper describes a novel method for identifying amino acid sites that distinguish specific sets of protein sequences, by comparative analysis of matched alignments. the use of mutual information to identify distinctive residues responsible for functional variants makes this approach highly suitable for analyzing large sets of sequences. t ...200818315849
spatial distribution of phyllocnistis citrella stainton (lepidoptera: gracillariidae) larvae in three scales.the spatial distribution of larvae of phyllocnistis citrella stainton (lepidoptera: gracillariidae), the citrus leaf miner, in leaves, shoots, and tree crowns of montenegrina tangerine (citrus deliciosa tenore) and murcott tangor (citrus sinensis l. osbeck x citrus reticulata blanco) was determined. fortnightly samplings from july/2001 to june/2003, in orchards located in montenegro (29 degrees 68' s and 51 degrees 46' w), rs, brazil, were carried out. at each sampling occasion eighth shoots ran ...200818470399
a stepped-plate bi-frequency source for generating a difference frequency sound with a parametric array.an ultrasonic radiator is developed to generate a difference frequency sound from two frequencies of ultrasound in air with a parametric array. a design method is proposed for an ultrasonic radiator capable of generating highly directive, high-amplitude ultrasonic sound beams at two different frequencies in air based on a modification of the stepped-plate ultrasonic radiator. the stepped-plate ultrasonic radiator was introduced by gallego-juarez et al. [ultrasonics 16, 267-271 (1978)] in their p ...201020550249
diversity among mandarin varieties and natural sub-groups in aroma volatiles compositions.mandarins constitute a large, diverse and important group within the citrus family. here, we analysed the aroma volatiles compositions of 13 mandarin varieties belonging to seven genetically different natural sub-groups that included common mandarin (c. reticulata blanco), clementine (c. clementina hort. ex. tan), satsuma (c. unshiu marcovitch), mediterranean mandarin (c. deliciosa tenore), king mandarin (c. nobilis loureiro), and mandarin hybrids, such as tangor (c. reticulata × c. sinensis) an ...201625824867
