Res. Sir/ Madam,
I am working as Scientist (Horticulture) and my research focus is improvement of tropical and semi arid fruits. I am also interested in working out role of nutrients in fruit based cropping systems.
Looking for collaborators from the field of Genetics and Plant Breeding, Horticulture, Agricultural Statistics, Soil Science and Agronomy.
Currently working on Genetic analysis for fruit traits in Jamun (Indian Blackberry).
It is generally seen light coloured varieties has more storage life.what's relation with colour and size with storage life.
Dear colleagues,
now we are working on some research focused on earwigs and we would like to know opinion from the researchers, fruit growers etc. if the earwigs are for you the beneficial organism or the pest of some fruit crops. Please could you fill in the short questionnaire? Thank you so much for the cooperation and your time.
Please send me the questionnaire back to email: michal.skalsky@vsuo.cz
All the best,

What is the cause of chlorosis and brown spots of avocados leaves, while plants do not have a problem with light and humidity?

Can anybody suggest a reliable method to estimate the age of ancient olive trees i.e. >500 or even 1500 years old? Radio-chronology is out of question due to the deterioration of the most aged tissues.
I need your help for my dissertation.
If the present date palm yields are compared to 1961, one can easily reach at the conclusion that these either remained stagnating during last five decades or decrease compared to benchmark level, except a few countries like Egypt and Iran. The increase in production was mainly due to increase in harvested area and not increase in yields, except a few countries. The major area (Arab countries) where about 75 % of dates production is obtained is showing this situation (except Egypt). Surprisingly, trends in USA (though not a major date palm growing country) are also the same. Yield data for last five decades can be taken as a proof (Please refer to my paper "Global dilemma of stagnating/decreasing date palm yields during the last five decades" uploaded on ResearchGate website for ready reference). How we can improve this situation?
Date palm yields since 1961
Stagnating or decreasing trends in yield
Major causes?
How all the stake holders can improve the situation?
Can an increase in drying temperature (> 70 degrees) result in a decrease in colour parameters (LAB) of fruits, while total carotenoid and lycopene content increases? if yes, what is the scientific explanation for this occurrence?
I am aware that some efforts with somatic embryogenesis resulted in too many non fruit bearing trees, but I am hoping someone has better results to emulate

It is easy to understand the embryony at fruit bearing stage of citrus plant but it is very important to know at a young stage.

Manganese is a micronutrient that plays a important role in the nitrate reductase activity and formation of chlorophyll in tree leaf
For the last three years, my research has dealt with strawberries in Southern Rajasthan (India). Due to fungal diseases, however, plant survival is less than 25%. So, I regularly drenched the plants with bavistin, SAAF and DM 45 on a weekly interval, but plant survival did not improve. Can anyone provide any suggestions on how to control plant growth and survival?
