Feature Papers in Horticulturae
Author: Douglas D. Archbold
Publisher:
ISBN: 9783036519937
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
Several of the 17 papers in this volume represent diverse strategies for improving sustainability in crop production systems. The maintenance of soil quality and the reclamation of marginal soils, improving tolerance to saline irrigation water, biodegradable alternatives to black plastic mulch, use of natural plant extracts against bacterial disease, and development of cultivars resistant to herbivorous arthropods address urgent priorities in sustainable systems. Two papers examine the driving forces and effects of adopting innovative agricultural technologies in food value chains in underdeveloped regions of the world, and identification of new Asian vegetable crop species for European environments and markets. Three papers reported on managing fruit set and ripening in important fruit crop species like orange, apple, and plum. Postharvest techniques to reduce disease and maintain fruit nutraceutical content were reported in separate papers. Classification techniques, conservation and utilization of unique plant species, and in vitro propagation techniques of species with potential horticultural value were described in four papers.

Essential Oils in Food Preservation, Flavor and Safety
Author: Victor R Preedy
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 012416644X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 932
Book Description
Essential Oils in Food Preservation, Flavor and Safety discusses the major advances in the understanding of the Essential Oils and their application, providing a resource that takes into account the fact that there is little attention paid to the scientific basis or toxicity of these oils. This book provides an authoritative synopsis of many of the complex features of the essential oils as applied to food science, ranging from production and harvesting, to the anti-spoilage properties of individual components. It embraces a holistic approach to the topic, and is divided into two distinct parts, the general aspects and named essential oils. With more than 100 chapters in parts two and three, users will find valuable sections on botanical aspects, usage and applications, and a section on applications in food science that emphasizes the fact that essential oils are frequently used to impart flavor and aroma. However, more recently, their use as anti-spoilage agents has been extensively researched. - Explains how essential oils can be used to improve safety, flavor, and function - Embraces a holistic approach to the topic, and is divided into two distinct parts, the general aspects and named essential oils - Provides exceptional range of information, from general use insights to specific use and application information, along with geographically specific information - Examines traditional and evidence-based uses - Includes methods and examples of investigation and application
