The walnut industry submitted its research results for a heart health claim to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration , and the almond industry submitted its as part of a petition filed by the International Tree Nut Council Nutrition Research and Education Foundation to the FDA for a heart health claim for nuts. The FDA approved a …

Four of the orchards contained wild bees such as Bombus vosnesenskii Rad. and Bombus melanopygus Nyl., and the fifth contained the managed native blue orchard bee O. lignaria.In 2009, we categorized 14 almond orchards either as having non-Apis bees or lacking non-Apis bees , based on standard observations of flower visitors . In each orchard, we …
These tandem duplicates may have evolved new functions , possibly involved in the biosynthesis of novel compounds, and/or were selected to improve the metabolic flux of specific bio-synthetic steps that alter the dosage of certain endpoint metabolites. Future studies are needed to further investigate the possible role of tandem duplications in having modified metabolite levels …

Recent outbreaks of X. fastidiosa diseases in Europe and Asia and also in new plant hosts such as olive , blueberry , and pear suggest the great adaptation potential of this pathogen. In a number of plant species, X. fastidiosa is believed to live as a harmless endophyte without inducing disease symptoms . Coexistence in the same xylem …

Non-agricultural land use types include residential, industrial, natural habitat, and other. For the analysis, I join artichokes with vegetable row crops, blueberries and vine crops with caneberries, and cover crops and unknown agricultural land with fallow ground, given the limited number of parcels in each of these categories. These detailed land survey data are coupled …
In 1980, the California Department of Water Resources defined 447 groundwater basins, sub-basins, and other water storage types, and highlighted the Pajaro Valley water basin to be one of 11 basins facing severe overdraft . Due to this classification, the Pajaro Valley Water Management Agency was established in 1984 to combat overdraft and salinity problems by …
Interestingly, a global reduction by approximately 20% in gray matter CBF was not only observed two hours after the intake of a single dose of 184 mg caffeine , but also following the consumption of 2820 mg black tea solids containing 184 mg caffeine that is equivalent to about six cups of tea.This suggests that flavonoids in …
Various antimicrobial compounds are correlated with AFR resistance, including 1-acetoxy-2-hydroxy- 4-oxoheneicosa-12,15-diene and avocadynone acetate in avocado, and dopamine and dopamine-derivatives in banana. In blueberry, resistance was previously hypothesized to come from the interaction of several compounds, including phenolics and organic acids . Supportive of this hypothesis, two non-anthocyanin f lavonoids from blueberry fruit, quercetin 3-Orhamnoside and …
Although Sitka spruce was the second most important species in sapling regeneration in the affected forests, this species played a less important role in the conifer community composition in subsequent stages of stand development. Spruce has been found to have lower regeneration than western hemlock on disturbed sites but higher survival rates; however, western hemlock regeneration …
Methylamine and ethylamine, the degradation products of glycine and alanine, are detected in increasingly high abundances with age in ancient sulfate samples up to ~40Ma. The comparison of these concentrations to their parent amino acids allow for the calculation of glycine and alanine decarboxylation rates and are assumed to be indicative of these rates in …
