“…This is consistent with reports that high concentrations and prolonged exposure times result in lethal or redoubling effects [75]. Also among the Cucurbitaceae, In vitro technique has been well demonstrated and the regeneration of plants has been reported from excised plant parts such as hypocotyls [34], cotyledons [34-36,76-81], shoot tips [82,83], nodal segments [84][85][86], leaf [80,[87][88][89], embryonal axis [90] and anthers [91].…”

Zehneria capillacea (Schumach.) C. Jeffrey is a wild diploid (2n = 2x = 22) andromonoecious climber that is eaten as vegetable in Nigeria. In vitro polyploidy induction was conducted using oryzalin as a microtubule inhibitor at various concentrations (10, 20 and 30 µM) and two time durations (24 and 48hrs). This research was conducted to develop a protocol for induction of polyploids through in vitro technique in order to create variability and broaden the genetic base of this species. Shoot length was significantly affected by oryzalin concentration at 24 and 48 hours treatment duration. The nodal segments immersed in 10, 20 and 30 µM oryzalin for 24 hrs had shoot lengths of 7.56 ± 0.06 cm, 7.24 ± 0.06 cm and 7.31 ± 0.07 cm respectively which were statistically similar while the shoot length of those treated for 48 hrs significantly decreased with increase in oryzalin concentration ranging from 7.02 ± 0.07 cm for 10 µM to 2.71 ± 0.11 cm for 30 µM. 10 µM oryzalin for 24 hrs and 48 hrs induced 100% 2x+4x and 2x+4x+8x cytochimera respectively. Application of 20 µM for 24 hrs induced 75% 2x+4x and 25% solid tetraploids while 20

“…Hami melon (also known as cantaloupe) is a type of muskmelon, well known for its aesthetic appearance and sweet flavor. This melon is considered the “king of melons” [2]. Due to its richness in nutrients and good taste, Hami melon is a popular fruit item used to make fresh-cut fruits.…”

Fresh-cut fruits and vegetables are the main sources of foodborne illness outbreaks with implicated pathogens such as Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella, and Listeria monocytogenes. This study aimed at investigating the influence of two key parameters (concentration of curcumin and illumination time) on the effects of curcumin-based photodynamic sterilization on the preservation of fresh-cut Hami melons. The results indicated that illumination with 50 μmol/L curcumin for 60 min using a blue LED lamp reduced the total aerobic microorganism count by ~1.8 log CFU/g in fresh-cut Hami melons. Besides this, the effects of photodynamic sterilization on the soluble solids content, color, water content, firmness, and sensory indices of the fresh-cut Hami melons were also evaluated. Compared to the control group, photodynamic sterilization can effectively delay the browning rate and maintain the luminosity, firmness, water content, and soluble solids content of fresh-cut Hami melon. The sensory quality was indeed preserved well after 9 days of storage in a fridge. These results showed that photodynamic sterilization is an effective and promising technology to prolong the shelf life of fresh-cut Hami melons.
