Amygdalus Communis

The Almond (Amygdalus communis) is one of the most important and oldest commercial nut crops, belonging to the Rosaceae family. Almond has been used as base material in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, hygienically and food industry. Propagation by tissue culture technique is the most important one in woody plants. In the current research, in vitro optimization of tissue culture and mass production of almond was investigated. In this idea, explants of actively growing shoots were collected and sterilized, then transferred to MS medium with different concentrations and combinations of plant growth regulators. The experiment was done in completely randomized blocks design, with 7 treatment and 30 replications. After 4 weeks, calli induction, proliferation, shoot length and number of shoot per explants were measured. Results showed that the best medium for shoot initiation and proliferation was MS + 0.5 mg/l IAA (Indol-3-Acetic Acid) + 1 mg/l BA (Benzyl Adenine). Autumn was the best season for collecting explants. The shoots were transferred to root induction medium with different concentrations of plant growth regulators. The best root induction medium was MS + 0.5 mg/l IBA (Indol Butyric Acid).

SUMMARYAlmond trees (Amygdalus communis L. cvs Garrigues and Ramillete) were grown in the field under non-irrigated conditions in Murcia, Spain. Seasonal variations in leaf water potential components were studied in 1989. Predawn leaf water potential showed high values in both cultivars, due to the absence of soil water stress. Pressure-volume curve analysis indicated that the leaf osmotic potential at full saturation (Ψo(sat)) for cv. Garrigues remained fairly constant throughout the season. Bulk modulus of elasticity (E) showed, in both cultivars, a tendency to decrease as the season progressed. E values were higher in Ramillete than in Garrigues. The relative water content at the turgor loss point (RWCtlp) seemed to be controlled by E values. The larger relative apoplastic water content (RWCa found in Ramillete might have allowed it to retain more water at low leaf water potentials than Garrigues. These facts would support the suggestion that Ramillete is a more drought-resistant cultivar than Garrigues.

ABSTRACT Almonds are known to have a number of nutritional benefits, including cholesterol-lowering effects and protection against diabetes. They are also a good source of minerals and vitamin E, associated with promoting health and reducing the risk for chronic disease. For this study we investigated the potential prebiotic effect of almond seeds in vitro by using mixed fecal bacterial cultures. Two almond products, finely ground almonds (FG) and defatted finely ground almonds (DG), were subjected to a combined model of the gastrointestinal tract which included in vitro gastric and duodenal digestion, and the resulting fractions were subsequently used as substrates for the colonic model to assess their influence on the composition and metabolic activity of gut bacteria populations. FG significantly increased the populations of bifidobacteria and Eubacterium rectale, resulting in a higher prebiotic index (4.43) than was found for the commercial prebiotic fructooligosaccharides (4.08) at 24 h of incubation. No significant differences in the proportions of gut bacteria groups were detected in response to DG. The increase in the numbers of Eubacterium rectale during fermentation of FG correlated with increased butyrate production. In conclusion, we have shown that the addition of FG altered the composition of gut bacteria by stimulating the growth of bifidobacteria and Eubacterium rectale.
