  Introduction: Today, different methods are being used to improve the properties of edible films; one of the most effective and commonly used ones is using nanometer-sized fillers and the production of polymer nanocomposites. The objective of the present study is to produce quince seed-based nanocomposite film reinforced with nanocrystalline cellulose and to study the properties of the resulting composite film. Materials and Methods: In the first step, the quince seed mucilage was extracted and then, with different concentrations of nanocrystals cellulose (NCC) (3, 5, and 7%) and 35% (w/w) glycerol as plasticizer the nanocomposite film was produced by molding method. Then the physical, mechanical, barrier, thermal and structural properties of the films were examined. Results: Addition of nanocrystals increased the thickness of resulting films but decreased their moisture content, water solubility and water vapor permeability (WVP) to 7.2%, 29.3% and 5.6% when using 7% nanocrystal cellulose. Increasing of nanocrystals concentration in films resulted in an increase in a* and b* and a decrease in L*. Incorporation of nanocrystals also improved the mechanical properties of quince seed gum-based films including tensile strength and young module, whereas elongation at break was not significant. The glass transition temperature of films also was increased by the addition of nanocrystals which was determined by means of differential scanning calorimetry. FT-IR spectra of samples also approved the interaction between nanocrystals and quince seed gum. Conclusion: The produced films exhibited good physical properties, reduced WVP, and enhanced mechanical properties, which are the main properties required for packaging applications.

But the toxicity of probably side effects caused very concern in the use of these materials in various fields of medicine. The aim of this study was clarify some of these ambiguities and investigation the effect of injection of Quince seed’s extracts on mouse biochemical and hematological parameters.Results:The results showed no significant changes in biochemical factors. Blood parameters includes: white blood cells, red blood cells, platelets, hemoglobin and hematocrit percent don’t show any variation.

  Fire blight of pome friut trees caused by Erwinia amylovora (Burrill) Winslow et al., 1920 has become one of the most important diseases of pome fruits in Iran.Ninty five strains of bacteria were isolated from affected tissuses (leaves,branches, flowers and fruits).  All samples were compared according to the standard physiological, biochemical and pathogenicity tests. Sensitivity of  strains against some antibiotics such as streptomycin, oxytetracyclin and copper were determined.All strains produced  hypersensitive reaction to tobacco and geranium. All strains were the same in phenotypic characteristics.  Moreover, there was not any difference in disease severity  between different  strains. None of  strains tested were resistant to streptomycin, oxytetracyclin and copper. All strians had homogenous phenotypic characteristics and anyibiotics resistance, regardless of their original hosts or geographical areas. There was no chance of finding new species of E.pyrifoliae.

  6 - The seasonal population fluctuations of pomegranate fruit moth, Ectomyelois ceratoniae Zeller and quince moth, Euzophera bigella Zeller in pomegranate orchards

  The pomegranate fruit moth, Ectomyelois ceratoniae Zeller, and quince moth, Euzophera bigella Zeller, are the major frugivorous pest. They cause qualitative and quantitative losses of pomegranate fruit. Sexual pheromone traps may provide a real estimation of adult emergence and flight activity periods, emigration and immigration of such pests. To fulfill such a purpose, an experiment was performed to observe the population fluctuation of E. ceratoniae and E. bigella using synthetic pheromone traps in pomegranate orchards of Tang-e-Siab Koohdasht (Lorestan, Iran), in 2011. Adults of E. ceratoniae and E. bigella appeared in late April and May, respectively, and their flights continued until mid November. These pests populations showed four and three flight peaks during the growth season, respectively. The quince moth's population was higher than on pomegranate fruit moth's population, while the peak of the moth flight was between late July to early August. So in the pomegranate orchards of Lorestan region, in addition to pomegranate fruit moth, quince moth is one of the important fruit pests. The quince moth appears a month later in comparison to pomegranate fruit moth and both are active until the end of the season. Manuscript profile

  Based on the recent results on the efficacy of Bion elicitor in increasing quince (Cydonia oblanga) resistance to fire blight caused by Erwinia amylovora bacterium, the biochemical basis of this induced defense was studied for the first time. The experiment was conducted on quince cv. Isfahan seedlings grafted on quince rootstocks under orchard condition.  In early spring, three-years-old young plants were sprayed twice with Bion (400 mg/l) in 4-days intervals and four days after the last spray, young leaves were collected for enzymes extraction and quantification. Also, phytotoxic effects of Bion were studied throughout the time course of the study in orchard. Based on the results, Bion did not induce any phytotoxicity effects on quince. Bion treatment increased polyphenol oxidase and peroxidase activities but did not affect on catalase activity. It is concluded that elevation of oxidative enzymes are a part of biochemical mechanism of Bion-mediated defense in quince but catalase enzyme activity, which dismutase reactive oxygen species, does not change.

  The plant is quince known as a medicinal plant. In vitro and induction of callus from different species of this plant are important and sensitive stages. In the present study, the ability of callusing and direct regeneration in callus medium in explants and various growth regulators were evaluated. From different parts of leaf, stems, meristem, leaf tail and callus were prepared Callus buds on the stem quince. For making callus formation used the MS medium containing three levels of 1, 2 and 4 mg / L of 2,4-D hormone and 0.1, 0.2 and 1 mg / L BAP hormone, each of growth regulators was studied as a factorial experiment in a completely randomized design with three replications on MS medium. The results of the comparison showed that the highest amount of calluses in the first culture medium belonged to the cultivar of callus buds (on woody stem) at 4 mg / L 2,4-D concentration was 19.5 mm and at 1 mg / L BAP concentration was 27.5 mm in the callus bud (on a wooden stem) Also, the highest amount of calluses in the second order was attributed to the meristem extract at 0.1 mg / L BAP concentration was 32 mm and at 1 mg / L 2,4-D concentration was 23mm belonging to the callus bud (on the Wooden stem). Direct regeneration was observed in meristem, stem and leaf. Manuscript profile
