This document provides information on fruits, including their definition, parts, and classification. It defines a fruit as a ripened ovary formed after fertilization. Fruits are classified as true or false, and simple, aggregate, or multiple. Simple fruits develop from a single flower and can be fleshy like berries, drupes, and pomes, or dry like legumes, follicles, and nuts. Aggregate fruits are collections of simple fruitlets like rose hips. Multiple fruits develop from an inflorescence, examples being pineapple and jackfruit. The document outlines the key parts and layers of fruits, as well as their functions and economic importance.
Temperate fruit plants are those that grow in climates with distinct winter cold periods. They require chilling temperatures to break dormancy and initiate growth. Examples include apple, pear, stone fruits, berries, nuts, and cherries. These plants are classified based on factors like plant structure, fruit morphology, bearing habit, and growth pattern. Fruits are categorized as tree fruits, small fruits, or nuts. Classification helps identify relationships and suggest cultural requirements. Common temperate fruit types include pomes like apple; drupes like peach; and dry fruits like nuts.

the apple.
• Apple trees are deciduous, meaning that
they loose their leaves each fall and grow
new leaves each spring
• It is cultivated worldwide as a fruit tree, and
is the most widely grown species in the
genus Malus.
• The tree originated in Central A
This document provides a classification of different types of fruits. It discusses that fruits can be classified as true fruits or accessory fruits depending on their composition. True fruits develop solely from the ovary, while accessory fruits also incorporate other flower parts. Fruits are also classified by their arrangement as simple, aggregate, or multiple. Simple fruits derive from a single flower ovary, aggregate fruits from many separate carpels, and multiple fruits from fused ovaries of many flowers. Within these categories, fruits are further divided into fleshy or dry types based on ripened characteristics, and each type has specific examples provided.
Apple (Malus pumila) is an important temperate fruit. Apples are mostly consumed fresh but a small part of the production is processed in to juices, jellies, canned slices and other items.
In India, Apple is primarily cultivated in Jammu & Kashmir; Himachal Pradesh; hills of Uttar Pradesh and Uttaranchal. It is also cultivated to a small extent in Arunachal Pradesh; Nagaland; Punjab and Sikkim.
Climate
The apple is a temperate fruit crop. However, in India the apple growing areas do not fall in temperate zone but the prevailing temperate climate of the region is due to the Himalayan ranges and high altitudes. The average summer temperature should be around 21-24oC during active growth period. Apple succeeds best in regions where the trees experience uninterrupted rest in winter and abundant sunshine for good colour development. It can be grown at an altitude of 1500- 2700 m above the sea level. Well-distributed rainfall of 1000-1250 mm throughout the growing season is most favourable for optimum growth and fruitfulness of apple trees.
Varieties
Jammu and Kashmir : Golden Delicious (Late Season), Lal Ambri, Mollies Delicious, Starkrimson, Red June, Irish Peach, Benoni and Tydeman’s Early
Himachal Pradesh : Golden Delicious (Late Season), Red Delicious (Mid season), McIntosh
Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh : McIntosh, Chaubattia Anupam
Tamil Nadu : Irish Peach and Zouches Pipin (Early); KKL 1, Carrington and Winterstein (Mid -season); Rome Beauty and Parlin’s Beauty (late)
Soil
Apples grow best on a well-drained, loam soils having a depth of 45 cm and a pH range of pH 5.5-6.5. The soil should be free from hard substrata and water-logged conditions. Soils with heavy clay or compact subsoil are to be avoided.
Propagation
Grafting : Apples are propagated by several methods viz.; whip, tongue, cleft and roots grafting. Tongue and cleft grafting at 10-15 cm above the collar during February-March gives the best results. Usually grafting is done at the end of winter.
Budding : Apples are mostly propagated by shield budding, which gives a high percentage of success. In shield budding a single bud along with a shield piece of stem is cut along with the scion and inserted beneath the rind of the rootstock through a 'T' shaped incision during active growth period. Budding is done when the buds are fully formed during summer. The optimum time of budding is September in Kashmir Valley, Kumaon hills of Uttaranchal, high hills of Himachal Pradesh and June in mid hills of Himachal Pradesh.
Rootstocks : Most of the apple plants are grafted or budded on seedling of wild crab apple. The seedling rootstocks obtained from the seeds of diploid cultivars like Golden Delicious, Yellow Newton, Wealthy, Macintosh and Granny Smith also can be used. High density planting is done using dwarfing rootstocks (M9, M4, M7 and M106).

The plant defenses against ROS include antioxidant enzymes like superoxide dismutase and non-enzymatic compounds. Primary metabolites like proline and secondary metabolites play important roles in stress tolerance. The accumulation of stress proteins, amino acids and compatible solutes help plants adapt to stressful conditions.
IMPORTANT VARIETIES AND POST HARVEST QUALITY REQUIREMENTS OF GYPSOPHILA, CALL...Dr. M. Kumaresan Hort.
This document discusses the post-harvest quality requirements for three flowering plants: gypsophila, calla lily, and goldenrod. It provides information on important varieties for each plant and their characteristics. For gypsophila, it describes pre-treatments like STS that extend vase life and recommends storage at 0-1°C and 90% humidity. For calla lilies, it provides grading guidelines and advises harvesting when the spathe has opened. For goldenrod, it notes varieties that remain upright and lists post-harvest treatments like sucrose that extend vase life to 13 days.
1. Plants are exposed to various stresses from both human activities and natural causes that can increase the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in plant tissues.
2. ROS are generated during normal plant metabolic processes and photosynthesis, but stress situations increase their toxic production.
3. Plants have developed complex antioxidant defense systems using enzymatic and non-enzymatic components like ascorbate, glutathione, phenolics and antioxidant enzymes to scavenge ROS and protect against oxidative damage.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

Classification of tropical, Subtropical and Temperate Fruits.pdf
1. Classification of fruits
Dr. M. Kumaresan (Hort.)

Pallavaram, Chennai, Tamil Nadu - 600117
2. On the basis of pattern and seasonality
Deciduous
• Trees which shed their leaves are recognized as deciduous and the fruits from such trees are termed as
deciduous fruits.
• Leaves are shed during a dry spell to overcome the water losses
• Deciduous trees havebroad flat leaves that receive a large amount of sunlight and require a greatamount of
water
• Examples include apricots, peaches, plums and nectarines
• Deciduous fruits are further grouped as pome (apples, pear, quince), drupe (peach, plum, apricot,
cherry, almond), small fruits (grape, berries), nuts (pecan, walnut, cashewnut)
3. Evergreens
• Unlike deciduous, evergreen trees keep their leaves around the year
• Leaves of evergreen trees are needle shaped to prevent the moisture loss from the tree.
• Examples include avocado, mango, guava, citrus and jamun
On the basis of pattern and seasonality
4. Classification of fruits based on climatic adaptability
Temperate fruits
• Temperate-climate fruits refer to all fruits that normally grow further than 23.5o from the equator
• These types of fruits can grow well in a colder climate
• In India, the temperate climatic zone area is found in the states of Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal
Pradesh, Uttarakhand, and parts of Arunachal Pradesh, Meghalaya, Manipur, Sikkim and Nagaland
• These fruit plants are generally deciduous and stand frost.
• E.g. apple, almond, peach, pear, plum, strawberry, apricot, persimmon, cherimoya, pecan nut, walnut,
hassle nut, cherry, pistachios and kiwifruits etc.
5. Tropical fruits
• The fruits that successfully grows between the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, at 23o North and South of the
equator are called tropical fruits.
• These tropical fruit plants are perennial, evergreen and are practically sensitive to temperatures below 10 °C
besides having limited resistance to frost.
• Additionally, most tropical fruit require humid environmental conditions
• E.g.: mango, banana, papaya, sapota, etc.,
Classification of fruits based on climatic adaptability
6. Sub-tropical fruits
• Like tropical fruits, sub-tropical fruits also grow along Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn but with higher
resistance to colder temperatures than tropical fruit.
• Some subtropical fruit plants require chilling for flower bud differentiation.
• Example; grape, citrus, durian, jackfruit, etc.,
Classification of fruits based on climatic adaptability
7. On the basis of morphology
Simple fruits
• Fruits which develop from a single ovary of a single flower
• E.g. lemon, lime, citrus, peach, apple, pear, etc.
9. Balusta: Large berry surrounded by a thick colored peel composed of exocarp and mesocarp
with edible arils inside
Pomegranate
10. Amphisarca: Fruit that is multi-celled and multi-seeded fruit that is pulpy inside
and has a hard or woody rind
Wood apple
Bael
11. Pome: Fruits consist of a central "core" containing multiple small seeds, which is enveloped by a hard
membrane and surrounded by an edible layer of flesh
12. Drupe: Pericarp or fruit wall is differentiated into thin epicarp (skin) fleshy mesocarp and
stony endocarp
14. Nut: Fruit consisting of a hard or tough nutshell protecting a kernel which is
usually edible
Capsule is a dry fruit that splits open (dehiscent) in 3 or more ways
15. On the basis of morphology
Aggregate Fruits
• Fruits that develop from many ovaries of a single flower
• E.g. raspberries, strawberries, blackberries
16. On the basis of morphology
Multiple Fruits
• Fruits which develop from many ovaries of many flowers,
• E.g. pineapple, Jack fruit, Fig
17. On the basis of bearing habit
Six categories
• Fruit buds borne terminally and giving rise to inflorescence without leaves. e.g. Mango, Cherry, etc.
• Fruit buds borne terminally and unfolding to produce leafy shoots which terminate in flower clusters. e.g. Apple
• Fruit buds borne terminally and unfolding to produce leafy shoots with flower or flower clusters e.g Guava
• Fruit bud borne laterally containing flower parts only and giving rise to inflorescence without leaves or leaves
present, they are reduced in size., e.g. Citrus
• Fruit bud borne laterally and unfolding to produce leafy shoots terminally in flower clusters this type of flowering is
noticed in grapes and cashewnut.
• Fruit buds borne laterally and unfolding to produce leafy shoots with flower clusters in leafy axils., eg.Fig.
18. Fruit buds borne terminally and giving rise to inflorescence without leaves
19. Fruit buds borne terminally and unfolding to produce leafy shoots which
terminate in flower clusters
20. Fruit buds borne terminally and unfolding to produce leafy shoots with
flower or flower clusters
21. Fruit bud borne laterally containing flower parts only and giving rise to
inflorescence without leaves or leaves present, they are reduced in size
22. Fruit bud borne laterally and unfolding to produce leafy shoots terminally in
flower clusters
23. Fruit buds borne laterally and unfolding to produce leafy shoots with flower
clusters in leafy axils
24. Fruits classified based on rate of respiration
Climacteric Fruit
• Mango, Banana, Sapota, Guava, Papaya, Apple, Fig,
Peach, Pear, Plum, Annona, Tomato
Non-climacteric Fruit
• Citrus, Grape, Pomegranate Pineapple Litchi, Ber,
Jamun, Cashew, Cucumber, Cherry, Strawberry
Climacteric fruits produce much larger amount of
ethylene than non climacteric fruits
25. Classification based on relative salt tolerance
Based on relative salt tolerance fruits are classified as
Highly tolerant Medium Tolerant Highly sensitive
• Datepalm
• Ber
• Amla
• Guava
• Coconut
• Pomegranate
• Cashew
• Fig
• Jamun
• Phalsa
• Mango
• Apple
• Citrus
• Pear
• Straw berry
26. Classification based on relative acid Tolerance
Highly tolerant Medium Tolerant
• Strawberry
• Raspberry
• Fig
• Bael
• Plum
• Pineapple
• Avocado
• Litchi
27. Classification based on photoperiodic responses
Long day Short day Day neutral plant
• Passion fruit
• Banana
• Apple
• Strawberry
• Pineapple
• Coffee
• Papaya
• Guava
