The main purpose of the hybrid cultivar was high yield and year-round production of napa cabbage after 1960. [11] To enable year round production of napa cabbage, it has to be modified to tolerate high and low temperatures. Normally, sowing in the late summer and harvesting in late autumn can produce high quality vegetables.
Chlorophyll fluorescence, an indication of the fate of excitation energy in the photosynthetic apparatus, has been used indicator for heat stress tolerance. [11] (E) Chlorophyll content and stay green. Chlorophyll content and stay green traits have been found to be associated with heat stress tolerance.,.
Thermotolerance is the ability of an organism to survive high temperatures. An organism's natural tolerance of heat is their basal thermotolerance . [ 1 ] Meanwhile, acquired thermotolerance is defined as an enhanced level of thermotolerance after exposure to a heat stress.
Evaporative cooling chambers (ECCs), also known as "zero energy cool chambers" (ZECCs), are a type of evaporative cooler, which are simple and inexpensive ways to keep vegetables fresh without the use of electricity. Evaporation of water from a surface removes heat, creating a cooling effect, which can improve vegetable storage shelf life.
Brassica oleracea is a plant species from the family Brassicaceae that includes many common cultivars used as vegetables, such as cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, kale, Brussels sprouts, collard greens, Savoy cabbage, kohlrabi, and gai lan.
Amid another grueling summer heat wave, keep your medications in mind. Heat and humidity fluctuations may make drugs less effective, experts say. Amid extreme heat, don't make these common ...
The sensible heat of molten salt is also used for storing solar energy at a high temperature, [10] termed molten-salt technology or molten salt energy storage (MSES). Molten salts can be employed as a thermal energy storage method to retain thermal energy.
Elements like heat, humidity, light, and air are the “main enemies of vitamin freshness,” says Blatner. “Keep them cool, dry, and out of the sun.” So, probably not in your medicine cabinet.
