Potato cultivars Blaue St. Galler, Valfi, HB Red (with purple- and red-colored flesh), Irga, and Satina (with cream- and yellow-colored flesh) were treated with Trifender WP, Asahi SL, Bio-Algeen S90, and Kelpak SL. The influence of biostimulants on the P, K, Ca, Mg, and Na contents of potato skin and flesh was determined immediately after harvest and after storage. The highest content of Ca in the...

Background. It seems that one of the factors affecting the way of nutrition in Poland was the dietary habits of countries that in the late 18th century made partitions, ie. Russia, Prussia and Austria. Therefore, nutrition models in the areas of individual partitions have undergone significant changes. Objective. The aim of the study was to check whether after 85 years after regaining independence...

Five potato cultivars were grown in a micro-plot field experiment (under conditions of natural infection by pathogens). In experimental treatments, potatoes were treated with Trifender WP, whereas control plants were not treated with growth regulators. A greenhouse experiment, conducted simultaneously, involved three treatments: 1. control (no biostimulant treatment, no inoculation), 2. inoculation...

The aim of this study was to determine the influence of biostimulants on the content of selected microelements in the skin and flesh of potato tubers. Five potato cultivars were grown: Irga, Satina (with cream- and yellow-colored flesh), Valfi, Blaue St. Galler (with purple-colored flesh) and Highland Burgundy Red - HB Red (with red-colored flesh). Potatoes were treated with the following biostimulants:...

Based on two-year experiments on inoculated corn, including genotypes of sweet corn (Zea mays var. saccharata) and popcorn (Zea mays var. everta), the analysis of fumonisin FB1 content in kernels was performed. Infection degree of sweet corn was 2.00 and 2.13, which was distinctly stronger than infection of popcorn cobs (0.52 and 1.05). Despite of higher disease rating of Zea mays var. saccharata,...

Bipolaris sorokiniana is a dangerous pathogen of plants from Poaceae family. A secondary metabolite with carcinogenic properties produced by this fungus is sterigmatocystin. A field experiment with inoculation of the grain of 9 spring barley genotypes with B. sorokiniana No. 36 was carried out in the years 2012–2014 in the Zamość region. Field observations revealed leaf spot caused by B. sorokiniana...

Fungi of the genus Fusarium infect cereal crops during the growing season and cause head blight (FHB). Their secondary metabolites (mycotoxins) contaminate grain. Mycotoxins are not degraded during standard food and feed processing operations or in vivo digestion, and are dangerous to human health. In a three-year field experiment we evaluated the effects of biological control agents and a plant biostimulator...

Broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica) contains numerous biologically active compounds. However, their levels change during processing and storage. The objective of the research study was to determine the effect of short-term storage (1 ÷ 4 days) of broccoli heads at different temperatures (3 ºC, 16 ºC, and 21 ºC) on the contents of phenolic acids, selected flavonoids (quercetin and kaempferol),...

The aim of the study was to determine the yield and its components and selected minerals (N, P,K, Ca, Mg, Na) in winter triticale grain as affected by foliar fertilisation with micronutrients, eitherused individually or in combination. A field experiment was carried out at the Educational and Experimental Station in Tomaszkowo (53o72 N; 20o42 E), Poland. Regardless of the year, supplementation of...

Background. Mineral supplementation is important whenever any dietary deficiencies of these nutrients occur. However, an excessive consumption of such products can lead to the negative health consequences. Objectives. To estimate the mineral supplements contribution to total dietary intake for adults living in Warsaw. Materials and Methods. Within the frame of the EHES JA Poland and WAW-KARD Projects...

Background. Abnormal body mass and related metabolic disorders may affect female reproductive health. Objectives. To determine the prevalence of under- and overweight, and also related metabolic disorders, among women at procreative age in Warsaw. Materials and Methods. 164 non-pregnant women at procreative age (20-49 years) living in Warsaw, who in 2011-2012 participated in the WAW-KARD cross-sectional...

ungal development in fodder substrates including maize has noxious effects: changes in technological properties, reduction of nutritive value, the development of mycosis and allergy agents, and the biosynthesis of refuse factors and zootoxic compounds called mycotoxins. The aim of this study was to evaluate the variation in concentrations of major Fusarium toxins along with the analysis of ergosterol...

Przeprowadzone badania wykazały, że znaczącą rolę w procesie syntezy heterocyklicznych amin aromatycznych (HCA) odgrywają dodatki stosowane w procesie produkcji przetworów mięsnych. Wysoka temperatura podczas grillowania sprzyja powstawaniu wymienionych związków, dlatego też podjęto próbę odpowiedniego doboru marynat, których skład mógłby wpłynąć na obniżenie poziomu stężenia kancerogennych HCA. Do...
