Towards an Understanding of Genetic Control of Processing Quality Traits in Blackcurrant (<i>Ribes nigrum</i> L.)
Blackcurrant (Ribes nigrum L.) is a perennial shrub grown for its black piquant berries, rich in a variety of nutrients, phytochemicals and antioxidants. Blackcurrants are commercially grown in 21 countries mainly across temperate zones of Europe, Russia, and New Zealand and to a lesser extent …

The growth and productivity of ribes nigrum under various levels of shade and the implications for multifunctional woody polycultures
Black currants (Ribes nigrum) are an important horticultural crop across Europe and parts of Asia. In the United States, however, they have been relegated to a niche market, with little practical use to date. Much of this is due to the illegality of production throughout much of the 20th century, …

Characterization of blackcurrant berries (Ribes nigrum) and the evaluation of their bioactive compounds after ultrasound-assisted water extractions, enzymatic treatments, and fermentation
Blackcurrants (Ribes nigrum) (BC) have remained relatively unknown to the US market because they were prohibited from being grown in the US from the early 20th century until the 1980s. This was due to significant losses by the lumber industry, which discovered that some native and non-native …

Physicochemical characterization of ten blackcurrant (Ribes nigrum) cultivars, their bioactivity related to type 2 diabetes and inflammation, and chemical changes after lactic acid fermentation
Blackcurrants (Ribes nigrum) are small, astringent berries that are not well known in the United States due to being banned for almost a century from the spread of a fungus that threatened the timber industry. However, new fungus resistant cultivars of blackcurrants have been created, and the high …
