Comparative Analysis of Stress Adaptation in the Yeast Microbiome of Cactus
Yeasts and related fungi isolated from cacti or nearby non‐cactus plants were characterized phenotypically and genomically, revealing differences that hint at modes of adaptation to the cactus host. ABSTRACT Together with other fungi, yeasts make up a significant component of the plant microbiome. As the planet warms, cacti expand their range.

‘More Beastliness Than Beauty’: Gendering Pica in Seventeenth‐Century English Medicine and Culture
ABSTRACT Today, defined as the ‘persistent eating of non‐nutritive substances’, pica is a lesser‐known eating disorder with a long history. Defined in early modern England as the ‘desire to eat absurd things’, pica was explicitly gendered, associated with pregnant women and pubescent girls.

Genomic variation drives plant flavor diversification
This review explains how genomic variation shapes plant flavor by altering the biosynthetic and regulatory pathways of key attributes like sweetness, acidity, bitterness, piquancy, astringency, and aroma. It also discusses how multi‐omics, AI‐assisted breeding, and gene editing can translate this knowledge into plants with improved flavor, nutrition ...

DRYING KINETICS OF APRICOTS KERNELS
In this paper, we proposed convective and combined methods for drying wet kernels of apricot stones. Kernels of apricot stones are a very ambiguous food product, during their heat treatment in them occurs not only the loss of mass due to the removal of moisture, but also the loss of mass due to biochemical changes occurring at high temperatures. It was

Comparison of Antidiabetic and Antioxidant Activities of Sweet and Bitter Apricot Kernels
Fruits and their kernels have important phytochemical components for human health and nutrition. The fruits and their kernels have antioxidant effects by their seconder metabolites. Apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) is an important fruit because of its functional properties with both its fruits and kernels.

Metabolomics Data Revealed Metabolite Changes during Endocarp Lignification in Kernel-Using Apricot
To understand the metabolite dynamics and genetic regulatory mechanism of apricot shell, a typical endocarp, before and after lignification are unknown, we investigated the metabolite differences of the endocarp of ‘Youyi,’ a popular kernel-using apricot

ABSTRACT This study investigates the impact of geographical indication (GI) certification on the export performance of Turkish agri‐food products by analyzing both trade volume and unit value dynamics. Drawing on monthly data from 2000 to 2024 across 22 GI‐certified products, the research employs product‐level regressions, fixed‐effects panel models ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Food additives are widely used to extend the shelf life of foods and maintain their quality. In this study, the potential of Prunus laurocerasus and Prunus cerasifera fruit pits (endocarp and seed) as food additives was investigated in terms of cytotoxicity, antigenotoxicity, antioxidant activity, enzymatic anti‐browning, and urease

Selection of Wheat Germ Drying Methods Using Multi‐Criteria Decision‐Making Techniques
The parameters for the analysis of dried wheat germ were weighted using the MEREC method, with the most critical criterion being antioxidant capacity. The COBRA method was employed to evaluate a total of 15 alternatives. The most effective drying method for wheat germ was determined to be the combination of vacuum pre‐drying and microwave finish‐drying
