Nontraditional production additives fail to improve potato yield and economic return
Agronomy Journal, Volume 115, Issue 2, Page 801-816, March/April 2023., 2023 Abstract Manufacturers of nontraditional crop additives may claim products will enhance yield and improve economic return, yet many offer only grower testimonials for product validation rather than unbiased, peer‐reviewed research. If the products do not perform as described, they may serve to reduce grower revenue.

Bacterial pigments: A colorful palette reservoir for biotechnological applications
Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, Volume 69, Issue 3, Page 981-1001, June 2022., 2022 Abstract Synthetic derivatives are currently used instead of pigments in many applicative fields, from food to feed, from pharmaceutical to diagnostic, from agronomy to industry. Progress in organic chemistry allowed to obtain rather cheap compounds covering the whole color spectrum. However, several concerns arise from this chemical approach, as it is
