Rapid, simple and accessible phytonutritional assessment methods in agricultural research

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 105, Issue 12, Page 6516-6527, September 2025.
Abstract BACKGROUND Agricultural research with respect to studying the effects of genetic background and environmental conditions on plant and commercial parameters is ample. Nevertheless, data on the effects on nutritional value and phytonutritional composition are scarce, despite its significance to the consumer, as well as its importance in ...

Beetroot leaf extract enhances gut motility in a model of loperamide‐induced constipation in male rats: A phytopharmacological study

Physiological Reports, Volume 13, Issue 17, September 2025.
Abstract Constipation is a common gastrointestinal disorder characterized by infrequent and difficult bowel movements, hard stool consistency, and delayed intestinal transit. The present study evaluated the phytochemical profile and physiological effects of the aqueous extract of beetroot leaves (AEBL) in a rat model of Loperamide (LOP)‐induced ...

Enhancing extraction of betalains from beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) using deep eutectic solvents: optimization, bioaccessibility and stability

Food Production, Processing and Nutrition
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are the next generation of green solvents that are considered for their stability and biocompatibility. This study used 10 different DESs synthesized from choline chloride, alcohols, organic acids and sugars.

Genetic Analysis of Betacyanine, Betaxanthine, and Sucrose Concentrations in Roots of Table Beet

Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 1984
Abstract Genetic variation in pigment and sucrose concentrations of beet roots was investigated in a diallel cross among 9 inbred table beet lines. General combining ability (GCA) was significant for betacyanine, betaxanthine, and sucrose concentrations.

Soybean Cyst Nematode‐Resistant Protein AATRhg1 Affects Amino Acid Homeostasis and Betalain Accumulation

Plant Direct, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Amino acid transporters play crucial roles in plant nitrogen metabolism but also in defense responses. AATRhg1, an apparent amino acid transporter encoded by Glyma.18g022400 (Rhg1‐GmAAT) at the soybean Rhg1 locus, contributes to resistance to soybean cyst nematode (SCN), although the in planta function of AATRhg1 remains elusive. In this study,
