Assessing Moisture Content of Coolstored Blueberries During Water Loss Scenarios Using Hyperspectral Imaging

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 2, June 2026.
Water loss is a key factor affecting the postharvest quality and shelf life of blueberries, and storage conditions (humidity and time) play an important role in regulating water retention capacity of stored berries. This study aims to explore the variation of moisture content (MC) in blueberries under different storage humidity and storage time ...

Early Physiological and Transcriptomic Responses of Container‐Grown Blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L. ‘Sierra’) to Partial Substrate Replacement With Biochar

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Biochar has been widely investigated for its potential to improve substrate properties and plant performance, offering a potential partial replacement for peat in soilless cultivation amid declining peat availability. However, information on its short‐term physiological and molecular effects during the early establishment of container‐grown ...

Quinoa Protein Concentrate as a Platform for the Protection and Controlled Delivery of Resveratrol and Tocopherol

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2026.
Graphical abstract illustrating the development of quinoa protein (QP) nanocarriers for the encapsulation of resveratrol (RSV) and tocopherol (TOC). ABSTRACT The objective of this work was to generate and characterize complexes of quinoa proteins (QP) with either resveratrol (RSV) or tocopherol (TOC) whose dimensions fell into the nanoscale.

Genome association of carbohydrate metabolites provides new insights toward functional breeding in coffee

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Coffee is one of the world's most widely consumed beverages, derived mainly from Coffea arabica, known for its superior flavor, and Coffea canephora (Robusta/Conilon), valued for its resilience and higher caffeine content. Functional breeding aims to develop cultivars that combine productivity and stress tolerance with improved health‐related ...

Can Artificial Intelligence Chatbots Plan Therapeutic Ketogenic Diets for Children With Epilepsy?

Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, Volume 39, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Ketogenic Diet Therapy (KDT) is an effective but complex treatment for paediatric drug‐resistant epilepsy. Access to trained dietitians limits the global use of KDT. The increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots for health and dietary advice presents both opportunities and risks.

Macronutrient composition in pollen affects development and survival in wild bees

Physiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 350-362, June 2026.
Small carpenter bees (Ceratina calcarata) were reared on diets formulated with black poplar and dandelion pollen, while closely monitoring developmental metrics, lipid content and survival. Macronutrient analyses on both pollen types revealed dandelion pollen contained lower levels of protein, essential amino acids and several fatty acids, which ...

Carbon Dots as Photoinitiators for Thiol–Ene Reactions

ChemCatChem, Volume 18, Issue 9, 14 May 2026.
A metal‐free and eco‐friendly approach for the anti‐Markovnikov hydrothiolation of olefins, using carbon dots (CDs) as bio‐derived photoinitiators, is presented herein. The procedure occurs in aqueous media upon visible light irradiation, and it is compatible with a broad range of thiols, alkenes, and alkynes.
