Application of CFS‐Loaded CMC/GEL Spray Coating for the Small Fruit Blueberries Preservation

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Schematic illustration showing the fabrication of the CFS‐loaded CMC/GEL composite spray coating and its application in the blueberry preservation. The preservation experiment indicated that the blueberries sprayed with 100% CFS/CMC/GEL exhibited a lower decay rate, reduced weight loss, and lower malondialdehyde (MDA) level compared with the control ...

Uptake and Transport of Monotropein and Monotropein Esters in a Caco‐2/HT29‐MTX‐E12 Co‐Culture Model

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 70, Issue 15, 17 August 2026.
Monotropein and its naturally occurring ester derivatives (monotropein‐10‐coumarate and monotropein‐10‐cinnamate) from Gaultheria spp. berries exhibit limited intestinal permeability in a validated Caco‐2:HT29‐MTX‐E12 co‐culture model. Absorption occurs predominantly via passive diffusion, with partial SGLT1‐ and OATP‐mediated uptake contribution for ...

Water and Gas Exchange Responses of Five Related Blueberry Species (Ericaceae spp.) to the Dry Season in the High‐Andean Forest of the Colombian Eastern Cordillera

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Vaccinium, Cavendishia, and Macleania are typical genera of blueberries from the Ericaceae belt, a narrow ecosystem that connects the high Andean forest and páramo, where fragmentation makes the species more vulnerable to climate change. To answer the question of whether five related blueberry species could physiologically behave similarly in ...

Omics Insights Into the Effects of Highbush Blueberry and Cranberry Crop Agroecosystems on Honey Bee Health and Physiology

PROTEOMICS, Volume 26, Issue 8, Page 41-57, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Honey bees (Apis mellifera) are vital pollinators in fruit‐producing agroecosystems like highbush blueberry (HBB) and cranberry (CRA). However, their health is threatened by multiple interacting stressors, including pesticides, pathogens, and nutritional changes.

Plant Domestication Affects the Oviposition Behavior and Performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a Parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 908-921, August 2026.
In this study, we investigated the effects of blueberry domestication on the oviposition behavior and performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii. Domestication of blueberries reduced the oviposition‐searching behavior of the parasitoid but enhanced parasitoid performance, including offspring performance. Additionally, blueberry
