Reserve metabolism of stored and germinated Araucaria angustifolia seeds

Acta Scientiarum. Agronomy, 2019
Germination metabolism of recalcitrant seeds of Araucaria angustifolia is activated in storage, which complicates the seeds conservation and utilization. This study aimed to identify the changes in the reserve metabolites of A.

Metabolic profile of Brazilian pine embryos and megagametophyte of stored seeds

African Journal of Agricultural Research, 2016
Changes in availability of metabolites during seed deterioration might damage processes of synthesis and energy release for embryonic growth. This research aimed to determine which alterations occur in metabolic profile over storage of Araucaria angustifolia seeds and how these alterations are related to viability loss.

Elucidation of the polyamine biosynthesis pathway during Brazilian pine (Araucaria angustifolia) seed development [PDF]

Tree Physiology, 2017
Polyamines (PAs), such as spermidine and spermine, as well as amino acids that are substrates for their biosynthesis, are known to be essential for plant development. However, little is known about the gene expression and metabolic switches associated with the ornithine/arginine and PA biosynthetic pathway during seed development in conifers.

Crown Efficiency and Pine Cones Production for Brazilian Pine (Araucaria angustifolia (Bertol.) Kuntze) in South Brazil

Journal of Agricultural Science, 2019
Crown efficiency is a relation of growth with the area tree occupies (available area efficiency). Efficiency is associated with the vertical and lateral expansion capacity of the tree and crown, increase, density and light absorption. Thus, our study aimed to evaluate crown efficiency with pine cones∙tree-1 production and dendro/morphometric variables ...

Development of a “pinhão” (brazilian pine nut) peeling machine

, 2019
Resumo - A cadeia produtiva do pinhão envolve as etapas de colheita, descasque, industrialização e comercialização. Uma das dificuldades encontradas é a falta de equipamento capaz de descascar o produto, aumentando a capacidade de trabalho da atividade. O descascamento é um processo demorado e difícil, necessitando de intensa mão-de-obra. Este trabalho

Invisible Kitchens, Visible Values: Understanding Consumer Trust and Boundary Formation in Digital Food Experiences

Journal of Consumer Behaviour, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research investigates how consumers establish trust in ghost kitchens, a rapidly growing digital service format that eliminates physical interaction and redefines the boundaries of food consumption. Despite their growing popularity, ghost kitchens present a paradox of trust, as the absence of physical premises and direct interaction ...

Cognitive and behavioral clinical outcome assessments in children with developmental and epileptic encephalopathies: Issues and instruments

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Children with developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) face cognitive and behavioral challenges that may have a greater impact than seizures on their quality of life (QoL). The need to assess these nonseizure outcomes for evaluating treatments is increasingly recognized.

A New Vista of Opportunity in Diabetes Management: Natural Product‐Based β‐cell Preservation

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Preserving functional β‐cells via natural products offers promising strategy for diabetes treatment. ABSTRACT A defining characteristic of diabetes is β‐cell failure, in which β‐cells cannot modulate insulin secretion to compensate for escalating insulin resistance, pushing forward disease development.

Ajustes morfológicos e fisiológicos em plantas jovens de Araucária angustifolia (Bertol.) Kuntze em resposta ao sombreamento

Hoehnea
Este trabalho avaliou a capacidade de plantas de Araucaria angustifolia em ajustar alguns aspectos de sua morfologia e fisiologia a diferentes condições de luz. As plantas foram submetidas a irradiação plena e sombreamento (redução de 90%).
