Automatic Brix Measurement for Watermelon Breeding
Applied Sciences, 2022 Sweetness or sugar content, represented by soluble solids contents (SSC), is a vital quality trait in watermelon breeding which can be assessed by the refractive index method. However, sampling watermelon juice out of the pulp is a process that is both labor-intensive and error-prone.

Quantitative Trait Loci mapping for sugar-related traits in sweet sorghum based on high-density SNP markers : P0187 [PDF]
, 2013 Sweet sorghum, a C4 tropical grass, is becoming an important bioenergy crop. Characterizing quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling sugar content in its stem can lead to the identification of target regions for molecular breeding programs.

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.Date syrup are used as sweetener in bread. Bread with date syrup had superior phenolic composition, better antioxidant properties and carbohydrate hydrolysing enzymes while bread with granulated sugar had higher predicted glyceamic index. The study concluded that date syrup could be the next though‐out ingredient for dual purpose in bread. ABSTRACT The

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.Lychee starch coatings enriched with procyanidins showed strong antifungal activity and effectively preserved strawberry quality postharvest, reducing weight loss, decay, and senescence. This highlights their potential as a sustainable natural alternative for shelf‐life extension and fungal control in fresh produce.
