Capsaicinoids and pungency in Capsicum chinense and Capsicum baccatum fruits
Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2018 Capsicum chinense Jacq. and C. baccatum var. pendulum fruits are widely used in the food and processed food industry, in Peru, but their seeds and placentas are discarded as residues. This study aimed to quantify the proportion of edible (pericarp) and non-edible (seeds, placenta and interlocular septa) parts of the fruits, in market condition (semi ...

Shade and Drought Shape Stomatal Kinetics in Beech Saplings
Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 2, March/April 2026.ABSTRACT Stomata and photosynthesis respond at different rates to rapid changes in light availability, resulting in different dynamics of water and carbon fluxes. Here, we investigated how growth conditions, drought, and potassium availability affect the dynamics of stomatal conductance and photosynthesis in response to rapid changes of irradiance in ...

The Plant Journal, Volume 125, Issue 5, March 2026.SUMMARY Fruit pigmentation mainly controlled by chlorophyll, carotenoids, and flavonoids is an important phenomenon for fortifying the nutritional and esthetic value of humans. Our previous study identified Pseudo‐Response Regulator 2 (PRR2) as a regulator of fruit pigmentation through its association with the c1 locus.

A structural perspective on α‐glucan catabolism in oxygenic phototrophs
The Plant Journal, Volume 125, Issue 3, February 2026.SUMMARY Starch and glycogen are the main α‐glucan storage polymers in oxygenic photoautotrophs, ensuring metabolic continuity during day/night cycles and environmental stress. Their mobilization requires a suite of catabolic enzymes whose activities are tightly regulated to balance carbon storage with energy demands.

Fast method for capsaicinoids analysis from Capsicum chinense fruits
Food Research International, 2014 Chili peppers are widely utilized in the world as savory food additives due the pungency induced by the capsaicinoids. Also, these compounds have functional properties as antimutagenic, antitumoral, antioxidant and analgesic. These characteristics increase the interest in this compound class, hence the capsaicinoid analysis must be reproducible and ...
