A non-destructive method for monitoring the ripening of tomatoes based on their induction of chlorophyll fluorescence

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Engineering, 2020
Maturity is one of the most important factors associated with assessing the quality of tomatoes. The aim of this study is to develop a new device to measure the degree of ripeness of tomato fruits based on chlorophyll fluorescence.

Glyphosate uncouples gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence [PDF]

open access: yesPest Management Science, 2010
AbstractBACKGROUND: Changes in chlorophyll fluorescence have often been advocated as a sensitive biomarker of plant stress, assuming that any kind of plant stress serious enough to affect plant growth will also affect photosynthesis. Glyphosate affects photosynthetic electron transport indirectly by inhibiting sink processes.

Over‐Expression of a Phycocyanin‐Interferon Fusion and Differential Cleaving Efficiency in Cyanobacteria (Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803)

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recombinant protein expression in heterologous biological systems is an expanding field in synthetic biology. Photosynthetic organisms have the potential to provide an efficient low‐cost platform for recombinant protein production because they require minimal growth nutrients and are less susceptible to zoonotic and other contaminants ...

The Application of Carbon Dots in Crops for Sustainable Agriculture

open access: yesChemistryEurope, EarlyView.
Carbon dots serve as versatile nanoagents across the crop life cycle. They promote plant growth and photosynthesis, enhance resilience to biotic and abiotic stresses, aid in postharvest preservation, and enable sensitive detection of contaminants.

Optimization of a reactor for biostimulant production with emphasis on the economic aspects of hydrolysis

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Biostimulants are increasingly used in agriculture to promote plant growth, improve stress tolerance, and support sustainable farming practices. One common method of production is chemical hydrolysis of protein‐rich waste, such as tannery by‐products, offering an economical and eco‐friendly alternative to conventional raw materials.
