ZZE-Configuration of chromophore ß-153 in C-phycocyanin from Mastigocladus laminosus [PDF]

, 1987
The photochemistry of C-phycocyanin has been studied after denaturation in the dark. It shows an irreversible reaction which has characteristics of a Ζ,Ζ,Ε- to Z,Z,Z-isomerization of dihydrobilins. Its amplitude depends on the reaction conditions, with

Degradation of pigments in Limnospira platensis extracts

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Limnospira platensis, commonly known as spirulina, holds promise for application as a food ingredient and nutraceutical due to its rich protein and antioxidant content, including chlorophylls, carotenoids and phycocyanin. Despite its potential, the vibrant colour poses a challenge for consumer acceptance, hampering the marketability

Trellis systems ameliorate heat damage by regulating canopy temperature, photosynthetic efficiency and leaf microstructure of grapevine

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionGlobal warming has made heat stress a major constraint on grapevine growth and grape production. This study aimed to evaluate the heat tolerance of three prevalent trellis systems—V-shaped (VT), upward-trained pendulous (U-PT), and H-shaped ...

Polyamine treatments: an effective strategy to improve crop yield and fruit colour and to preserve quality of ‘Mollar de Elche’ pomegranate fruit during storage at chilling temperatures

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Climate change in Spain is altering the optimal conditions for producing high‐quality ‘Mollar de Elche’ pomegranate fruit, due to reduced colour development in husk and arils. In addition, the pomegranate requires storage above 7–10 °C, depending on cultivar, to preserve its quality because it is susceptible to chilling injury (CI ...

Selenium biofortification of pea (Pisum sativum L.) microgreens through seed priming: Effects on agronomic performance and nutritional quality

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Selenium (Se) deficiency is a widespread nutritional problem. Agronomic biofortification of microgreens through seed nutripriming is a promising approach to enhance Se intake. Microgreens, comprising nutrient‐dense foods that can be produced year‐round, are ideal targets for biofortification and may help alleviate malnutrition. This

Effect of Anabaena sp. PCC7120 on the Tolerance of Rice (Oryza sativa L. cv Maratelli) Seedlings Against Lindane

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lindane (γ‐hexachlorocyclohexane, γ‐HCH) is a broad‐spectrum pesticide widely used since the 1950s until its inclusion in the Stockholm Convention list of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) in 2009, together with other HCH isomers. The high persistence and mismanagement of the toxic wastes generated during its synthesis have led to serious ...

Sediment trap preservative choice impacts particle‐associated microbial community composition

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding and quantifying the microbial contribution to particulate organic matter (POM) flux and carbon cycling in the ocean relies largely on the collection of sinking POM. A critical aspect of evaluating microbial communities on sediment trap‐collected POM is their preservation until recovery and sample processing.

The biosynthesis of galactolipids in red clover (Trifolium pratense) : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry [PDF]

, 1972
Galactolipids occur in all cells capable of the photosynthetic evolution of oxygen. The main galactolipids are monogalactosyl diglyceride (MGDG), digalactosyldiglyceride (DGDG) and sulfolipid (SL), MGDG being the most abundant.

A new combination and typification of Pouzolzia peteri Friis (Urticaceae)

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Pouzolzia peteri, a lesser‐known species from the African continent, is currently classified as a member of the genus Pouzolzia. However, based on the morphological characteristics of its male flowers and leaf venation, its transfer to the genus Gonostegia is proposed.
