The effect of different processing methods on nutrient retention in African leafy vegetables (fig‐leaf gourd leaves)

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Inadequate nutrition is a leading factor in global health challenges, particularly in sub‐Saharan Africa, where malnutrition and hunger remain widespread. Fig‐leaf gourd (Cucurbita ficifolia), a nutrient‐dense African leafy vegetable, is readily available to low‐income populations and holds promise for improving micronutrient intake

Mitochondrial and apicoplast genome copy abundances of haemosporidian parasites are explained by host species and parasitic lineage

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Endosymbiotic organelles, such as mitochondria and plastids, contain own remnant genomes (nucleoids), whose variable abundance in cells may be adaptive to the physiological necessities and functions of the cells.

Selenium biofortification: integrating one health and sustainability

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Selenium (Se) biofortification in crops has emerged as a promising strategy to address global Se deficiencies and enhance both agricultural productivity and human health. Increasing the Se content of crops through biofortification improves their resilience to abiotic and biotic stresses and boosts their nutritional value.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Chloroplasts

, 2013
Photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts, lens-shaped plastids found in green algae and higher plants. Chloroplasts originated from prokaryotic symbionts; they contain circular DNA molecules (chloroplast DNA (cpDNA)) in multiple copies that code for ∼100 genes or even less in certain species.

Metagenomic and biogenic amine changes in cassava fermentation for tucupi production using Pediococcus acidilactici starter culture

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The use of starter cultures is essential for producing fermented foods with desirable standardized characteristics and for preventing pathogens. Pediococcus acidilactici, isolated from cocoa fermentation, was used in the production of tucupi, a widely appreciated sauce made from the juice of cassava root (manipueira) in the ...
