Manipulating the Light Systemic Signal HY5 Greatly Improve Fruit Quality in Tomato

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study establishes that HY5, activated by low‐dose light, acts as a systemic signal to enhance tomato fruit quality by directly promoting carotenoid synthesis and sugar metabolism. These findings demonstrate HY5's mobility from leaves to fruits and its application potential through nighttime LED lighting, offering a practical strategy for crop ...

Pretreatment of citrus by-products affects polyphenol recovery:a review [PDF]

, 2018
A large amount of citrus waste is generated annually. This waste is of great economic worth, since it contains high levels of polyphenols, which have attracted scientific interest due to their potent antimicrobial and antiradical activities. Pretreatment

Multimodal Dataset for Localization, Mapping and Crop Monitoring in Citrus Tree Farms [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
In this work we introduce the CitrusFarm dataset, a comprehensive multimodal sensory dataset collected by a wheeled mobile robot operating in agricultural fields. The dataset offers stereo RGB images with depth information, as well as monochrome, near-infrared and thermal images, presenting diverse spectral responses crucial for agricultural research ...

US employment exposure to domestic and foreign tariff changes under NAFTA

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract Literature examining the effects of changes in trade agreements and import competition on US employment and wages has focused primarily on non‐agricultural industries and changes in US import tariffs. We propose a method for measuring worker exposure to changes in agricultural tariffs using a newly developed county‐level dataset of employment ...

Stringency and dissimilarity of Maximum Residue Levels affect bilateral agri‐food trade stability

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract Food standards are rising in both prevalence and stringency. They protect consumers and may enhance demand stability but also pose compliance challenges to producers, with ambiguous effects on the stability of trade relationships. We analyze the impact of importers' Maximum Residue Levels (MRLs) along with bilateral MRL dissimilarity between ...

Evaluation of fruit quality in a lemon cybrid with mandarin mitochondria [PDF]

, 2008
Nutritional and organoleptic qualities of fruit are currently very important objectives for plant breeders. Organic acids, sugars and carotenoids were studied by high liquid chromatography on the pulp of a citrus cybrid.

Yield Evaluation of Citrus Fruits based on the YoloV5 compressed by Knowledge Distillation [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
In the field of planting fruit trees, pre-harvest estimation of fruit yield is important for fruit storage and price evaluation. However, considering the cost, the yield of each tree cannot be assessed by directly picking the immature fruit. Therefore, the problem is a very difficult task.

Incorporating economic multipliers in a bid adjustment algorithm for public food procurement decision making

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract We present an adjusted bid price mechanism that incorporates economic multiplier effects in public food procurement decision making. Under Input–Output model assumptions, the algorithm estimates enhanced tax revenues to state governments through multiplier effects associated with in‐state supplier purchasing.
