Extracts From Grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) Peel via Microwave-Assisted and Conventional Extractions: Evaluation of Nosema Infection and Toxicity in Honey Bees. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
Conventional and microwave‐assisted extractions of grapefruit peels were optimized using response surface methodology (RSM) based on TPC, TFC, and antioxidant activity (DPPH). The phytochemical profiles of the two optimum extracts were characterized via HPLC before evaluating their acute and chronic toxicity, as well as their effects on honey bee (Apis

Variation of Seasonal Temperature and Water Stress Modify the Composition of Leaf Essential Oils in Grapefruit (Citrus x aurantium var. paradisi), Sweet Orange (Citrus x aurantium var. sinensis) and Clementine (Citrus x aurantium var. clementina) Trees. [PDF]

Chem Biodivers
ABSTRACT Mainly grown for food, citrus trees are also highly used as sources of aromatic essential oils (EOs) by the cosmetics and perfume industries. The EOs composition is highly complex with more than hundred compounds. It varies according to cultivation techniques, climatic conditions, and environmental stresses, whether of biotic or abiotic origin.

Potential biological application of silver nanoparticles synthesized from Citrus paradisi leaves. [PDF]

Sci Rep
Developing sustainable and eco-friendly methods for nanoparticle (NP) production in an era of environmental consciousness is crucial. This study introduces a novel approach to synthesizing silver (Ag) NPs using Citrus paradisi leaves extract (CPLE) as a green precursor at optimum conditions of the AgNO3 (2 mM) with CPLE in 1:3 ratio, at pH 14 and 80 °C

Targeting the "bitterness gene" by genome editing abolishes synthesis of bitter flavanones in citrus; prospects for new varieties and extended climates for cultivation. [PDF]

Plant J
SUMMARY Bitterness in citrus fruit is conferred by flavanone‐neohesperidosides, whose accumulation is catalyzed by a single enzyme flavanone‐7‐O‐glucosides‐1,2‐rhamnosyltransferase (1,2RhaT), expressed in both leaves and fruit. To eliminate citrus bitterness, we used CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing to inactivate the 1,2RhaT gene in grapefruit (Citrus ...

High Environmental Irradiance Induces Anatomical and Ultrastructural Damage in Citrus Leaves. [PDF]

Physiol Plant
ABSTRACT Climate change is intensifying episodes of high irradiance and thermal stress, posing a major threat to the sustainability of citrus production. Although reflective particle films have emerged as mitigation tools, their protective effects at the anatomical and ultrastructural levels under field conditions remain insufficiently understood. Here,
