Transcriptional activity, chromosomal distribution and expression effects of transposable elements in Coffea genomes [PDF]
Plant genomes are massively invaded by transposable elements (TEs), many of which are located near host genes and can thus impact gene expression. In flowering plants, TE expression can be activated (de-repressed) under certain stressful conditions, both

Growth environment strongly influences green coffee bean biochemistry, linking phytochemical composition to adaptation under abiotic stress. Abstract This study explores how bioactive compounds in green coffee beans (Coffea arabica L.) vary across different geographic regions, addressing the key question of how environmental factors shape coffee ...

Indigenous Management Practices to Reduce Pests and Pathogens of Cash Crops in Agroforestry Systems
The crop with the highest damages was cocoa (63.9% plants affected by black pod disease), followed by Fusarium stem rot was the second highest damage in crops (30.0% of vanilla plants infected). Insecticides and fungicides do not have a significant impact in reducing pest and pathogen infestation.

Unlocking fruit dimensions: Quantification of functional traits driving plant–frugivore interactions
Abstract Fleshy fruits attract animals to ingest fruit, swallow the seeds, and release them in the landscape, thus facilitating seed dispersal and plant regeneration. Attraction of animal dispersers is achieved via attractants such as color or scent, and rewards like sugars, lipids, and micronutrients.

Genetic and molecular determinism of diterpenes metabolism in Coffea spp [PDF]
Cafestol and kahweol are two coffee-specific diterpenes. Although various effects of these compounds have been shown or hypothesized on human health, little information is currently available on the genetic and molecular bases of their metabolism.

Microbial ecology and fermentation of Coffea canephora
Recent investigations into the microbiota and fermentation of Coffea canephora fruits and beans have yielded limited advancements globally, highlighting a developing field of study. Consequently, this review seeks to consolidate existing literature through an analysis focusing on the microbiota and fermentation processes inherent in the postharvest ...
