Bioconversion and characterization of watermelon rind waste‐based microcrystalline cellulose: A green alternative to synthetic reinforcements

open access: yesPolymer International, Volume 75, Issue 9, Page 818-831, September 2026.
Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) was extracted from watermelon rind using acid hydrolysis. MCC can be efficiently used as reinforcement in biofilms and biocomposites. Abstract The increasing accumulation of agricultural waste from watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) represents a substantial environmental concern, particularly in view of the extensive ...

Validation of the International Weed Genomics Consortium genome annotation pipeline through reannotation of the model species Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract The International Weed Genomics Consortium (IWGC) has sequenced and annotated the genomes of over 30 weed species, generating genomic resources to understand their biology, evolution, and adaptation. The objective of this study was to evaluate the semi‐automated, isoform sequencing (Iso‐seq)‐based, IWGC genome annotation pipeline by ...
