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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Influence of genetic diversity, drought stress and rhizobial symbiosis on the nutritional quality of common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) grain

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Legumes are the primary source of plant protein in both human and livestock diets and, therefore, play an essential role in nutrition. Common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) is a grain legume widely used in animal feed. Its nutritional properties, particularly its high protein content, make it an adequate component to enrich feedstuffs ...

Effect of bio‐fertilization and edapho‐climatic conditions on chickpea nodulation, grain yields, and seed protein in a Mediterranean context: a meta‐analysis approach

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) serve as a protein‐rich staple, particularly in Mediterranean countries, where they are often grown in marginal and water‐stressed areas. This meta‐analysis synthesized evidence from peer‐reviewed publications across Mediterranean countries to assess how chickpea rhizobial inoculation influences chickpea ...

The regulatory frameworks surrounding CRISPR‐edited papaya and their impact on international commerce

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract The papaya tree (Carica papaya L.), native to the Americas, is cultivated in tropical regions and holds substantial economic importance, with an estimated export volume of 365 000 t in 2023. However, diseases caused by viruses, fungi, bacteria, and nematodes can lead to severe losses.

Esterification enhances carotenoid retention during bread‐making

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Carotenoids are plant‐derived antioxidants that contribute to human health and represent key quality traits in wheat‐based foods. However, they are highly unstable and prone to degradation during processing. Xanthophyll esterification has been identified as a natural mechanism that enhances carotenoid stability during grain storage.

Influence of interstitial carbon dioxide on deoxynivalenol accumulation in stored wheat under varying Fusarium treatments and airtight storage conditions

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Temperature and moisture content are recognized as the main factors responsible for mycotoxin production in stored grain, while the role of gaseous environment, particularly interstitial CO2, remains unexplored. This study investigated the relationship between interstitial CO2 concentration (generated metabolically in air spaces ...

Changes in phenolic profile, physicochemical properties and sensory attributes of steamed bread fortified with golden kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis) flour during processing

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Chinese steamed bread (CSB) is a traditional East Asian staple. Its texture and nutrition depend on the gluten and starch content of the wheat flour that it contains. Incorporation of golden kiwifruit, which is rich in dietary fiber, vitamin C, and phenolic antioxidants, offers a novel fortification strategy.

Polyamine treatments: an effective strategy to improve crop yield and fruit colour and to preserve quality of ‘Mollar de Elche’ pomegranate fruit during storage at chilling temperatures

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Climate change in Spain is altering the optimal conditions for producing high‐quality ‘Mollar de Elche’ pomegranate fruit, due to reduced colour development in husk and arils. In addition, the pomegranate requires storage above 7–10 °C, depending on cultivar, to preserve its quality because it is susceptible to chilling injury (CI ...

Effect of packing conditions on the acrylamide content in black ripe olives

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Black ripe olives are considered a ‘low‐acid canned food’ and must be sterilized in order to be safe. Acrylamide, a potential carcinogen, is formed in black olives during the thermal treatment. It is known that the formation of acrylamide is dependent on the pH of the olive flesh. The purpose of this study was designed to assess the
