Control of anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway gene expression by eutypine, a toxin from Eutypa lata, in grape cell tissue cultures [PDF]
Eutypine, 4-hydroxy-3-(3-methyl-3-butene-1-ynyl) benzaldehyde, is a toxin produced by Eutypa lata, the causal agent of Eutypa dieback in grapevine. The effect of the toxin on anthocyanin synthesis has been investigated in Vitis vinifera cv.

Selenium biofortification: integrating one health and sustainability
Abstract Selenium (Se) biofortification in crops has emerged as a promising strategy to address global Se deficiencies and enhance both agricultural productivity and human health. Increasing the Se content of crops through biofortification improves their resilience to abiotic and biotic stresses and boosts their nutritional value.

Enhancing phytochemical composition and nutritional profiles in dry bean varieties through roasting
Abstract BACKGROUND Dry beans and chickpeas are nutritionally valuable legumes widely consumed worldwide. This study examines the impact of oven roasting (110 °C for 70 min) on the phytochemical, antioxidant, fatty acid and saponin profiles of 12 pulses, including 11 common beans and 1 chickpea. RESULTS Roasting significantly affected the phytochemical

Abstract BACKGROUND An understanding of grape ripening heterogeneity is essential to optimize vineyard management and to ensure wine quality. This study investigated the effect of calcareous soils with different textures (limestone and marlstone) on the chemical composition of white (‘Grillo’ (GR) and ‘Chardonnay’ (CH)) and red (‘Nero d’Avola’ (ND) and

Cyanidin‐3‐Glucoside Supplementation Modulates Bone Resorption in Experimental Apical Periodontitis [PDF]
Cyanidin‐3‐glucoside (C3G) supplementation was administered to Wistar rats for 45 days. Apical periodontitis (AP) was induced on Day 15 and allowed to progress for 30 days. Compared with controls, C3G‐treated animals showed a lower RANKL/OPG ratio and fewer TRAP‐positive cells, along with improved bone parameters, including increased bone volume ...
