Extraction, Identification and Photo-Physical Characterization of Persimmon (Diospyros kaki L.) Carotenoids

Foods, 2017
Carotenoid pigments were extracted and purified from persimmon fruits using accelerated solvent extraction (ASE). Eleven pigments were isolated and five of them were clearly identified as all-trans-violaxanthine, all-trans-lutein, all-trans-zeaxanthin ...

Analysis of Buying Behavior of Consumers for Kaki (Diospyros Kaki L. cv. Fuyu)

Journal of the Japanese Society for Horticultural Science, 1980
For the rationalization of the distribution process of agricultural products, adequate standardizations of these products has been required. The present standards for fruits and vegetables are established by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry without sufficient investigations into the buying behavior of consumers.

Transposable elements: Functional aspects and applications as drivers of crop innovation

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Transposable elements (TEs), which were once relegated to the status of genomic parasites, are today accepted as important agents of plant genome evolution and adaptation. This review integrates evidence pointing to their dual function as drivers of genetic diversity and instability, with a focus on their contribution to phenotypic innovation,

Vertical Trait Variation Modulates Forest Biomass Dynamics in Two Japanese Forest Types

Journal of Vegetation Science, Volume 37, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
This study examined aboveground biomass (AGB) dynamics and community‐weighted mean (CWM) values of four functional traits across three forest layers in two temperate forest types. The results showed that the relationships between CWM traits and AGB dynamics differ among vertical layers, highlighting the importance of vertical heterogeneity in trait ...

Root Traits Predict the Soil Functional Responses of Subtropical Plant Species to Experimental Drought

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Plant species' habitat preference and drought tolerance traits were not the primary factors driving interspecific differences in soil functional responses to drought. Instead, fine root traits—particularly their chemical traits—played more critical roles in determining these variations.
