Influence of malting and fermentation on the nutritional composition, thermal stability, structural and physicochemical properties of a gluten-free flour blend of Digitaria exilis (Fonio) and date fruits

Applied Food Research
Childhood malnutrition is one of the major public health challenges in low- and middle-income countries. In this study, fonio and date flour blends were prepared and the effect of organic processing methods (fermentation and malting) and fortification on

The plant microbiome: From ecological foundations to precision microbial engineering for sustainable agriculture

iMeta, Volume 5, Issue 4, August 2026.
From ecological principles to precision engineering of plant microbiomes for sustainable agriculture. The plant holobiont integrates diverse microbial niches (including rhizosphere, endosphere, phyllosphere, seed, and aerial‐root mucilagesphere), host genetics (namely M genes), and host metabolites. Furthermore, molecular dialogues, including rhizobial

Effect of rotation of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) with fonio (Digitaria exilis) and millet (Pennisetum glaucum) on Macrophomina phaseolina densities and cowpea yield [PDF]

, 2008
Macrophomina phaseolina, the causal agent of charcoal rot, causes great damage to cowpea in the Sahel. One of the few options to manage the disease is by cropping nonhosts that may reduce the soil inoculum below a damage threshold level.

Valorizing Underutilized Cereals and Legumes: Optimizing Functional Properties of Composite Flour and Nutritional Composition of Extruded Puffed Snack From Fonio and Winged Bean Flour Blends

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigated quality attributes of fonio and winged bean composite flour and its extruded puffed snacks (EPSs). A simplex lattice mixture design was employed to obtain nine flour combinations. The functional properties of the composite flour were determined and thereafter it was processed into EPS using a twin‐screw extruder ...

Role of Millets for Food Security Under Climate Change

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The accelerating impacts of climate change pose significant threats to global food security, highlighting critical vulnerabilities within the agricultural system. As greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise, global temperatures have increased by 0.6°C over the 20th century, with projections indicating further increases of 0.1°C–2°C per decade.

Tolman's Sunburst Maze 80 Years on: A Meta‐Analysis Reveals Poor Replicability and Little Evidence for Shortcutting

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
In 1946, Tolman et al. reported that rats could take a novel shortcut to a goal after training on an indirect route, supporting the Cognitive Map theory. However, a review of subsequent Sunburst maze studies shows this is an outlier: shortcutting has been observed in only a relatively small fraction of experiments.
