Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Hands‐on protocol for preparing water‐soluble fractions from agri‐food samples for NMR‐based metabolomics analysis

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This research protocol outlines a workflow for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)‐based metabolomics in the agri‐food sector. Using two case studies—strawberry leaves (solid matrix) and wine (liquid matrix)—it details the procedures for sample preparation, data acquisition, and processing.

Critical Thickness Ratio for Buckled and Wrinkled Fruits and Vegetables

, 2013
Fruits and vegetables are usually composed of exocarp and sarcocarp and they take a variety of shapes when they are ripe. Buckled and wrinkled fruits and vegetables are often observed. This work aims at establishing the geometrical constraint for buckled

Shape Extraction Methods for Fruits: Technical Review

International Journal of Computer Applications, 2015
Fruit categorizations in agriculture industry have upgraded from traditional grading to automatic grading over the past 25 years. To identify object residing in image, the image has to be described or represented by certain features. Shape is an important visual feature of an image. Shape extraction has attracted much attention lately.

Genome-Wide Identification of GW5-LIKE Family Revealed the Function of ClGL1 Involved in Fruit and Seed Shape by Mediating Brassinosteroid Signaling in Watermelon

Horticulturae
The regulatory mechanism of brassinolide (BR) signaling in cucurbitaceae crops remains incompletely understood. Previous research demonstrated that the rice genes GW5 and GW5L modulate seed morphology via the BR pathway.
