Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Prediction of Dry Matter and Starch Content in Cassava Using Optimized Calibration Models. [PDF]

J Food Sci
ABSTRACT Dry matter content (DMC) and starch content (StC) are key quality traits in cassava breeding, yet traditional phenotyping methods are time‐consuming and limit scalability. This study aimed to develop and compare predictive models for DMC and StC using near‐infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, evaluating two devices—a benchtop spectrometer (Büchi ...

Studies of genetic diversity and genome-wide association for vitamin C content in lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) using high-throughput SNP arrays. [PDF]

Plant Genome
Abstract Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) is a source of beneficial compounds though they are generally present in low quantities. We used 40K Axiom and 9K Infinium SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) arrays to (i) explore the genetic variability in 21 varieties and (ii) carry out genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) of vitamin C content in21 varieties ...

Report of the Scientific Committee of the Spanish Agency for Food Safety and Nutrition (AESAN) on the conservation conditions of halved fruits in retail establishments

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 1, Issue 1, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Regulation (EC) No. 852/2004 on the hygiene of foodstuffs, provides that food business operators are primarily responsible for food safety. In addition, it stipulates that food that cannot be stored safely at room temperatures shall maintain a cold chain and temperature requirements should be established based on a scientific risk assessment ...

Reassessing Drought Tolerance in Citrus Tetraploid Rootstocks: Myth or Reality? [PDF]

Physiol Plant
Abstract Polyploidy, particularly tetraploidy, has emerged as a promising tool in citrus rootstock breeding due to its potential to enhance drought tolerance. This review examines the role of tetraploid rootstocks in drought resilience, focusing on molecular and physiological adaptations observed in controlled environments and field conditions ...

Astringency sub‐qualities of red wines and the influence of wine–saliva aggregates

International Journal of Food Science &Technology, Volume 56, Issue 10, Page 5382-5394, October 2021., 2021
Wine tannins and saliva protein interactions, and the role of its aggregates on astringency perception. ​ Summary Astringency is a sensory attribute, related to the quality and mouthfeel of red wines. However, the origin of astringency sub‐qualities, such as the typical drying astringency found in immature grapes, is still unknown.

Large‐scale genome‐wide association study, using historical data, identifies conserved genetic architecture of cyanogenic glucoside content in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) root

The Plant Journal, Volume 105, Issue 3, Page 754-770, February 2021., 2021
Significance Statement The high cyanogenic glucoside content in some cassava varieties prevents herbivory but can be toxic for human consumption. The identification of an intracellular transporter gene and its allelic variation allow us to identify cultivars with up to 30% reduced cyanogenic glucoside content in cassava root. Summary Manihot esculenta (
