Low‐dose antifungal activity of plant extracts against crop pathogens: Evidence for Equisetum arvense

open access: yesJSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Plant extracts have emerged as eco‐friendly alternatives to synthetic pesticides, acting as bioinsecticides, biobactericides, or biofungicides. Results This study evaluated the antifungal activity of nine plant extracts: Croton lechleri, Flourensia cernua, Viscum album, Equisetum arvense, Allium sativum, and Eucalyptus globulus ...

Use of natural ensiling additives with tropical grasses: Physicochemical properties, in vitro fermentation characteristics, and microbial community diversity indices

open access: yesJSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Improving feed quality, availability, and cost‐effectiveness is a big challenge for livestock to ensure animal‐derived food for nutritional security. The aim of the study was to find out how some natural ensiling additives affect physicochemical properties, proximate composition, microbial population, in vitro fermentation ...

Metabolomics‐based study of the preservation mechanism of a tea saponin–cinnamaldehyde nanoemulsion applied to Xinyu tangerines

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The Xinyu tangerine is a geographical indication agricultural product from Jiangxi province, China. During postharvest storage, nutrient loss and pathogen‐induced decay reduce fruit quality. The selection of appropriate preservatives is therefore important for maintaining postharvest quality.

Disclosing the production of fungal chitinases and proteases using insect by‐products as substrates in solid‐state fermentation

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The world population is projected to reach nearly 9.7 billion by 2050, significantly increasing the demand for novel and sustainable protein sources. Edible insects, such as Tenebrio molitor, emerge as promising alternatives due to their high nutritional value, but adult insects and frass are direct and abundant by‐products of this ...

Beyond a dual role: how Purpureocillium lilacinum reprograms citrus metabolism for integrated biocontrol and growth promotion

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Plants harbor complex microbial communities that are fundamental to their health and productivity. Among them, endophytic fungi such as Purpureocillium lilacinum establish mutualistic associations, offering dual benefits as plant growth promoters and biocontrol agents.

Phenolic profile of selected grape (Vitis vinifera L.) varieties in the course of ripening and Botrytis cinerea infections

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Grapevine phenolic compounds play key roles in plant defense and wine quality. Composition depends on factors such as maturity and infections such as grey mold caused by Botrytis cinerea. Grapevines respond to infections by actively modifying their phenolic profile.

Degradation kinetics of postharvest quality attributes of rocket leaves grown under different nitrogen rates

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Diplotaxis tenuifolia L. cv Dallas (rocket leaves) is one of the most widely consumed fresh‐cut salad vegetables in Europe, especially in southern Italy, being appreciated for its pungent taste and health promoting phytochemicals. However, its short postharvest shelf‐life is still a major drawback.
