Flight of the dragons: a global review of migration in Odonata

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Insects are the most abundant and ecologically important animal migrants. Yet, we know relatively little about the patterns and processes underlying insect migration. Dragonflies (Anisoptera) and damselflies (Zygoptera) comprise the ancient insect order Odonata, whose ancestors were the first organisms to fly on Earth.

Characterizing Low Falling Number in the Absence of Elevated Alpha‐Amylase Activity in Soft White Wheat and the Impact on Japanese Sponge Cakes

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Non‐alpha‐amylase induced low falling number was identified in 2024 soft white wheat. The objectives of this work were to characterize these low falling number samples and determine the impact on end‐product quality. The results were analyzed to determine differences in flour characteristics that might result in a low

Drying kinetics of glutinous rice using an infrared irradiation technique

Engineering and Applied Science Research, 2018
This study investigates the drying kinetics of glutinous rice using an infrared irradiation technique. The glutinous rice was dried at three infrared irradiation powers, 300, 400 and 500 W, with three thicknesses, 5, 10 and 15 mm.

Impact of A‐/B‐Type Starch Granule Ratios in Reconstituted Wheat Flour on Dough and Bread Properties

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Wheat starch comprises two granule populations, A‐ and B‐type, whose relative proportions influence the quality of wheat‐based products. In this study, 20% of wheat flour was replaced with blends of starch mixtures (A‐/B‐type ratios 100:0–0:100) and vital wheat gluten to investigate their effects on dough and bread ...

A comparative proteomic study of white and black glutinous rice leaves

Electronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2015
Background: Black glutinous rice contains remarkable levels of anthocyanins, which possess anti-oxidative properties and thus have health benefits. The accumulation of anthocyanins in grains of thirty black glutinous rice varieties was measured, and the ...

Engineering Biochar‐Derived Functional Materials for High‐Performance Supercapacitors: Design Principles, Mechanisms, and Scalable Strategies

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biochar has emerged as a useful and adaptable source of carbon for supercapacitor electrodes. Its value comes from the way biomass chemistry, thermal conversion, and activation conditions shape the resulting pore network, surface groups, and degree of carbon ordering.

Identification of Variety of Glutinous Rice by RAPD Method

food preservation science, 2003
In this study, we examined identification of glutinous rice breed by RAPD method. Seven polished rice, Hiyokumochi, Hakutyoumochi, Himenomoti, Koganemoti, Miyakoganemoti, Wataboushi, and Chinese rice were used in this study. In addition, these rices were produced in 2000. DNA was extracted and purified by CTAB method.
