The Wonders of Vanilla: Celebrating the 150th Anniversary of Synthetic Vanillin
The year 2024 marked the 150th anniversary of the first commercial production of vanillin, one of the world's most cherished flavor ingredients. This review traces vanilla's history from Mesoamerica to modern production methods, examines its composition, the discovery of vanillin and Haarmann's early synthesis compared to modern methods, and highlights

Textured vegetable proteins were produced by thermoplastic extrusion using soy protein concentrate, vital wheat gluten, and defatted baru flour, a protein‐ and fiber‐rich by‐product from the Brazilian Cerrado. The resulting plant‐based burgers were evaluated for nutritional composition, technological properties, microbiological quality, and sensory ...

Using task‐based fMRI with online subjective disgust ratings and trait‐level data from a comparably large study, we found a differential pattern of neural associations between two disgust traits: disgust propensity, not disgust sensitivity, modulated neurofunctional activity toward disgust elicitors and mediated the link between subjective disgust ...

A new mass and energy balance for intercepted snow more accurately represented observations of subcanopy snow water equivalent and canopy intercepted snow load compared to an existing approach. The new CanSnow model also revealed how intercepted snowfall is partitioned between throughfall, sublimation, drip and unloading to the forest floor at two ...

A Roadmap for Breeding Sweet Tomatoes
This graphical abstract outlines four breeding strategies for enhancing sugar content and sweetness in tomato fruits: (1) Identification of key genes and functional variant loci regulating fruit sugar accumulation through systematic germplasm collection, genome‐wide association studies (GWAS), map‐based cloning, and reverse genetics approaches.

Insects use sensilla to detect chemical and physical stimuli, mediating behaviours such as mate finding, foraging and mechanosensory responses. The distribution and density of sensilla can be examined using scanning electron microscopy. Investigating these structures can help elucidate rarely observed behaviours (e.g. mate finding and foraging).
