Reducing the Sinapine Levels of Camelina sativa Seeds Through Targeted Genome Editing of REF1
ABSTRACT Sinapine (O‐sinapoyl choline) is the major phenolic metabolite typically found in the oil‐rich seeds of Brassicaceae such as Camelina sativa and Brassica napus. It imparts a bitter taste to the seeds as a defence mechanism against herbivores, but it also renders them less palatable to livestock.

From farm to pharma, this review details the engineering of quality in medicinal plants through a science‐driven approach: it first elucidates how genetic and environmental factors inscribe the plant's phytochemical and phytopharmacological profile before harvest, and then dissects the postharvest techniques and technologies—chemical and thermal pre ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum) is of considerable socio‐economic importance and is among the most widely cultivated vegetables worldwide, occupying more than 20 000 km2. Light‐emitting diodes (LEDs), applied in continuous or pulsed modes, can increase yield and improve the phytochemical composition in indoor production systems ...

Agronomic Biofertilizer Potential of a Cyanobacterium‐Enriched Culture
ABSTRACT Microalgae‐ and cyanobacteria‐based biofertilizers are valuable resources for sustainable agricultural practices. Though abundant in soils, their biotechnological potential remains underexplored, with only a few species acknowledged for agricultural applications.

Combining hydro-generation and wind energy biddings and operation on electricity spot markets [PDF]
Wind generation is growing rapidly in all the world, especially in Europe. The power produced by this kind of generation is difficult to predict and the predictions are not very accurate. In most systems these imbalances are costly.

Chemical Modification and Kinetic Studies on Glucarate Hydro‐Lyase from a Species of Pseudomonas A [PDF]
Glucarate hydro‐lyase, obtained from cells of Pseudomonas A grown on glucarate as the sole source of carbon, was purified 40‐fold in 70% yield. The effects of a variety of chemical modifiers and competitive inhibitors on the enzyme activity were studied.

Determination of Ultratrace Zinc by Enzymatic Activity of Carbonic Anhydrase. II. Use of Carbonate Hydro-lyase Activity [PDF]
Abstract A method for the determination of trace zinc has been investigated using hydro-lyase activity of carbonic anhydrase. It was proved theoretically and experimentally that the activation rate of the apo-carbonic anhydrase with zinc is proportional to the amount of zinc present in the solution.

Physiological roles of lignins – tuning cell wall hygroscopy and biomechanics
Summary Lignins constitute the second most abundant carbon‐storing biopolymers in the biosphere. These phenolic polymers accumulate in different concentrations, compositions, and localisations within and between cell wall layers and cell types. Lignins were acquired during plant terrestrialisation 450 million years ago, and the diversification of their
