The Crop Feeding Behavior of Rhesus Macaques in a Forest‐Farm Mosaic in Central Nepal: Implications for Human–Wildlife Coexistence

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 3, March 2026.
Rhesus macaques in Nepal fed on crops for a longer duration and caused more crop damage when the foraging party was larger. Farmer interventions failed to reduce the duration of crop feeding and the amount of crop damage. ABSTRACT Human‐driven habitat change is forcing nonhuman primates to exploit anthropogenic landscapes, resulting in primate crop ...

Chemistry Composition and Bioaccessibility Study of Phenolic Compounds and Carotenoids of New Brazilian Biofortified Sweet Potato “CIP BRS Nuti”

Food Chemistry International, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 23-33, March 2026.
Phenolic compounds of sweet potato CIP BRS Nuti were evaluated for the first time. Catechin, epicatechin, and procyanidin B1 exhibited high bioaccessibility. ABSTRACT Sweet potatoes biofortified in carotenoids have been an alternative to combat malnutrition in vulnerable populations. This work is the first comprehensive study of the bioactive potential

Genome‐Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of Pathogenesis‐Related Protein 1 in Sweet Potato and Its Two Relatives

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Pathogenesis‐related Protein 1 (PR1) is a core component of plant innate immunity. We identified 33, 50, and 36 PR1 genes in Ipomoea batatas, Ipomoea trifida, and Ipomoea triloba. Phylogenetic analysis clustered them into 5 groups. Two diploid wild species show high flower/flower‐buds expression, and most sweet potato PR1s are downregulated under ...

Enhancing polyphenol synthesis and antioxidant activity in Camellia sinensis using shikimic and salicylic acids

JSFA reports, Volume 6, Issue 3, Page 73-87, March 2026.
Abstract Background Camellia sinensis, widely consumed as tea, is the second most popular beverage globally and is valued for its health benefits. However, environmental stressors pose a significant challenge to the tea industry. This study investigates the potential of shikimic acid (ShA) and its derivative, salicylic acid (SA), as inducers to enhance

RNA-Seq and iTRAQ reveal multiple pathways involved in storage root formation and development in sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.)

BMC Plant Biology, 2019
Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is the sixth most important food crop in the world. The formation and development of storage roots in sweet potato is a highly complicated and genetically programmed process. However, the underlying mechanisms of storage

Neuroprotective Effect of Sweet Potato Petiole and Leaf Dry‐Powder in a Gerbil Model of Transient Cerebral Ischaemia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 2, March 2026.
Continuous intake of sweet potato petiole and leaf, rich in polyphenols, demonstrated the neuroprotective effects in a gerbil model of transient cerebral ischaemia. Pre‐ischaemic feeding of a diet containing sweet potato petiole and leaf tended to be more effective than post‐ischaemic feeding.
