Mapping and Geospatial Analysis of Ancient Terrace Agricultural Systems in Lucanas Province, Peruvian Andes, Based on Satellite Imagery, High‐Resolution DSMs, and Field Surveys

open access: yesGeoarchaeology, Volume 40, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a unique set of maps and geospatial data covering 16 ancient terrace agricultural systems in the upper part of the Río Grande de Nasca drainage. These systems are located on the western Andean flank (1200 and 3800 m asl), in the districts of Llauta, Laramate, and Ocaña in Lucanas province, Ayacucho region, southern Peru (14.

Yield and seed chemical composition of Lupinus mutabilis in Portugal

open access: yesRevista de Ciências Agrárias, 2016
Lupinus mutabilis Sweet (tarwi), being cultivated for thousands of years in the Andean region, is regarded as a potential crop for Europe, especially because of its high protein and oil content. The objective of this study was to revise the productivity and seed composition analyses of several tarwi accessions conducted over several years, in a ...

Mass‐flowering lupin has positive, but limited, effect on wild bee conservation in agricultural landscapes

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 492-501, March 2025.
Our results indicate that lupin can potentially support the few common, abundant bee species that preferentially visit it. However, to effectively support the entire bee community, conservation management should focus on improving the quality of existing semi‐natural habitats by increasing floral availability and diversity, possibly of Fabaceae floral ...

The aerial epidermis is a major site of quinolizidine alkaloid biosynthesis in narrow‐leafed lupin

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 245, Issue 5, Page 2052-2068, March 2025.
Summary Lupins are promising protein crops that accumulate toxic quinolizidine alkaloids (QAs) in the seeds, complicating their end‐use. QAs are synthesized in green organs (leaves, stems, and pods) and a subset of them is transported to the seeds during fruit development.

Modelling of the aqueous debittering process of Lupinus mutabilis Sweet

open access: yesLWT - Food Science and Technology, 2013
Abstract We investigated the process of lupin debittering by soaking, cooking and washing in water using a newly designed hydroagitator. The effect on alkaloids content, solids in the product, final weight, processing time and water and energy consumption were expressed in a mathematical model for optimization purposes.

Protozoan and Helminth Contamination in Ecuadorian Agricultural Products: Dominance of Blastocystis sp.

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Foodborne diseases, particularly those caused by parasitic infections, pose significant public health challenges globally, particularly affecting vulnerable populations such as children. In this study, we investigated the parasitic contamination in 773 samples of fruits, vegetables, and leafy greens from Ecuador’s Chimborazo Province. Utilizing a cross‐

Comparative Genomics Reveals Sources of Genetic Variability in the Asexual Fungal Plant Pathogen Colletotrichum lupini

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 25, Issue 12, December 2024.
Comparative genomics of the lupin pathogen Colletotrichum lupini reveals low SNP diversity but highlights a dynamic accessory genome, including a variable accessory chromosome and diverse transposable element landscape. ABSTRACT Fungal plant pathogens cause major crop losses worldwide, with many featuring compartmentalised genomes that include both ...
