A targeted management of the nutrient solution in a soilless tomato crop according to plant needs [PDF]

, 2016
The adoption of closed soilless systems is useful in minimizing the environmental impact of the greenhouse crops. Instead, a significant problem in closed soilless systems is represented by the accumulation of ions in the recycled nutrient solution (NS),

OsGSK2‐OsTCP19 Module Integrates Nitrogen and Brassinosteroid Signaling to Regulate Nitrogen Utilization and Root Growth in Rice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
OsGSK2‐OsTCP19 module regulating nitrate response and lateral root (LR) development. Low‐nitrate condition results in reduced BR response, accumulation of OsGSK2 and phosphorylated OsTCP19, which suppresses the expression of nitrate‐responsive genes and LR‐development genes and impairs rice growth.

Misreporting of energy and micronutrient intake estimated by food records and 24 hour recalls, control and adjustment methods in practice [PDF]

, 2009
In order to assess nutritional adequacy, valid estimates of nutrient intake are required. One of the main errors in dietary assessment is misreporting. The objective was to review the extent, nature and determinants of misreporting in dietary assessment,

An ultra‐processed food‐based cafeteria diet induces obesity, metabolic dysfunction, and tissue‐specific gene dysregulation in C57BL/6 mice

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This schematic figure illustrates the experimental design and key findings of the study. Forty male C57BL/6 mice were assigned to either a standard diet control group or a cafeteria diet (CAFD) group for 16 weeks. CAFD induces obesity, insulin resistance (HOMA‐IR), hepatic steatosis, and dysregulation of a number of genes in visceral and subcutaneous ...

Grazing on Marine Viruses and Its Biogeochemical Implications

mBio, 2023
Viruses are the most abundant biological entities in the ocean and show great diversity in terms of size, host specificity, and infection cycle. Lytic viruses induce host cell lysis to release their progeny and thereby redirect nutrients from higher to ...

The influence of macronutrients on cognitive performance : effects across age and task difficulty : thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Psychology at Massey University [PDF]

, 2002
The effects of pure glucose, protein, and fat ingestion on tasks of paragraph recall, word recall, and mental arithmetic were examined. These effects were also investigated with regard to the age of the participant and the task difficulty level.

Exploring the potential of ucuúba (Virola surinamensis) seed fat

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Ucuúba (Virola surinamensis) fat is an important income source for Amazonian communities. Local businesses typically process whole seeds for fat extraction; however, seed structural integrity may influence extraction efficiency and fat quality.

Comparison of Dietary Habits of Children with Epilepsy to Healthy Children [PDF]

International Journal of Nutrition Sciences
Background: Researches on the dietary adequacy of children with epilepsy in comparison to healthy counterparts are limited. This study aimed to assess the food consumption and nutrient intake patterns of children with epilepsy in comparison to healthy ...

Box-Cox symmetric distributions and applications to nutritional data [PDF]

, 2017
We introduce the Box-Cox symmetric class of distributions, which is useful for modeling positively skewed, possibly heavy-tailed, data. The new class of distributions includes the Box-Cox t, Box-Cox Cole-Gree, Box-Cox power exponential distributions, and

Beyond CO2: Incorporating Bicarbonate, Dynamic Carbon Speciation, and Stoichiometric Plasticity Into Algal Growth Models

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The design of biological carbon capture systems to uptake carbon dioxide by photoautotrophic cultivation of algae has been proposed to mitigate atmospheric carbon emissions. Multiple models to predict algal growth as a function of nutrients have been proposed, but few have delved into the complex dynamic reactions of algal growth as influenced
