Chemical Constituents from the Stems of Manihot esculenta [PDF]
Two new compounds, maniesculentins A (1) and B (6), together with four known ones were isolated from the stems of Manihot esculenta Crantz. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic methods including NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry.

The targeted metabolomic profile of laticifers in rubber tree
Targeted metabolomic profiling of rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) laticifers identified metabolites that were reprogramming by domestication, revealed active isoprenoid metabolism in the laticifers, and discovered loci with potential biosynthetic applications, supporting the potential of developing laticifers as bioreactors for production of valuable ...

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz)
Cassava is a key food security staple and a competitive feedstock for multiple industrial processes and end uses. Farmers grow hybrids which are reproduced vegetatively. Several programs have used the same breeding scheme for the last 40 years. Significant progress has been made, particularly with the first improved varieties released in the 1980s and ...

ABSTRACT In West Africa, trees and shrubs are important for feeding ruminant livestock during the dry season. This study aimed to determine the in vitro digestibility of organic matter from eight woody species using a gas test with and without the addition of polyethylene glycol (PEG), and evaluate their preference by sheep using a cafeteria test ...

Abstract BACKGROUND The use of starter cultures is essential for producing fermented foods with desirable standardized characteristics and for preventing pathogens. Pediococcus acidilactici, isolated from cocoa fermentation, was used in the production of tucupi, a widely appreciated sauce made from the juice of cassava root (manipueira) in the ...
