Botanical treatment enhances biochemical responses in enset (Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman) clones

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bacterial wilt of enset (Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman) is a severe disease caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. musacearum, resulting in complete crop failure and considerable damage. This study assessed the biochemical responses of two enset clones (one resistant and one susceptible) when inoculated with the pathogen and ...

Influence of different drying techniques on the quality and physicochemical properties of Ghana‐sourced turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) samples

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study evaluated the influence of four drying techniques—freeze drying (FZD), microwave drying (MCD), oven drying (OVD), and sun drying (SUD)—on the bioactive, nutritional, and physical properties of turmeric. Using standard analytical procedures, the samples were examined for antioxidant activity (DPPH and ABTS assays), total ...

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...
