Productivity of Tifton 85 grass irrigated and overseeded with winter forages

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Animal Sciences, 2015
Intercropping with cool season species has been used as an alternative to increase productivity off-season (fall/winter) of irrigated pastures. This study was conducted from May to October 2009 in Icaraíma, Paraná State, to evaluate the productivity and ...

Predictive value of seizure onset for gross motor dysfunction in individuals with pathogenic GABRB2 and GABRB3 variants

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Pathogenic variants in γ‐aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptor genes have been associated with a wide spectrum of neurological disorders. We aimed to delineate the clinical trajectories associated with gain‐of‐function (GoF) and loss‐of‐function (LoF) variants in GABRB2 and GABRB3, and to develop a risk‐prediction model for gross

Bioactive oat β-glucan reduces LDL cholesterol in Caucasians and non-Caucasians

open access: yesNutrition Journal, 2011
Background There is increasing global acceptance that viscous soluble fibers lower serum LDL cholesterol (LDL-C), but most evidence for this comes from studies in Caucasians.

Current Advancements of Probiotic Foods and Their Role in Sustainable Food Security

open access: yesFood Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Probiotic foods have evolved from traditional fermented products to scientifically validated functional foods, defined by the FAO and WHO as live microorganism that confer a health benefit on the host when administered in adequate amounts, with effects being strain, does and end point specific.

Understanding protein–flavor interactions: Factors, characterization techniques, and the effect of processing

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract The perception of flavor in a food system depends on its release from the protein matrix. Apart from hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interactions and van der Waal's forces, the formation of covalent adducts between the flavor and protein highly impacts the release of flavor from the protein matrix.

Harnessing deep learning to quantify microstructural complexity in confocal images of plant protein gels

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding plant protein gel microstructure is key to designing functional food systems. This study introduces a deep learning framework using a U‐Net model with a ResNet34 encoder to segment and quantify confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) images of plant protein gels.

Organic Cereal Varieties: The Results of four years of Trials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Modern breeding has focussed on producing plants that perform well in a monoculture; they are designed to interfere minimally with their neighbours under high fertility conditions, where all ameliorable factors are controlled.

Assessment of genetic variability in oat (Avena sativa L.) germplasm using agro-morphological traits and microsatellite markersParameshwaran Mathavaraj1, Prasanta Kumar Goswami1, Seuji Bora Neog2 and Akhil Ranjan Baruah3

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Plant Breeding
This study assessed genetic variability among oat genotypes for twelve traits, including yield. Significant differences were found across all traits, with high heritability and genetic advance for the number of effective tillers, 1000-seed weight, and ...
