Positive Influences of Ohmicsonication on Phytochemical Profile and Storage Stability of Not-from-Concentrate Mango Juice [PDF]
Processing technique and storage conditions are the main factors that affect the phytochemical profile of Not-from-Concentrate (NFC) juice, which could decrease the nutritional and bioactive properties of the corresponding juice.

Impact of ohmicsonication treatment on pectinmethylesterase in not-from-concentrate orange juice [PDF]
The present study investigates the application of ohmicsonication (OS) as a new hurdle technology for pasteurization of Not-from-concentrate orange juice (NFCOJ). OS process parameters to inactivate pectinmethylesterase (PME) activity in NFCOJ were optimized using response surface methodology.

A methyl esterase from Bifidobacterium longum subsp. longum reshapes the prebiotic properties of apple pectin by triggering differential modulatory capacity in faecal cultures. [PDF]
The activity of a purified pectin methylesterase, BpeM, from Bifidobacterium longum subsp. longum, was experimentally validated through demetylation of highly methoyxylated apple pectin. The mathematical modelling of its activity enabled to tightly control the reaction conditions to achieve predefined final degrees of methyl‐esterification (DM) in the ...

Combining extracellular matrix proteome and phosphoproteome of chickpea and meta-analysis reveal novel proteoforms and evolutionary significance of clade-specific wall-associated events in plant. [PDF]
Abstract Extracellular matrix (ECM) plays central roles in cell architecture, innate defense and cell wall integrity (CWI) signaling. During transition to multicellularity, modular domain structures of ECM proteins and proteoforms have evolved due to continuous adaptation across taxonomic clades under different ecological niche.

Abstract Postharvest handling is an important approach to reduce loss and ensure the global supply of fresh fruits and vegetables (FVs). Recently, nanomaterials are increasingly recognized for their great potentials in extending shelf life and maintaining the quality of postharvest FVs owing to their unique properties and outstanding functions with ...

Banana is a very perishable climacteric fruit with consequence of large postharvest losses. The objective of the present study was to improve the postharvest shelf life of bananas. Fruits from the Melong locality were treated with coating solutions formulated with a mixture of Aloe vera, starch, and Arabic gum at different concentrations.

Activity and Process Stability of Purified Green Pepper (Capsicum annuum) Pectin Methylesterase [PDF]
Pectin methylesterase (PME) from green bell peppers (Capsicum annuum) was extracted and purified by affinity chromatography on a CNBr-Sepharose-PMEI column. A single protein peak with pectin methylesterase activity was observed.

ZEITLUPE facilitates the rhythmic movements of Nicotiana attenuata flowers
SUMMARY Circadian organ movements are ubiquitous in plants. These rhythmic outputs are thought to be regulated by the circadian clock and auxin signalling, but the underlying mechanisms have not been clarified. Flowers of Nicotiana attenuata change their orientation during the daytime through a 140° arc to balance the need for pollinators and the ...

Roles of RIN and ethylene in tomato fruit ripening and ripening‐associated traits
Summary RIPENING INHIBITOR (RIN)‐deficient fruits generated by CRISPR/Cas9 initiated partial ripening at a similar time to wild‐type (WT) fruits but only 10% WT concentrations of carotenoids and ethylene (ET) were synthesized. RIN‐deficient fruit never ripened completely, even when supplied with exogenous ET.
