Thin‐layer drying kinetics and mathematical modelling of osmotically pretreated vacuum dried green chilli

open access: yesJSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Chilli is highly perishable, often requiring drying to extend shelf life. This study assesses and compares the drying kinetics of osmotically pretreated green chilli under vacuum drying conditions while evaluating suitable mathematical models and calculating effective moisture diffusivity and activation energy. Results Sliced chilli

Meyna grisea (King & Gamble) Robyns and Meyna peltata Robyns (Rubiaceae: Vanguerieae) – a new record of two ethnobotanically significant fruit trees from Manipur, India

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Meyna grisea and M. peltata, two new records from Imphal Valley, Manipur, India, characterised by a capitate stigma with 4–5 divergent, spreading lobes on a globose base, and a prominent peltate stigma, respectively, are described and illustrated here. Photographs, key to the species, along with their coordinates and diagnostic characters in comparison

Factors influencing α-tocopherol synthesis in pepper fruits

open access: yesJournal of Plant Physiology, 2002
Summary Determination of vitamin E in the fruit pericarp of green, yellow and red varieties of Capsicum annuum L. from the local market points to a parallel accumulation in pepper fruits of α-tocopherol with secondary carotenoids and triacylglycerols enriched in unsaturated fatty acids. Highest α-tocopherol concentrations of about 400 nmol per g of

Towards stochastic simulation of crop yield: a case study of fruit set in sweet pepper

open access: yes, 2010
Crop growth simulation models are widely used in research and education, and their use in commercial practice is increasing. Usually these models are deterministic: one set of input values always gives the same output of the model.

Cybianthus anthuriophyllus (Primulaceae), a new record for the flora of Colombia: distribution modeling and conservation assessment

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Cybianthus anthuriophyllus (Primulaceae) was previously known from eastern Ecuador and northern Peru. Here we document the first confirmed occurrences of this species in Colombia and develop a distribution model based on collections from the Andean–Amazonian foothills of Caquetá, Cauca, and Putumayo departments, in order to clarify its conservation ...

Past, present and future of local crop evolution

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).

Pepper fruits - consumer preferences in Serbia

open access: yes, 2023
In Balkan cuisines, as well as in Serbia, pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) has a very diverse use. Knowledge about consumer preferences is of great importance for a breeding process as well as in market-orientated production. According to the authors’ knowledge, there is little data in the literature about consumer preferences in terms of pepper fruit shape,
