Tandem genomic selection with independent culling to improve sorghum hybrid adaptation to the eastern United States

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Objectively selecting genotypes using genomic predictions for multiple traits warrants more empirical research. This study investigated how deployment of genomic prediction within the Clemson sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] breeding program would help to develop hybrids adapted to the eastern United States.

Purification, Structural Characterization, and Anticancer Activity of the Polysaccharide From Sea Red Rice Bran

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Sea red rice bran polysaccharides were separated and purified by DEAE‐52 column chromatography, yielding three components: SRBP‐I, II, and III. Moreover, all three are pentosan‐type polysaccharides predominantly composed of mannose. Among them, SRBP‐I demonstrated the most potent inhibitory effect on HeLa cells. Further investigation indicated that the

Lipofuscin-Like Substance Involved in Pericarp Browning of Postharvest Litchi Fruit During Storage [PDF]

open access: yesThe Open Food Science Journal, 2011
Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) is a subtropical fruit of high commercial value in international trade. However, litchi fruit after harvest can rapidly lose their bright red skin color and turn brown with increasing storage time at ambient temperature. Postharvest browning of litchi fruit is mainly attributed to the degradation of anthocyanins and the ...

Comparative Assessment of Postharvest Treatments for Extending Shelf Life of Two Banana Cultivars in Bangladesh

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, Volume 3, Issue 1, Page 59-68, March 2026.
Effect of different postharvest treatments on shelf life and quality of two banana cultivars (Amritasagar and Mehersagar) in Bangladesh. Among the evaluated treatments, potassium permanganate (KMnO4) in unperforated polythene packaging effectively delayed ripening, increased total sugars and total soluble solids, and significantly extended shelf life ...
