Active chitosan coating to inhibit decay and maintain mango postharvest quality

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Microbial decay limits the storage, quality and trade of mangoes (Mangifera indica). We developed an active chitosan coating containing zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO‐NPs) and Eucalyptus radiata essential oil (EEO) to inhibit decay and preserve postharvest quality of mango. Chitosan (cationic) can disrupt microbial membranes; ZnO‐NPs

Varying vulnerabilities: Seagrass species under threat from prolonged ocean warming

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the response of various seagrass species to prolonged elevated water temperatures is crucial for effective management and seagrass species restoration amid increasing climate change‐induced ocean warming and marine heat waves. This is especially important in intertidal seagrass meadows, where heat can penetrate substrate depths ...

Climate warming disrupts zooplankton phenology and overwintering strategies

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Zooplankton are crucial for food webs and biogeochemical cycles. However, warming associated with climate change may alter their seasonal timing and reproductive strategies. This study investigated how long‐term warming impacted zooplankton (mainly copepods) phenology and overwintering strategies by comparing a Baltic Sea bay, heated by warm ...

Light and temperature as triggers for surface filamentous green algal blooms in shallow freshwater systems

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Blooms of filamentous green algae (FGA) form dense mats at the surface of shallow freshwaters and have multiple negative impacts on aquatic ecosystem functions, services, and aesthetics. Although nutrient enrichment in freshwaters is a primary driver of excessive FGA growth, much less is known about other abiotic factors controlling bloom ...
