Molecular Engineering Mediated Interfacial Assembly as an Artificial Extracellular Matrix Remolds Bacteria With Enhanced Abiotic Resilience

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A biomimetic artificial extracellular matrix is assembled directly on Pseudomonas fluorescens by co‐assembling amyloid‐like lysozyme and alginate at the cell surface. This conformal nanocoating acts as both a hydration buffer and a physiological priming layer, markedly enhancing desiccation tolerance, seed adhesion, storage stability, and biocontrol ...

Studies on pre and post-harvest treatments for extending shelf life in onion – A review

Agricultural Reviews, 2013
In India, presently about 35 to 40 per cent of the onion is estimated to be lost as postharvest losses during various operations including handling and storage. Pre-harvest sprays of growth regulators viz., cycocel, ethylene compounds and fungicides play a crucial role in enhancement of shelf life in onion.
