Horticultural postharvest loss’ and its socio-economic and environmental impacts

Journal of Environmental Management
Food losses and waste (FLW) have multidimensional environmental, social, and economic impacts, and avoidance efforts may yield better environmental gains than recovery. Horticulture has the highest FLW (≈50% of production loss), representing 38% of total global FLW.

The C2H2‐GGAT Regulatory Module Fine‐Tunes Glutamate Homeostasis to Improve Fruit Flavour and Enhance Disease Resistance in Peach

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Free amino acids (FAAs) play a fundamental role in determining fruit quality and stress adaptation, yet their genetic regulation remains poorly understood. Through an integrated approach combining metabolomic and sensory analyses of 120 peach (Prunus persica) hybrids, we identified glutamate as a key metabolite linking FAA content to umami ...

CpERF‐WRI1 Manipulates Ethylene Sensing by Regulating the Expression of CpERS1 and Fruit Ripening in Papaya

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ethylene plays a crucial role in fruit ripening and is perceived by specialised receptor proteins embedded in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. As an ethylene antagonist, 1‐methylcyclopropene (1‐MCP) binds to these receptors and delays papaya ripening, but improper use can cause ripening disorders.

Peanut combine residue distribution and nutrient stratification across the harvest swath

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) production contributes substantial organic matter and nutrients to subsequent rotations, but residue distribution by harvest equipment is often uneven. This study quantified peanut chaff distribution across 6‐row combines at multiple sites in the Missouri Delta during 2023 and 2024.

Decision‐making factors for variable rate application of seed and fertilizer in precision agriculture systems: A review

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Input management practices within precision agriculture systems have enabled grain and oilseed producers to apply agricultural inputs variably, facilitating resource, yield, and profit optimization. Despite significant progress in variable rate technologies, research comparing different methodologies and comprehensive guidelines to assist ...
