Genetic parameters and gain from selection in sweet potato genotypes with high betacarotene content
Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2020 Estimating genetic parameters is an essential procedure to define strategies for breeding and selection of higher yielding genotypes. The use of a selection index can assist in decision making by combining the high yield trait with other desirable traits.

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2026.Despite its considerable potential as a functional food ingredient, T. obliquus faces a major limitation in protein recovery due to the rigidity of its cell wall. In the microalgae industry, protein extraction typically involves two main steps: cell disruption and protein extraction.

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 3230-3246, June 2026.Summary Carotenoids and apocarotenoids are widespread specialized metabolites, yet animals, including sponges, lack the ability to synthesize carotenoids de novo and must obtain them from dietary or microbial sources. The roles of carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) in marine animals remain largely unexplored. A CCD from the marine sponge Suberites

Changes in Provitamin A During Paprika Processing
Journal of Food Protection, 1997 The effect of the industrial processing of peppers for paprika on carotenoids with provitamin A activity has been investigated. The processing consists of two principal steps: drying and milling. The milling step appears to be the more destructive, leading to a loss of 42.7 to 55.2% in the total carotenoid content and 65.2 to 81.4% in that of ...
