Diets, Fruit and Vegetable Intake and Nutritional Status in Tanzania: Scoping Review

Maternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
This scoping review summarizes evidence on diets, fruit and vegetable (F&V) intake, and nutritional status in Tanzania to identify information gaps and to help with the design and targeting of potential interventions to improve F&V intake. While the majority of existing literature on diets and F&V intake was heterogeneous, evidence suggests that among ...

Molecular Chaperone Networks in Plants: Maintaining Proteostasis and Enhancing Stress Resilience for Crop Improvement

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Molecular chaperones play a central role in the plant proteostasis machinery by aiding the folding of nascent proteins, preventing aggregation, and repairing or degrading damaged proteins. These functions are especially essential during abiotic and biotic stress, which can destabilise cellular proteins and disrupt metabolic homoeostasis.
