Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Dietary essential oils modulate post‐mortem oxidative damage in trout fillets exposed to slaughter stress during frozen storage

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Slaughter is a critical phase in aquaculture that can severely compromise both animal welfare and product quality. Stress responses triggered during this stage may accelerate post‐mortem biochemical degradation and promote oxidative damage in fish fillets. Essential oils, known for their antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory properties,

Species identity and spatial scale drive context‑dependent tree diversity effects in a Finnish forest experiment

Oikos, EarlyView.
Tree species diversity is known to affect tree growth and leaf traits, which in turn can influence various ecosystem processes. However, the reported direction of these tree diversity effects is inconsistent, indicating that their outcomes depend strongly on ecological context.
