Lycopene‐rich food biomolecules from tomato processing waste: Green recovery, biopolymer‐based stabilisation, functional food applications and health relevance

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Tomato processing waste, particularly peel and pomace, is a sustainable and low‐cost source of lycopene‐rich food biomolecules. Lycopene, a lipophilic carotenoid with an extended conjugated structure, provides intense red colour, antioxidant potential and functional value to tomato‐derived ingredients.

Intervarietal heterosis in saladette tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.)

Revista Chapingo Serie Horticultura, 2013
In order to evaluate the usefulness of tomato hybrids as potential progenitors for a breeding program, two 5 x 5 diallel designs (Griffing II) were developed using two types of saladette tomato: determinate and indeterminate growth habits. For fruit weight per plant (FW), the determinate growth habit hybrid DG05 showed good specific combining ability ...

Farmers' Soil–Water Management Practices and Perspectives on Soil Salinization in Mirab Abaya District, Gamo Zone, Southern Ethiopia

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil salinization is a critical threat, impacting 20% of the world's irrigated lands and jeopardizing food security. In Ethiopia's Mirab Abaya district of the Gamo Zone, unsustainable irrigation methods exacerbate this issue. This paper examines local farmers' soil–water management systems and their awareness of salinization, aiming to educate
