Chemosensitivity in the Sea Urchin Paracentrotus lividus (Echinodermata: Echinoidea) to Food-Related Compounds: An Innovative Behavioral Bioassay

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Like other animals, echinoderms rely on chemical senses to detect and localize food resources. Here, we evaluate the chemical sensitivity of the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus to a number of stimuli possibly related to food, such as a few sugars ...

Effects of selenium application on biochemical characteristics and biofortification level of kohlrabi (Brassica oleracea L. var. gongylodes) produce

Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2021
Background: Biofortification of vegetables with selenium (Se) greatly depends on species tolerance to Se supply. Due to the scant information regarding kohlrabi Se biofortification, the aim of the present work was the evaluation of foliar sodium selenate

Social aspects of dietary sugars

, 2014
Sugars may create feeling, but people create meaning. As Sidney Mintz [1] demonstrated in his landmark monograph, Sweetness and Power, the taste and desire for sugars and sweetness is not wholly biological or innate.
