Multimodal Transformer Fusion of PTR‐ToF‐MS Volatiles and Targeted Non‐Volatile Metabolites Enables Data‐Driven Grading of Baimudan White Tea

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 18, 30 September 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Commercial grading of Baimudan white tea still relies largely on sensory evaluation and would benefit from a rapid, objective analytical approach. This study investigated whether PTR‐ToF‐MS volatile fingerprints combined with targeted non‐volatile metabolite measurements could support data‐driven grading of four official Baimudan ...

Comparison of Different Fruit Shapes of Lanxangia tsaoko: Differences and Relevance of Phenotypes, Antioxidant Activities, and Physicochemical Information

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
This study selected three fruit types of LT, including PCS, ES, and LFS. We examined the phenotypes and physicochemical components, volatile substances, non‐volatile substances, and FT‐NIRS characteristics of the three fruit types. Based on FT‐NIRS, an SVM model was established for the rapid identification of LT fruit types.

Host phenology‐driven infestation patterns of the carob moth (Ectomyelois ceratoniae) in Mediterranean walnut orchards: insights from comparison with codling moth (Cydia pomonella)

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 6877-6889, July 2026.
In Mediterranean walnut orchards, Ectomyelois ceratoniae replaces Cydia pomonella as the primary pest. Capture peaks between packing tissue brown (PTB) stage and husk dehiscence define a critical window for monitoring and early harvest to prevent kernel infestation.
