The use of edible insects in human food

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract The world population is expected to reach approximately 10 billion people by 2050, which will significantly increase global food demand and may lead to agricultural shortages and a higher risk of food insecurity. In this context, this review discusses the potential of insects as alternative sources of animal protein, addressing their ...

Classification of Transcription Boundary-Associated RNAs (TBARs) in Animals and Plants [PDF]

Frontiers in Genetics, 2018
There is increasing evidence suggesting the contribution of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) to the phenotypic and physiological complexity of organisms. A novel ncRNA species has been identified near the transcription boundaries of protein-coding genes in eukaryotes, bacteria, and archaea.

Selenium biofortification of pea (Pisum sativum L.) microgreens through seed priming: Effects on agronomic performance and nutritional quality

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Selenium (Se) deficiency is a widespread nutritional problem. Agronomic biofortification of microgreens through seed nutripriming is a promising approach to enhance Se intake. Microgreens, comprising nutrient‐dense foods that can be produced year‐round, are ideal targets for biofortification and may help alleviate malnutrition. This
