ABSTRACT Yeasts belonging to the genus Rhodotorula are capable of synthesizing carotenoids, such as β‐carotene, γ‐carotene, torulene, torularodine, and astaxanthin. These carotenoids have been shown to offer health benefits to humans, such as immune system strengthening and a reduced risk of chronic degenerative diseases.

Effect of NaOH Steam on Swelling and Cleaning of Food Soil Layers
The effects of steam and NaOH steam, in comparison with water and sodium hydroxide, on the swelling behavior and removal forces of three food‐based soils were investigated. Comparative cleaning experiments were performed using these food soils after pre‐swelling with NaOH steam, steam, NaOH, or water.

Assessing the Genotypic Differences for Seed Set and Seed Abortion in Tomato Genotypes [PDF]
Tomato (_Lycopersicon esculentum_ Mill.) is one of the most popular fruit vegetable around the world. Seed abortion where in only a small proportion of ovules in an ovary develops into matured seeds, is a wide spread phenomenon in multi-ovulated species.

A Novel Approach to Tomato Harvesting Using a Hybrid Gripper with Semantic Segmentation and Keypoint Detection [PDF]
Current agriculture and farming industries are able to reap advancements in robotics and automation technology to harvest fruits and vegetables using robots with adaptive grasping forces based on the compliance or softness of the fruit or vegetable. A successful operation depends on using a gripper that can adapt to the mechanical properties of the ...

ABSTRACT Cells have an intrinsic ability to rapidly respond to environmental change to regulate cell cycle progression and membrane organisation, thereby affecting cell growth and division. The actin cytoskeleton is a highly dynamic complex of proteins that can rapidly reorganise to change the growth pattern of a cell.

Screening of different tomato varieties in saline areas of Bangladesh
A field study was conducted to screen out a number of Bangladeshi Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) varieties for salinity tolerance. Three levels of salinity were 2.0-4.0 dS m-1, 4.1-8.0 dS m-1 and 8.1-12.0 dS m-1. Significant varietal and or salinity

ABSTRACT Of the three types of cytoskeleton known in animals—actin, microtubules, and intermediate filaments—only actin and microtubules exist in plants. Both play important roles in cellular shaping, organelle movement, organization of the endomembrane system, and cell signaling.

Studies were carried out on the effect of pollination on fruit set, normal fruit growth, earliness of yield and size of fruit. A high positive correlation was found between the number of seeds per fruit and the fruit weight. When flowers were pollinated with a mixture of inert powder and pollen, fruits were larger and earlier as the proportion of ...
