Dead Matter, Living Machines: Repurposing Crustaceans' Abdomen Exoskeleton for Bio‐Hybrid Robots

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Crustacean exoskeletons, repurposed from food waste, are engineered into sustainable bending actuators combining biotic structure with synthetic control. The augmented exoskeletons achieve rapid and robust motion with lightweight body and can be used as part of robotic manipulators, grippers and swimmers.

Postharvest UV-C treatment combined with 1-methylcyclopropene 1 (1-MCP), followed by storage in continuous low level ethylene atmosphere improves the quality of tomatoes [PDF]

, 2017
Mature green tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum L. cv Neang Pich) were exposed to 13.6 kJ m−2 UV-C or 0.5 μL L−1 1-MCP or combination of 13.6 kJ m−2 UV-C and 0.5 μL L−1 1-MCP, with appropriate untreated controls.

Pan2‐Pan3 Complex‐Mediated Deadenylation Enforces mRNA Quality Control for Infection of the Rice Blast Fungus

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Discovery that deadenylation, rather than transcription, acts as the rate‐limiting step for developmental timing in a plant pathogen. Evidence that P‐body integrity and mRNA decay are mechanistically coupled to rapid cellular differentiation under environmental stress. Identification of Pan2‐Pan3 as a pathogen‐specific “meta‐virulence factor” absent in

The Impact of Climate Change on Tomato Water Footprint under Irrigation with Saline Water in a Kairouan Irrigated Area (Tunisia Center)

Horticulturae
The concept of the water footprint (WF) has not adequately explored the combined effects of climate change and salinity. For this aim, the effects of future climate conditions on tomato WF irrigated with moderately saline water (EC = 2.9 dS m−1) were ...

Determination of the Influence of Variety and Level of Maturity on the Content and Development of Carotenoids in Tomatoes

Czech Journal of Food Sciences, 2009
The influence of variety and the level of maturity on the content and composition of carotenoids in tomatoes were monitored in a field experiment in the year 2007. A total of 11 varieties were submitted to this experiment - Albertovské žluté, Bejbino F1,

Thermal diffusivity of periderm from tomatoes of different maturity stages as determined by the concept of the frequency-domain open photoacoustic cell [PDF]

, 2011
The frequency-domain open photoacoustic cell (OPC) approach was used to determine room temperature thermal diffusivity of skins (pericarps) from the raw tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculetum Mill.) characterized by the three different stages of ripeness (from
