Comparative Assessment of Postharvest Treatments for Extending Shelf Life of Two Banana Cultivars in Bangladesh

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Effect of different postharvest treatments on shelf life and quality of two banana cultivars (Amritasagar and Mehersagar) in Bangladesh. Among the evaluated treatments, potassium permanganate (KMnO4) in unperforated polythene packaging effectively delayed ripening, increased total sugars and total soluble solids, and significantly extended shelf life ...

Guard-Cell Hexokinase Increases Water-Use Efficiency Under Normal and Drought Conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Water is a limiting resource for many land plants. Most of the water taken up by plants is lost to the atmosphere through the stomata, which are adjustable pores on the leaf surface that allow for gas exchange between the plant and the atmosphere ...

Direct Numerical Simulation of Magnetohydrodynamic Slip‐Flow Past a Stretching Surface Using Physics‐Informed Neural Network

open access: yesHeat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Traditional numerical methods, such as finite difference methods (FDM), finite element methods (FEM), and spectral methods, often face meshing challenges and high computational cost for solving nonlinear coupled differential equations. Machine learning techniques, specifically Physics‐informed machine learning, address these obstacles by ...
