Management of vegetable crop residues for reducing nitrate leaching losses in intensive vegetable rotations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Crop residues of field vegetables are often characterized by large amounts of biomass with a high N-content. Despite low soil temperatures during autumn, high rates of N mineralization and nitrification still occur causing important N-losses through ...

Could Edible Photonic Structures Be an Alternative to Traditional Food Coloring?

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
What if color in food came from photonic structures? This perspective introduces structural color as a potential next‐generation solution to replace conventional colorants in foods. It discusses edible photonic materials, their unique benefits, and the technological, safety, and consumer acceptance challenges that must be addressed to bring this ...

High-Resolution and Non-destructive Evaluation of the Spatial Distribution of Nitrate and Its Dynamics in Spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) Leaves by Near-Infrared Hyperspectral Imaging

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Nitrate is an important component of the nitrogen cycle and is therefore present in all plants. However, excessive nitrogen fertilization results in a high nitrate content in vegetables, which is unhealthy for humans.

Modelling of Thin-Layer Drying of Osmo-Pretreated Red Bell Pepper

open access: yesActa Technologica Agriculturae, 2021
The paper observes a thin-layer drying behaviour of red bell pepper. The red bell pepper (192 samples) was pretreated in osmotic solution of salt of concentrations 5–20% (w/w) at osmotic solution temperatures (30–60 °C) and osmotic process durations (30 ...

BioCNTs Mediated Delivery of Systemically Mobile Small RNAs via Leaf Spray to Control Both Tomato DNA and RNA Viruses

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A carbon nanotube‐based biopesticide system (BioCNTs) enables efficient delivery and systemic movement of RNAi molecules to control major tomato viruses. By integrating shRNA and tRNA‐like structures (TLS) with BioCNTs, this green and scalable approach achieves long‐term silencing and high antiviral efficacy through simple foliar spraying.
