Seasonal Fluctuations of Plastochromanol‐8 and α‐Tocopherol Amounts in the Leaves of Cecropia Trees
Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plastochromanol‐8 (PC‐8) is a homologue of γ‐tocotrienol with a longer side chain (eight instead of three isoprene units) and therefore also a representative of the tocochromanol (vitamin E) group. PC‐8 has been determined in various plants and seeds, with Cecropia sp. leaves showing unusually high levels.

Integrating machine learning, deep learning, and image analysis for seed species classification
Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.Abstract Premise The growing demand for wildflower seeds in ecological restoration requires reliable species identification, yet current market products often contain heterogeneous species. As seed identification is labor‐intensive and requires advanced botanical knowledge, we evaluated multiple segmentation and classification approaches to determine ...
