Functional Bread From Bambara Groundnut and Orange Peel Attenuates Hyperglycemia and Oxidative Stress in a High‐Fat Diet/Streptozotocin‐Induced Type 2 Diabetes Rat Model

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
This study evaluated Bambara groundnut–wheat composite bread fortified with orange peel in diabetic rats. Diets significantly lowered blood glucose, inhibited α‐glucosidase and α‐amylase, and boosted antioxidant enzymes compared to controls. Results emphasize BG‐based functional foods' potential to help manage type 2 diabetes through regulation of ...

The cytosolic isoform of triosephosphate isomerase, ZmTPI4, is required for kernel development and starch synthesis in maize (Zea mays L.)

Crop Journal
Triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) is an enzyme that functions in plant energy production, accumulation, and conversion. To understand its function in maize, we characterized a maize TPI mutant, zmtpi4.

Suppressing maize stalk rot through promoted rhizosphere microbial recruitment in cultivar mixtures

Frontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionCrop diversification is a critical strategy for improving resource use efficiency and suppressing disease. Mixing cultivars from the same crop is one approach to diversifying planting patterns. However, it remains unknown how mixing cultivars

Long-term experiments as a platform for monitoring bread wheat quality [PDF]

, 2008
Both winter wheat and spring wheat have the potential for producing grain of bread wheat quality under North European conditions. The two crops may due to their different growth length respond differently to previous use of green manure and to the soil ...

Understanding protein–flavor interactions: Factors, characterization techniques, and the effect of processing

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract The perception of flavor in a food system depends on its release from the protein matrix. Apart from hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interactions and van der Waal's forces, the formation of covalent adducts between the flavor and protein highly impacts the release of flavor from the protein matrix.

Cold plasma‐induced modifications in the physico‐functional properties of glucan exopolysaccharide derived from Enterococcus hirae OL616073

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluated the influence of cold plasma treatment on the physicochemical characteristics of glucan exopolysaccharide (EPS) produced by Enterococcus hirae OL616073 isolated from idli batter. The glucan EPS was exposed to pin‐to‐plate atmospheric cold plasma at 170–230 V for 5–15 min, generating cold plasma‐treated glucan (CPTG ...

Hunting for the genetic loci underlying root lodging resistance by BSR-seq and QTL mapping in maize

BMC Plant Biology
Background Lodging is one of the major factors that affect mechanical harvesting and decreases yield and quality of maize. Exploring quantitative trait loci (QTL) or genes underlying lodging resistance is vital for molecular breeding of lodging-resistant
