• An efcient CRISPR-Cas9 enrichment sequencing strategy for characterizing complex and highly duplicated genomic regions. A case study in the Prunus salicina LG3-MYB10 genes cluster 

  Fiol, Arnau; Jurado-Ruiz, Federico; López-Girona, Elena; Aranzana, Maria Jose (Plant Methods, 2022-08-27) Genòmica i Biotecnologia

  Background: Genome complexity is largely linked to diversifcation and crop innovation. Examples of regions with duplicated genes with relevant roles in agricultural traits are found in many crops. In ...

• Administration of Alphitobius diaperinus or Tenebrio molitor before meals transiently increases food intake through enterohormone regulation in female rats 

  Miguéns-Gómez, Alba; Sierra-Cruz, Marta; Segú, Helena; Beltrán-Debón, Raúl; Rodríguez-Gallego, Esther; Terra, Ximena; Blay, M. Teresa; Pérez-Vendrell, Anna Maria; Pinent, Montserrat; Ardévol, Anna (Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2022-11-02) Nutrició Animal

  Background. It has been previously shown that acutely administered insect A. diaperinus protein increases food intake in rats and modifies the ex vivo enterohormone secretory profile differently than ...

• Influence of pork liver drying on ferrochelatase activity for zinc protoporphyrin formation 

  Abril, B.; Sanchez-Torres, E.A.; Bou, Ricard; Benedito, J.; Garcia-Perez, Jose V. (LWT - Food Science and Technology, 2022-10-27) Funcionalitat i Seguretat Alimentària

  Pork liver contains an endogenous enzyme, ferrochelatase (FeCH), which catalyses the formation of zinc protoporphyrin (ZnPP), a natural pigment of great interest for the meat industry. The aim of this ...

• Can sensory boar taint levels be explained by fatty acid composition and emitted volatile organic compounds in addition to androstenone and skatole content? 

  Burgeon, Clément; Font i Furnols, Maria; Garrido, María Dolores; Linares, María Belén; Brostaux, Yves; Sabeña, Gerard; Fauconnier, Marie-Laure; Panella-Riera, Nuria (Meat Science, 2022-09-16) Qualitat i Tecnologia Alimentària

  This study aimed at understanding which molecules were responsible for the differences existing in boar taint sensory evaluation. The latter was therefore linked to the results of skatole and androstenone ...
