A multilevel investigation supported by multivariate analysis for tomato product formulation
(European Food Research and Technology, 2021-06-18)Industrial processing of tomato includes its cutting and mincing, thermal treatments, and the addition of ingredients, which might induce changes in physicochemical properties of the final products. In ... -
A multiplier peroxiporin signal transduction pathway powers piscine spermatozoa
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), 2021-03-09)The primary task of a spermatozoon is to deliver its nuclear payload to the egg to form the next-generation zygote. With polyandry repeatedly evolving in the animal kingdom, however, sperm competition ... -
A mutation in the melon Vacuolar Protein Sorting 41prevents systemic infection of Cucumber mosaic virus
(Scientific Reports, 2017-09-05)In the melon exotic accession PI 161375, the gene cmv1, confers recessive resistance to Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) strains of subgroup II. cmv1 prevents the systemic infection by restricting the ... -
A mycobacterial disease is associated with the silent mass mortality of the pen shell Pinna nobilis along the Tyrrhenian coastline of Italy
