Almond population genomics and non-additive GWAS reveal new insights into almond dissemination history and candidate genes for nut traits and blooming time
(Oxford University Press, 2023-09-25)
Domestication drastically changed crop genomes, fixing alleles of interest and creating different genetic populations. Genome-wide
association studies (GWASs) are a powerful tool to detect these alleles ...
The Gamma concept approach as a tool to predict fresh produce supporting or not the growth of L. monocytogenes
(Elsevier, 2024-04-27)
Challenge tests are commonly employed to evaluate the growth behavior of L. monocytogenes in food matrices;
they are known for being expensive and time-consuming. An alternative could be the use of ...
The ethylene-responsive transcription factor ERF024 is a novel regulator of climacteric fruit ripening in melon
(Wiley, 2024-06-20)
Fruit ripening is an essential developmental stage in Angiosperms triggered by hormonal signals such as
ethylene, a major player in climacteric ripening. Melon is a unique crop showing both climacteric ...
Gestational Caloric Restriction Alters Adipose Tissue Methylome and Offspring’s Metabolic Profile in a Swine Model
(MDPI, 2024-01-17)
Limited nutrient supply to the fetus results in physiologic and metabolic adaptations that have unfavorable consequences in the offspring. In a swine animal model, we aimed to study the effects of ...
Copy Number Variation on ABCC2-DNMBP Loci Affects the Diversity and Composition of the Fecal Microbiota in Pigs
(American Society for Microbiology, 2023-05-31)
Genetic variation in the pig genome partially modulates the composition of porcine gut microbial communities. Previous studies have been focused on the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms ...
A hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC)-based coating inhibits ethylene-dependent quality changes and reduces superficial scald incidence and blue mould severity during postharvest handling of two apple varieties
(Elsevier, 2023-10-12)
The search of new alternatives to substitute postharvest treatments based on synthetic chemicals has gained attention on recent years due to social pressure and stricter legislative policies. Consequently, ...
MicroRNA expression in specific segments of the pig periovulatory internal genital tract is differentially regulated by semen or by seminal plasma
(Elsevier, 2024-01-02)
microRNAs play pivotal roles during mammalian reproduction, including the cross-talk between gametes, embryos and the maternal genital tract. Mating induces changes in the expression of mRNA transcripts ...
Anti-PD-L1 Immunotherapy of Chronic Virus Infection Improves Virus Control without Augmenting Tissue Damage by Fibrosis
(MDPI, 2024-05-17)
Immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors, albeit commonly used against tumors, is
still at its infancy against chronic virus infections. It relies on the reinvigoration of exhausted T
lymphocytes to ...
Acrylamide and 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural in Synthetic Sugar Cane Syrup: Mitigation by Additives
(MDPI, 2023-04-04)
The ability of additives to reduce the formation of acrylamide in simulated sugar cane
syrups was investigated. Organic acids, B vitamins, and inorganic salts were added individually
and in combination ...
Optimising sewage sludge anaerobic digestion for resource recovery in wastewater treatment plants
(Elsevier, 2024-02-08)
Recovering resources from sludge generated during wastewater treatment is both an opportunity and a challenge. Thermophilic anaerobic digestion may optimise biogas production and digested sludge properties ...
