Dietary nitrosyl-heme from processed meats and its association with colorectal cancer risk: findings from the EPIC cohort study
(Nutrition Journal, 2025-12-20)Background Processed meat (PM) consumption is an established risk factor for colorectal cancer (CRC). It has been hypothesized that nitrosyl-heme, formed by the addition of nitrites during meat processing, ... -
Bacterial communities show distinctive spatial diversity patterns in productive truffle orchards amended with peat-based substrate
(Environmental Microbiome, 2026-01-14)As truffle cultivation expands, growers empirically develop new agronomic management practices aimed at promoting truffle growth such as “truffle nests”, localized peat amendments that are supplemented ... -
Modelling the survival of Listeria monocytogenes in oat plant-based milk alternatives: The synergistic potential of HHP and nisin
(LWT - Food Science and Technology, 2026-01-14)The growing popularity of plant-based milk alternatives (PBMAs), particularly oat-based beverages, is driven by consumer demand for sustainable, vegan, and lactose-free options. High Hydrostatic Pressure ... -
Natural curing strategies for nitrite-free dry-fermented sausages: Effects of NOS-positive Staphylococcus spp., Zn-protoporphyrin and polyphenol-rich extracts on untargeted metabolome and sensory quality
(Food Research International, 2026-01-17)The reduction of permitted nitrite levels in meat products by the European Union, driven by concerns related to nitrosamine formation and consumer health, has intensified the need for effective and safe ... -
Feasibility of Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) Fry Rearing in Biofloc System: Effect of Total Suspended Solid Levels on Zootechnical Performance, Intestinal Condition and Antioxidant Enzyme Activity
(Animals, 2026-02-01)This study evaluated the effects of different total suspended solid (SST) levels (0, 250 and 350 mg L−1) on the productive performance, intestinal condition and antioxidant enzyme activity of rainbow ... -
Screening Almond Cultivars for Water Stress Tolerance Using Multiple Diagnostic Parameters
(Agronomy, 2026-02-20)Climate change influences the agronomic behaviour of fruit trees. It is necessary to determine which cultivars adapt best to conditions in which water supplies are becoming increasingly scarce. This ... -
The association of environmentally sustainable healthy dietary patterns and risk of neurological and psychiatric disorders: A systematic review and meta-analysis of 28 cohorts
(Nutritional Psychiatry, 2026-02-13)Purpose The current burden of neurological and psychiatric disorders is a major issue in public health. We aimed to explore how adherence to healthy diets with low environmental impact (HDLE)—Mediterranean, ... -
Fruit respiration: putting alternative pathways into perspective
(New Phytologist, 2026-02-10)Over the past century, research has significantly advanced our understanding of fruit respiration, from (eco)physiological processes to molecular mechanisms. This review focuses on the functional relevance ... -
Incorporating Genomic and Transcriptomic Effects in Joint Linear and Non-Linear Structural Models for Predicting Complex Traits in Pigs
(Animal, 2026-01-20)Phenotypes in livestock are shaped by genetic variation as well as downstream regulatory mechanisms, making the prediction of complex traits a key challenge for animal breeding. Transcriptomic data ... -
Soil fungal network complexity and functional roles differ between black truffle plantations and forests
(Soil, 2026-01-09)Black truffle (Tuber melanosporum Vittad.), a valued edible fungus, has been thoroughly studied for its ability to modify soil conditions and influence microbial communities in its environment as it ... -
Digital Twin Irrigation Strategies to Mitigate Drought Effects in Processing Tomatoes
(Horticulturae, 2025-12-26)The increasing frequency and intensity of droughts, a direct consequence of climate change, represent one of the main threats to agriculture, especially for crops with a high water demand such as the ... -
Agronomic performance of sheep manure–enriched municipal solid waste compost for red beetroot cultivation (Gharb region, Morocco)
(Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2026-01-13)Industrial waste poses a major challenge in Morocco and worldwide, as its increasing production presents significant environmental concerns. In Morocco, approximately 1.6 million tonnes of industrial ... -
Pelleted Total Mixed Rations as a Feeding Strategy for High-Yielding Dairy Ewes
(Agriculture, 2026-01-15)The effects of pelleting a total mixed ration (TMR) for dairy sheep were investigated in an experiment involving 24 lactating Assaf ewes, which were assigned to two groups and fed the same TMR ad libitum, ... -
Fermentation technologies to produce and improve alternative protein sources
(Foods, 2025-12-31)The growing global population, along with evolving dietary trends and increasing concerns about health and the environment, underscores the urgent need to transform current food systems to minimize their ... -
Assessing the performance of multi-timescale drought indices for monitoring agricultural drought impacts on wheat yield
