Identification of the promising Persian walnut (Juglans regia L.) genotypes among seedling-originated trees
Considerable genetic diversity among the native populations of Persian walnut (Juglans regia L.) provides a great opportunity to identify genotypes with valuable traits. In the present study, morphological and pomological diversity assessments of 362 walnut seedling origin genotypes were performed to identify superior genotypes. Significant differences were observed among the genotypes investigated in terms of […]
Studies of Resistance of PP/Natural Filler Polymer Composites to Decomposition Caused by Fungi
The article discusses the grain morphology of the natural filler from hazelnut and walnut shell flour. It was observed that the geometry of both meals is similar to each other and resembles uneven balls in shape. The heterogeneity and well-developed outer surface of the flour grains allow for filling the voids with the polymer matrix. […]
Shelf-Life Evolution of the Fatty Acid Fingerprint in High-Quality Hazelnuts (Corylus avellana L.) Harvested in Different Geographical Regions
Hazelnuts are characterized by a relatively high abundance of oleic acid and poly-unsaturated fatty acids, which give this fruit a high nutritional value. As a counterbalance, such a lipid profile is more susceptible to autoxidation and/or degradation reactions under enzymatic catalysis. Lipid oxidation occurs on fatty acids (FAs), both esterified on triacylglycerols and in free […]
AIEgens enabled ultrasensitive point-of-care test for multiple targets of food safety: Aflatoxin B 1 and cyclopiazonic acid as an example
Food safety is currently a significant issue for human life and health. Various fluorescent nanomaterials have been applied in the point-of-care test (POCT) for food safety as labeling materials. However, previous fluorescent nanomaterials can cause aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ), thus reducing the detection sensitivity. Conversely, aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) are promising candidates for POCT in the […]
Expression of AhATL1, an ABA Transport Factor Gene from Peanut, Is Affected by Altered Memory Gene Expression Patterns and Increased Tolerance to Drought Stress in Arabidopsis
Arachis hypogaea abscisic acid transporter like-1 (AhATL1) modulates abscisic acid (ABA) sensitivity by specifically influencing the importing of ABA into cells, and is a key player in plant stress responses. However, there is limited information on ABA transporters in crops. In this study, we found that the level of AhATL1 expression and AhATL1 distribution increased […]
