Although Prickly pear seeds are agroindustrial wastes, these residues are a natural source of antioxidant compounds. Thus, this study analyzed two green technologies like Pressurized Liquid Extraction (PLE) and Ultrasoun...

Abstract Objective Carrot (Daucus carota) is a widely cultivated vegetable crop with high nutritional value. Alternaria is one of the most damaging fungal pathogens to carrots, responsible for diseases such as leaf bligh...

Abstract Opuntia ficus-indica (L.) Mill., a prominent member of the Cactaceae, possesses notable economic, medicinal, and cosmetic relevance. This study characterizes the seed oil of O. ficus-indica, assessing its phytoc...

Agrarian crisis refers to the issues related to the declining lives of farmers and distress situation in the agricultural sector. The Tamil film Kadaisi Vivasayi (The Last Farmer) taken for the research focusses on the ...

ABSTRACT Adopting conservationist soil use and management practices, such as the no-tillage system and cover crops associated with organic agriculture, can improve the quality of fragile soils. This study aimed to evalua...

Abstract One of the main obstacles to starting successful coffee plantations is the asynchronous and slow germination of Coffea arabica L seeds. Seed priming increases the percentage of germination. Several studies have ...

Abstract Salinity stress severely limits crop productivity, particularly in maize, necessitating innovative pre-sowing treatments that can enhance seed resilience and performance. This study evaluates the effects of pre-...

The purpose of this work is to determine energy-efficient regimes for aerodynamic tube dehydration of residual products from agro-industrial technologies. To achieve this goal, an experimental electrical installation was...

Abstract This study investigates the unconventional effects of gamma irradiation and/or metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) on Raphanus sativus. Silver chromate/aluminum-based MOFs were applied to both irradiated and non-irr...

Smilax glabra, a perennial vine with high pharmaceutical value, exhibits seed dormancy under natural conditions that severely restricts artificial propagation and industrial-scale cultivation. This study aims to systemat...

Seed germination is severely constrained by soil salinity, limiting crop establishment in salt-affected agricultural lands. This study investigated whether seed priming with molybdenum nanoparticles (Mo NPs) enhances ger...

Abstract Background The seed microbiome plays a key role in the assembly of the plant microbiome, which has major impacts on plant health. Nonetheless, little is known about the origin of the seed microbiome. We investig...

Abstract The primary factors contributing to poor seed quality and lower rice yields are largely attributed to inadequate seed quality management strategies. The quality of rice seeds and productivity in the Fogera Plain...

In studies on the reproduction and germination of species with indehiscent fruits containing a single seed, it is often assumed that all fruits that reach maturity contain a seed capable of generating a new plant. This i...

Abstract Hyperlipidemia is a major global health concern, driving cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and causing over 17.9 million annual deaths primarily through resulting oxidative stress and organ damage. Although statin...

Annonaceae is a family of approximately 2,430 species of angiosperms, about 70 of which contribute to the diversity of Mexico's tropical forests. Some species produce pleasant fruits, others generate essences used in per...
