The plant kingdom contains an enormous diversity of bioactive compounds which regulate plant growth and defends against biotic and abiotic stress. Some of these compounds, like flavonoids, have properties which are health supporting and relevant for industrial use. Many of these valuable compounds are synthesized in various pepper (Capsicum sp.) ti...

Optimal light conditions ensure the availability of sufficient photosynthetic assimilates for supporting the survival and growth of fruit organs in crops. One of the growing uses of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) in horticulture is intra-canopy illumination or LED-interlighting, providing supplemental light for intensively cultivated crops directly w...

Introduction. Pruning the stems of bell pepper has been recommended to improve light interception, increase fruit set, and the quality of fruits. Objective. To evaluate the effect of pruning on yield components of two pepper hybrids established in two environments: open field and protected field under roof with plastic and natural ventilation. Mate...

Capsicum annuum L. is one of the most cultivated Solanaceae species, and in the open field, water limitation leading to drought stress affects its fruit quality, fruit setting, fruit size and ultimately yield. We identified stage-specific and a common core set of differentially expressed genes, following RNA-seq transcriptome analyses of a breeding...

Pepper cultivation in Israel has been constrained by two sympatric poleroviruses, Pepper vein yellows virus-2 (PeVYV-2) and Pepper whitefly-borne vein yellows virus (PeWBVYV), which are transmitted specifically by aphids and whiteflies, respectively. This study investigated the interaction between PeVYV-2 and PeWBVYV inside the host plant and the i...

Paprika powder is a good source of different carotenoids and polyphenols, which play a key role in preventing certain diseases (some kinds of cancer and cardiovascular diseases). They can also be used as natural food colorants. Organic production is characterized by strict rules, but products obtained in this way contain more bioactive compounds, s...

Identifying and annotating the molecular composition of individual foods will improve scientific understanding of how foods impact human health and how much variation exists in the molecular composition of foods of the same species. The complexity of this task includes distinct varieties and variations in natural occurring pigments of foods. Lipido...

AbstractDespite cold stress is a critical environmental condition that influences the growth and development of bell pepper (Capsicum annuum L.), the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the genes associated with the low temperature stress response in bell pepper. Bell pepper ‘Zhongjiao NO.4’ (CRC, cold resist...

This work analyzed the individual and combined effects of biochemical additives and probiotic strain Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG on red and yellow fresh-cut bell pepper (R- and Y-FCBP, respectively) stored at two different temperatures (4 °C and 15 °C) for 15 days. The results revealed that the combined application of biochemical additives and L. rh...
