Due to the ongoing rise in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations and other downstream effects of climate change, global crop agricultural yields are projected to be severely impacted. To combat this issue, a clear understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which plants are able to respond to increasing CO2 levels is imperative. This stu...
3D printability of green composites is currently experiencing a boost in importance and interest, envisaging a way to valorise agricultural waste, in order to obtain affordable fillers for the preparation of biodegradable polymer-based composites with reduced cost and environmental impact, without undermining processability and mechanical performan...
Rhizoctonia root rot is one of the most destructive diseases of tomato and other crops. The biocontrol of plant diseases using endophytic bacteria has gained significant attention due to their distinct advantages compared with the free-living ones, as well as their new unexplored and unique properties. Endophytic Bacillus subtilis SR22 represents a...

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is cultivated and consumed worldwide, including in Indonesia. It is used in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries, due to its high content of carotenoid (lycopene) compounds that have antioxidant and anticancer activities. In Indonesia, although several cultivars of tomato are cultivated, including Opal,...
Bactericera cockerelli es un insecto polífago que afecta solanáceas de importancia económica como papa (Solanum tuberosum), tomate (Solanum lycopersicum), berenjena (Solanum melongena), tabaco (Nicotiana tabacum) y otras solanáceas silvestres (CABI, 2022). El daño causado puede ser de dos formas, la directa la producen principalmente las ninfas. Al...

Higher plants synthesize a variety of high value secondary metabolites that can also be beneficial for human health. The quantitative analysis of the target compound is a key aspect for both analytical and preparative extraction processes for designing effective processes. Previous approaches have described the extraction by mechanisms such as diff...

Metabolomics plays a pivotal role in systems biology, and NMR is a central tool with high precision and exceptional resolution of chemical information. Most NMR metabolomic studies are based on 1H 1D spectroscopy, severely limited by peak overlap. 13C NMR benefits from a larger signal dispersion but is barely used in metabolomics due to ca. 6000-fo...
High-throughput sequence analysis revealed the complete genome sequence of a novel, hitherto uncharacterized strain of Chickpea chlorotic dwarf virus (CpCDV) from tomato plants in Kenya. The sequence shared its highest nucleotide similarity (88.7%) with two CpCDV isolates from Burkina Faso.
Introduction: The tomato constitutes an important source of nutrients, being classified as an optimal food to fortify the population that presents deficit of iron, zinc and cyanocobalamin.Material and Methods: Two treatments were applied, one with inorganic minerals and the other with chelated amino minerals through a process of foliar biofortifica...
