Abstract:
... Mango byproducts, such as peels, contain high levels of antioxidants and fiber and represent important sources of nutraceuticals and pharmacological products. Fruit are collected at the mature green stage then stored and ripened, undergoing several structural and molecular changes over the course of this process. However, very little is known regarding the content and nature of antioxidant compoun ...

Abstract:
... Hordeum species develop a central spikelet flanked by two lateral spikelets at each inflorescence node. In ‘two‐rowed’ spikes, the central spikelet alone is fertile and sets grain, while in ‘six‐rowed’ spikes, lateral spikelets can also produce grain. Induced loss‐of‐function alleles of any of five Six‐rowed spike (VRS) genes (VRS1‐5) cause complete to intermediate gains of lateral spikelet fertil ...
