Abstract:
... Among insects, female oviposition preferences are critical to understanding the evolutionary dynamics between herbivores and hosts. Previous studies have shown than in Drosophila, resource use has a strong genetic basis, although there is evidence that preferences are adaptable given isolation from ancestral hosts. Given the high degree of adaptability and behavioral plasticity of invasive species ...

Abstract:
... Agricultural irrigation wastage, especially from inefficient infrastructure in developing nations, is among the leading causes of the global water shortage epidemic, which affects an estimated 2.8 billion people worldwide. In this project, a three-component cloudless internet-of-things (IoT)-based irrigation network is designed and constructed to affordably integrate into existing irrigation infra ...

Abstract:
... The paper outlines a procedure based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry and QuEChERS pretreatment for the determination of patulin in selected berries and stone fruits. The mycotoxin was determined in the positive electrospray ionization mode utilizing the formation of its methanol adduct. The method was validated for 4 fruit matrices: ...

Abstract:
... PREMISE: High‐precision data acquisition (DAQ) is essential for developing new methods in the plant sciences. Commercial high‐resolution DAQ systems are cost prohibitive, whereas the less expensive systems that are currently available lack the resolution and precision required for many physiological measurements. METHODS AND RESULTS: We developed the software libraries, called piadcs, and hardware ...
raspberries, etc ; Hepatovirus A; detection limit; food microbiology; Show all 4 Subjects
Abstract:
... Berries are important vehicles for norovirus (NoV) and hepatitis A virus (HAV) foodborne outbreaks. Sensitive and quantitative detection of these viruses in food samples currently relies on RT-qPCR, but remains challenging due to their low concentration and the presence of RT-qPCR inhibitors. Moreover, quantification requires a standard curve. In this study, crystal digital RT-PCR (RT-cdPCR) assay ...

Abstract:
... Regulatory changes in different countries regarding self-consumption and growing public concern about the environment are encouraging the establishment of community microgrids. These community microgrids integrate a large number of small-scale distributed energy resources and offers a solution to enhance power system reliability and resilience. This work proposes a geographically-based split of th ...

Abstract:
... At present, there have been some researches on deep neural networks used in the field of biometrics to solve the problem of cattle identity authentication, particularly facial recognition under non-invasive methods. However, due to the large scale of deep neural network models, it is difficult to implement directly in resource-constrained embedded systems. Therefore, a lightweight neural network i ...

Abstract:
... AbstractRubus dianchuanensis, a new name for the species previously named as R. vicarius by W. O. Focke in 1911, is proposed. A detailed description, illustrations, and remarks on its phenology, ecology, and geographic distribution are provided. This raspberry (subg. Idaeobatus) is endemic to China and was only found in Sichuan and Yunnan, southwest China. Morphologically, it is most similar to R ...

Abstract:
... Plants produce myriad aroma compounds—odorous molecules that are key factors in countless aspects of the plant's life cycle, including pollinator attraction and communication within and between plants. For humans, aroma compounds convey accurate information on food type, and are vital for assessing the environment. The phenylpropanoid pathway is the origin of notable aroma compounds, such as raspb ...

Abstract:
... Garbage classification technology is not only an important basis for the harmless treatment of waste and resource recovery, but also the inevitable trend of social development. The current garbage classification methods rely on manual classification in the garbage collection stage, and it is difficult to achieve satisfying results in consistency, stability, and sanitary conditions. For this reason ...

Abstract:
... In Central Russia, the area of possible effective use of raspberry varieties and their productivity and production values are determined by the plant tolerance to a complex of adverse environmental factors. In this regard, the introduction of new varieties and hybrids should be accompanied by analyzing not only their productivity, but also their winter hardiness and drought resistance. In this pap ...

Abstract:
... This paper describes eight imagery datasets including around 12000 images grouped in 1220 sets. The images were captured inside an architectural model aimed at exploring the impact of shading panels on photobiological lighting parameters. The architectural model represents a generic space at 1:10 scale with a single side fully glazing façade used to install shading panels. The datasets present int ...

Abstract:
... The PV-assisted charging station (PVCS) aggregates the two key resources of electric vehicle (EV) charging load and photovoltaic (PV) system to maximize operation profit. In order to quantify the PVCS impact to grid and the renewable energy utilization by EV charging load, it is crucial to predict the PVCS net power and capture the most correlated factors for power variation. Given that the PVCS i ...

Abstract:
... This article describes the preparation of hierarchical microsieves via float-casting using raspberry particles. The raspberry particles consist of a larger spherical particle (the core) and smaller particles (satellites) that are attached on the surface of the core and were connected to the core via a surface reaction of isocyanate and amino groups. The raspberry particles were spread onto a water ...

Abstract:
... Flavonoid based proanthocyanidins and cinnamyl alcohol based lignins are chemically complex phenolic oligomers/polymers that are found in food plants. Although structurally very different, these two biopolymers are often not distinguished, for example, in the (quantitative) compositional analysis of cell walls and dietary fiber. Here, we analytically distinguish lignin and proanthocyanidins in die ...

Abstract:
... In recent decades, the spotted wing Drosophila (SWD) (Drosophila suzukii), an invasive pest, has caused a great deal of damage to fruit crops. There is therefore an urgent need to develop strategies to control the populations of this species. It has been found that the landscape context can buffer or increase the severity of pest outbreaks in agriculture, and it is important to understand how this ...

Abstract:
... This study aimed to verify if microwave hydrodiffusion and gravity (MHG) could efficiently extract anthocyanins from strawberries and raspberries with low environmental impact and costs. Our findings revealed that it was possible to extract 69 and 64% anthocyanins from the strawberries and raspberries in a single extraction step, respectively. When the co-product (product remaining after extractin ...

The nutritional and commercial value of double yolk eggs is higher than that of single yolk eggs, but the traditional manual identification of double yolk eggs is costly, inefficient and has high error. For rapid and accurate identification of double yolk eggs, a portable double yolk nondestructive identification system and an online double yolk nondestructive identification system are proposed in ...

Abstract:
... Producer organisations bear great potential to link small-scale farmers to markets. In post-communist economies, historically negative attitudes towards cooperatives are blamed as barriers to collaboration, but little is known about the broader range of motives to (not) cooperate. We use a structural equation model to analyse cooperation intentions in Kosovo’s emerging export-oriented raspberry se ...

A raspberry corona configuration with full surface coverage of the core can be reached by inducing strong attractive interactions between the individual particles. A controlled partial surface coverage of the core, i.e. strawberry configuration ...
