The present study represents the first major attempt to characterize biochemical profile in different tissues of a large selection apple cultivars sourced from United Kingdom's National Fruit Collection comprising dessert, ornamental, cider, and culinary apples. Furthermore, advanced machine learning methods were applied with objective identify whether phenolic sugar composition an cultivar could be used as biomarker fingerprint differentiate between heritage mainstream commercial well...
Application of UV-C has been shown to enhance the biochemical profile various plant materials. This could be used increase load, reducing amount material required but still impart equivalent flavour. As spices, such as black pepper (
Tea is an important cash crop in Kenya, grown a climatically restricted geographic area where climatic variability starting to affect yield productivity levels. This paper assesses the feasibility of monitoring tea growth between, but also within fields, using X-band COSMO-SkyMed SAR images (five at VV polarization and five HH polarization). We detect harvested nonharvested areas for each field, based on loss interferometric coherence between two images, with accuracy 52% 74% polarization....
Withering is considered a crucial stage of black tea processing. In this study, shoots from two cultivars (cvs. Yabukita and Clone 2) were stored at 5 °C, in either low or high vapour pressure deficit (VPD) environment, to determine the impact different withering rates on physiology (viz. respiration rate [RR], colour moisture loss) biochemical profile individual catechins, methylxanthines) (Camellia sinensis). Low VPD conditions during increased caffeine levels 2 Yabukita, respectively (p <...
The European gooseberry (Ribes uva-crispa) is still an understudied crop with limited data available on its biochemical profile and postharvest life. A variety of polyphenols were detected in the skin flesh 20 cvs, representing mainly flavonol glycosides, anthocyanins flavan-3-ols. In contrast, seeds for first time characterised by presence considerable amounts hydroxycinnamic acid glycosides tentatively identified UPLC-QToF/MS. All cvs examined represented a good source vitamin C while...
Previous studies have confirmed the agricultural stage as an important contributor to total tea life cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. We therefore focus on growing and processing of black evaluate GHG reduction potential possible management interventions for produced from Unilever's estates factories in Kenya. A baseline footprint was calculated using data collected over four years. Potential reduce per kg focused key drivers (yield fertiliser use) footprint. These their effects...
