Genetic diversity and population structure studies of West African sweetpotato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam] collection using DArTseq. by Issa Zakari Mahaman Mourtala, Arnaud Comlan Gouda, Dan-Jimo Baina, Nwankwo Innocent Ifeanyi Maxwell, Charlotte O A Adje, Moussa Baragé, Oselebe Ogba Happiness

“…Population structure analysis divided the 271 accessions into four populations (population 1 was characterised by a mixture of accessions from all countries; population 2, mostly comprised of Nigerian breeding lines; population 3 contained exclusively landraces from Benin; and population 4 was composed by only landraces from West African countries) at K = 4, and analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) based on PhiPT values showed that most of the variation was explained when accessions were categorized based on population structure at K = 4 (25.25%) and based on cluster analysis (19.43%). …”

Fibre-like structure formation in fava bean protein based extrudates: effects of extrusion inputs and potential of outputs for process control by Clara Barnés-Calle, Grau Matas, Pere Gou, Elena Fulladosa

“…High moisture extrusion processing (HMEP) is a complex process in which product formulation and extrusion conditions play a key role in fibre-like structure formation. The aim of this work was to study the effect of process input parameters (formulation, liquid feed, and extrusion temperature) on the texture development of a high moisture extrudate (HME) based on fava bean protein concentrate (FBPC), combined with a different protein source (pea protein isolate - PPI) or an oil ingredient (extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)). …”

CMC/SA/CB/CNT/thermally exfoliated-MXene five-component sponge-structured sensing materials and their enhanced sensitivity and stability by Yanzhi Cai, Zixuan Yu, Laifei Cheng, Yibing Yuan, Xue Huang, Mingxing Chen, Yalong Chai, Shaoxiong Ren, Yuan Zhou

“…Thermal treatment of MXene not only enhances its conductivity but also makes it easier to exfoliate into nanosheets, resulting in a more uniform distribution of T-MXene within the pore walls. The 3D porous structure improves anti-fatigue stability and promotes contact site variation during deformation, boosting cyclic stability and sensitivity. …”
