Cyanogenic,carotenoids and protein composition in leaves and roots across seven diverse population found in the world cassava germplasm collection at CIAT,Colombia

The objective of this study was to characterise the nutritional potential of leaves and identify a diversity centre with low cyanide and high nutrient content among 178 Latin American cassava genotypes. This field-based collection represents the seven diversity centres, held at The International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT Palmira, Colombia) by the Cassava Program. The cyanide, all-trans-β-carotene and lutein concentrations in cassava leaves ranged from 346 to 7484 ppm dry basis (db), from 174–547 μg g⁻¹ db and 15–181 μg g⁻¹ db, respectively. Cassava leaves also showed significant levels of essential amino acids leucine, lysine, phenylalanine, valine and threonine, and average total protein content of 26.24 g 100 g⁻¹ db. Among seven diversity centres, South American rainforest group showed low cyanide and high carotene content in leaves. In addition, VEN77 and PAN51 genotypes stood out for having low cyanide in leaves and roots and high carotene in leaves. This genetic diversity can be used to select high potential progenitors for breeding purposes.     

Purification,structural data and biological properties of polysaccharide from Prunus amygdalus gum

This work demonstrates the efficiency of almond gum polysaccharides (AGPs) as bioactive compounds. AGPs were first extracted using H₂O₂, in the presence of NaOH, at different times and temperatures. The optimal extraction conditions were 4% H₂O₂ and 2 N NaOH, for 7 h at 50 °C, leading to an extraction yield of 58.2% (w/w). After a purification step, the retained AGPs were characterised using high‐performance liquid chromatography showing a molecular weight of 99.3 kDa. The monosaccharide composition of AGPs were assessed using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. AGPs were found to be a complex heteropolysaccharide with a repeating unit mainly composed of galactose, arabinose, xylose, mannose, rhamnose, and glucuronic acid with the respective ratios: 45:26:7:10:1:11. The acidic nature of the polysaccharide is due to the presence of glucuronic acid. Total antioxidant activity, free radical‐scavenging activity and reducing power assay of AGPs were investigated. The obtained results showed high antioxidant activities of AGPs. Furthermore, beyond 60 mg mL^?1, AGPs exhibited bacterial growth inhibition for five pathogenic strains: Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus feacalis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Salmonella typhimurium.

陈化过程中不同部位烤烟烟叶香味成分变化的研究

采用SDE-GC/MS法对陈化过程中不同部位烤烟烟叶的香味成分进行分析检测,并按照香味物质的产生来源对分析结果进行了分类研究。结果表明,陈化过程中不同部位烟叶的香味物质的变化情况差别明显。从香味成分的变化情况看,各个部位适宜的陈化时间有所不同:上部烟叶2年以上,中部烟叶1.5~2年,下部烟叶1年左右。

Antioxidant activity in leaves of some mediterranean plants

Hexane and methanol leaf extracts of sixteen Mediterranean plant species were obtained by percolation. Higher yields were observed for methanol (16.4–47.8%) than for hexane extracts (1.3–13%). Antioxidant activity of these extracts was determined by a rapid spectrophotometric method involving the combined oxidation of beta-carotene and linoleic acid. Leaf extracts were thus characterized by an Antioxidant Activity Coefficient (AAC) ranging from 0 to 1000. Hexane extracts gave much higher AAC values than the corresponding methanol extracts. In both cases, myrtle (Myrtus communis) showed the best antioxidant effectiveness.     

Solid/liquid extraction and isolation by molecular distillation of hydroxytyrosol from Olea europaea L. leaves

Molecular distillation, or short‐path distillation (SPD), is particularly appropriate for processing of low‐volatility compounds, which are easily altered at high temperature. Olea europaea L. leaves constitute an olive tree by‐product very interesting for their natural antioxidants content. In this research, molecular distillation technology has been applied to obtain high‐value‐added compounds by the SPD fractionation of an olive tree leaf extract. The process consists of two stages: (a) ethanolic extraction of the olive leaves, followed by incorporation of the extract into glycerine and (b) molecular distillation of the glycerine enriched in olive leaf extract compounds (terpenic and phenolic compounds). Four molecular distillation tests under different conditions were carried out. Results showed that 80.9% 3,4‐dihydroxy‐phenylethanol (hydroxytyrosol) was recovered from the glycerine admixture under a pressure of 1.50–2.00 mbar, a temperature of 190 °C and a feed rate of 15 mL/min.     

基于TACNN的玉露香梨叶虫害识别

为了解决玉露香梨叶虫害种类多、扩散速度快、人工识别梨叶虫害耗时长的问题,提出了能够在自然环境下对玉露香梨叶虫害图像自动识别的Tiny-Alexnet卷积神经网络（Tiny-Alexnet Convolution Neural Network,TACNN）的虫害识别模型。分析了Alexnet模型的网络结构,并将实地采集的玉露香叶片虫害图像进行统一处理,为避免全连接层卷积核参数过大而产生的过拟合现象,通过优化全连接层,设置不同神经元节点和实验参数,得出了Mid-Alexnet、TACNN两种虫害识别模型。实验结果表明：TACNN较Alexnet和Mid-Alexnet模型有较高的识别准确率,该模型能够有效地提取梨叶虫害特征,类别平均准确率为81.18%,实现了对金龟子、梨木虱、梨瘿蚊三种虫害的准确区分。该模型在玉露香梨叶虫害识别方面具有良好的性能,可实现自然环境下玉露香梨叶虫害的精准识别。
