Rose hip processing generates seed-rich by-products that remain underexplored beyond oil extraction, despite their potential as a source of phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity. This study investigates the effect of bioprocessing (short-term f...
Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var. durum) plays a central role in global food and nutritional security, yet its grain mineral and protein quality remain highly variable across varieties and environments. This study aimed to evaluate the combined...
The collection of high-quality seeds to produce forest seedlings is closely linked with the time of harvesting. Climate warming is already having visible effects in all life stages of forest tree species, including the timing of seed maturation. The...
Viviparity is rarely reported in species with seed physical dormancy. This is because physical dormancy, common in tropical trees, results from the impermeability of the seed tegument to water and regulates the timing of germination. Records of germi...
The objective of this research was to apply morphometric and chemometric techniques to analyze the influence of climate and soil type on the morphological, proximate, and fatty acid fingerprints of moringa (Moringa oleifera Lam.) seeds cultivated in...
Seed dispersal by humans plays an important role in determining vegetation structure. The seeds of Asian plantain (Plantago asiatica L.) form adhesive mucilage upon hydration, facilitating their attachment to shoes and subsequent dispersal via epizoo...
Moringa oleifera (Lam.) is a multipurpose agroforestry tree cultivated worldwide for its nutritional, medicinal, and economic value, and it is increasingly grown commercially in subtropical regions, including Nepal. While vegetative propagation is fe...
