Pepper plants are subject to complex environmental factors including abiotic and biotic stresses in fields, as well as the significant effects of climate changes, including low and high temperatures. Low temperature stress in the growth and developme...
The chili pepper is a very important plant used worldwide as a vegetable, as a spice, and as an external medicine. In this work, eight different varieties of Capsicum annuum L. have been characterized by their capsaicinoids content. The chili peppe...
Peppers (Capsicum annuum L.), including pungent chili types and non-pungent sweet and bell types, are a widely cultivated economic crop with high nutritional and commercial importance. Their postharvest behavior varies considerably with species, cult...
Peppers (Capsicum annuum) are one of the most widely cultivated vegetable crops, with per capita consumption of bell and chile peppers being 11.4 and 7.7 pounds in 2017. Biostimulants are an emerging sustainable alternative to enhance plant health by...
Post-harvest sorting is essential for converting the biological variability of chili peppers into consistent commercial grades, efficient processing, and higher market value. Rapid advances in machine vision, multimodal sensing, deep learning, and in...
Quantification of free and bound carotenoids in pigmented fruit and vegetable matrices has previously been challenging due to carotenoid instability, degradation during extraction, and the prevalence of predominant carotenoid esters. The aim of the p...
Ribosomal RNA-depleted total RNAs from a sweet pepper plant (Capsicum annuum, labelled as N65) grown in western Slovakia and showing severe virus-like symptoms (chlorosis, mottling and deformation of leaf lamina) were subjected to high-throughput seq...
Pesticides are chemicals that are used to control pests such as insects, fungi, and weeds. Pesticide residues can remain on crops after application. Peppers are popular and versatile foods that are valued for their flavor, nutrition, and medicinal pr...
