Summary: The sorption isotherms of spring grown peanut varieties J87 and TG37A were evaluated to predict suitable storage conditions, packaging material, and shelf-life. Results showed that the equilibrium moisture content (EMC) increased with increased water activity (a(w)) and isotherms of type II were observed. Aluminum packages were found to have the maximum predicted shelf-life.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of selenium application on various aspects of peanut plants, including photosynthetic pigments, oxidant metabolism, flavonoids biosynthesis, nodulation, and agronomic traits. The results showed that selenium fertilization increased the concentration of photosynthetic pigments, activity of antioxidant enzymes, as well as growth and yield of peanut plants. It also improved nitrogen assimilation efficiency and promoted the synthesis of certain compounds in the roots, leading to increased nodulation and transportation of nutrients to the leaves.

Summary: This study isolated and characterized six antioxidant peptides from peanut protein hydrolysates and evaluated their neuroprotection against oxidative damage in PC12 cells. The peptide PGCPST showed desirable antioxidant capacity and effectively increased cell viability and reduced apoptosis. RNA sequencing indicated that the neuroprotective effect of PGCPST was mediated via sphingolipid metabolism-related pathways.

Summary: In this study, two peanut varieties with pink and purple testa were used to analyze the correlation between multi-omics and miRNA-target gene. Several candidate genes related to anthocyanin biosynthesis were identified, as well as a novel gene related to hydroxycinnamoyl transferase biosynthesis. The results provide important reference for understanding the anthocyanin metabolism mechanism in peanut testa.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the genetic diversity of peanut accessions and identified several SNPs associated with leaf chlorophyll content. The study also found a significant correlation between a specific SNP and leaf chlorophyll content across seasons. The expression of the Arahy.SDG4EV gene was also significantly correlated with leaf chlorophyll content. These findings provide valuable information for assessing genetic variations in chlorophyll content and can be used for further genetic and genomic studies and breeding programs in peanuts.

Summary: This study identifies and verifies the existence of 40 GASA genes in cultivated peanuts using in silico analyses. It also investigates the potential regulatory roles of selected AhGASA genes in response to drought and salinity through biological experiments and expression analyses. The findings suggest that certain AhGASA genes are involved in the regulation of salt or drought stress.

Summary: The shelf life of peanuts is determined by their susceptibility to lipid oxidation. This study aimed to accelerate the oxidation process using UV radiation. Results showed that after 3 days of UV irradiation, the oxidation process had just started as indicated by the tocopherol content. Furthermore, the aldehydes content increased significantly after 3 and 7 days of UV irradiation.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of MeJA and NaCl treatments on resveratrol biosynthesis and physiology in germinated peanuts. The results showed that both treatments significantly promoted resveratrol biosynthesis and inhibited peanut sprout growth. This was accomplished by regulating the activities and gene expression levels of PAL, C4H, and 4CL.

Summary: The study found that the total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, and antioxidant capacity of peanuts decreased and then increased during germination, while the monomeric anthocyanin content first increased and then decreased. The germinated peanuts had lower TFC, DPPH, and FRAP values compared to non-germinated peanuts, but the total phenolic acids and trans-resveratrol content increased during germination.

Summary: This study aimed to resolve the identification of the peanut thrips, a key pest of Arachis hypogaea in South America. Based on morphological, biological, and molecular data, it was concluded that the historically applied name for this pest was incorrect and that it is actually an undescribed species. The peanut thrips, now identified as Enneothrips enigmaticus sp. n., is a major pest of Arachis hypogaea in South America, causing significant yield losses.

Summary: The study investigated the effect of the AhRS3 transgene on the expression of endogenous piceid biosynthesis genes in resveratrol-producing rice inbred lines. Results showed significant differences in resveratrol and piceid accumulation in seeds among different lines, as well as distinct expression patterns of UGT genes during seed development. These findings suggest that AhRS3 alters the expression pattern of UGT genes and key resveratrol biosynthesis genes in developing rice seeds.
