Summary: In this study, the gene expression differences between control and water-stressed potato plants were analyzed using RNAseq. The variety Agria showed a better stress response compared to Zorba, with more differentially expressed genes (DEGs) detected. The most highly expressed gene under drought conditions was Abscisic acid and environmental stress-inducible protein TAS14-like. Several metabolic pathways and cellular components were found to be affected by water stress, providing valuable information for breeding more tolerant potato varieties.

Summary: Research conducted whole-genome sequencing on three backcrossed potato varieties, identifying over 24,000 structural variants, with deletions being the most common type. The majority of these variants were found in non-coding regions, but a quarter of the genes exhibited chromosomal mutations.

Summary: Understanding the quality advantages of organically-grown early crop potatoes over conventionally-grown ones is important for meeting the increasing demand for environmentally friendly agricultural products. A field trial was conducted in Sicily to investigate the effects of cultivation systems on the physicochemical, nutritional, and sensorial traits of early potatoes. The results showed that organic cultivation had positive effects on the quality of potatoes.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the effects of irrigation water saving strategies on potato tuber growth and nutritional composition. The results showed that irrigation from tuber initiation up to 50% of tuber growth could improve the nutritional composition of tubers, while irrigation from 50% of tuber growth to the end of tuber growth had similar results to the dry control group.

Summary: The study found that 'Harley Blackwell' was the most P-efficient while 'Red LaSoda' was the least P-efficient. Holistic score analysis indicated that 'Harley Blackwell' had significantly greater biomass than 'Red LaSoda' in low P or TCP treatments. Additionally, 'Red LaSoda' was more efficient in P mobilization from TCP compared to the other two cultivars. The results highlight the success of using TCP solution for screening P-efficient potato varieties.

Summary: Potato is widely consumed in Tunisia and is a source of beneficial nutrients for human health. However, information about the functional quality of potato varieties grown in Tunisia is limited. This study focused on the effect of growing season on the functional quality of four potato genotypes and found that quality traits varied significantly among varieties and cropping seasons.

Summary: The study found that ammonium sulfate and ASN+DMPP at 75% of the recommended N rate could ensure marketable tuber yields equivalent to that observed at 100% of the recommended rate, while urea promoted greater tuber K and Mg concentrations. ASN+DMPP generally reduced starch and reducing sugars content and increased pH and protein content, but may lower tuber K and Mg concentrations compared to urea.

Summary: Freezing severely affects potato production. Understanding the pathways and metabolites that regulate potato's freezing tolerance is beneficial for cultivation and breeding purposes. In this study, it was found that Solanum acaule is more freezing tolerant compared to S. tuberosum. Through RNA-seq and metabolomics analysis, it was discovered that S. acaule activated different genes and enriched certain pathways, such as the hormone signaling pathway involving salicylic acid. Further analysis showed that the content of salicylic acid increased in S. acaule after exposure to cold conditions, leading to improved freezing tolerance. Additionally, the application of salicylic acid to potato enhanced freezing tolerance and increased the expression of HSFC1.

Summary: This study presents a reliable and efficient method for eradicating viruses in potatoes, which is more effective than current methods. Through testing various treatments, the combination of chemotherapy and cryotherapy, or consecutive chemotherapy, combined chemotherapy and thermotherapy, followed by cryotherapy, showed the best results in virus eradication. This improved method has the potential to produce virus-free planting material for the potato industry and facilitate the exchange of virus-free germplasm globally.

Summary: This study aimed to identify potato clones with high potential to become varieties resistant to late blight with high marketable tuber yield and other preferred traits. Five promising clones were selected based on evaluations by farmers, analysis of tuber yield, low glycoalkaloid content, and good organoleptic quality. These clones showed resistance to late blight, superior tuber yield, good organoleptic quality, and low glycoalkaloid content, making them suitable for release in similar environments.

Summary: Sol-gel chemistry is a unique method for constructing high-performance flexible sensors. This study successfully developed a novel naked eye sensor for fast detection of oxalate by incorporating indole inside the pores of sol-gel silica glasses. The sol-gel films exhibited excellent sensitivity, leaching resistance, and response time under optimized conditions. The prepared sensor showed a wide detection range and low detection limit for oxalate, and displayed good precision for both inter-day and intra-day measurements.

Summary: The quality of cassava can be measured using NIR spectroscopy to determine the starch content and dry matter content. A model developed from different scanning methods and surface conditions was compared, and the accuracy of the model using selected wavelengths was assessed. The prediction accuracy was found to depend on the scanning method, with the horizontal spectra obtaining the highest accuracy. The CARS-PLSR method was considered appropriate for predicting starch content, and the BOSS-PLSR method for predicting dry matter content.

Summary: The production, marketing and consumption of grape juices have been constantly increasing in recent years due to consumers' search for products with proven health benefits. Brazilian data shows that grape juice produced from V. labrusca L. and hybrids has a lower soluble solids content, with more than half of the production falling between 14 and 16 degrees Brix. This suggests the need to re-discuss the 16 degrees Brix limit established by CXS 247-2005.

Summary: This study analyzed the structural composition of eight-year-old Syrah red wines produced using different winemaking technologies. The results showed that the structural features of polymeric polyphenols, including the proportions of proanthocyanidins, amino acids, phenolic acids, and anthocyanins, as well as the mean degree of polymerization, varied significantly depending on the winemaking technology used. These findings are important for winemakers to control the polymeric polyphenol composition of wines.

Summary: Turkey's geographical location and climate conditions are suitable for growing various fruit species, with apricots being the most famous. Local and foreign varieties differ significantly in terms of soluble solids and acid content. The low taste values in foreign varieties are mainly due to their genotypic structure and early harvest. There are also differences in the main sugars and acid content among different apricot varieties.
