A high-throughput lipid profiling platform adopting an accurate quantification strategy was built based on Q-Orbitrap mass spectrometry. Lipid components of fresh walnut during postharvest storage were determined, and the fatty acid distributions in triacylglycerol and polar lipids were also characterized. A total of 554 individual lipids in fresh walnut were mainly glycerolipids (56.7%), glycerophospholipids (32.4%), and sphingolipids (11%). With the progress of postharvest storage, 16 lipid subclasses in the stored walnut sample were significantly degraded, in which 34 lipids changed significantly between the fresh and stored groups. The sphingolipid metabolism, glycerolipid metabolism, and linoleic acid metabolism pathways were significantly enriched. The oxidation and degradation mechanism of linoleic acid in walnut kernel during postharvest storage was proposed. The established lipidomics platform can supply reliable and traceable lipid profiling data, help to improve the understanding of lipid degradation in fresh walnut, and offer a framework for analyzing lipid metabolisms in other tree nuts.

Effects of leaf scorch on photosynthetic characteristics, fruit yield, and quality of walnuts.

Physiol Mol Biol Plants

December 2024

College of Forestry and Landscape Architecture, Xinjiang Agricultural University, Xinjiang, 830052 China.

The consequences of walnut ( L.) leaf scorch (WLS) were studied using the cultivated varieties, Wen185 ( 'Wen 185') and Xinxin2 ( 'Xinxin2') in the Aksu region, Xinjiang, China. Photosynthetic parameters and indoor chemical analysis were used to determine the variations in photosynthetic characteristics, osmotic regulatory substances, antioxidant enzyme activities, and changes in fruit yield and quality between diseased and healthy leaves.

Inactivation of Escherichia coli O157:H7 in Dairy Manure Compost with Alkaline Walnut Hull Biochar.

U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, Eastern Regional Research Center, 600 East Mermaid Lane, Wyndmoor, PA 19038-8551.

Biochar has been used to accelerate heating profiles during composting by increasing oxygenation, which could also reduce microbial pathogens. However, the antimicrobial inactivation of foodborne pathogens in compost, by amending with biochar without increased heating profiles, has not been evaluated. In this study, we examined the ability of biochar to inactivate E.

The current research work aimed to evaluate the cryptic walnut genotypes of the Hazara region in Pakistan by using DNA barcoding and phylogenetic analysis. Based on morphological traits such as nut size, nut shape, and the number of leaflets, five genotypes were chosen and samples were collected for the current study. For molecular analysis, gDNA was isolated from the fresh leaves, and the five most effective angiosperm-specific markers, ITS2, , , , and , were utilized.

Anthraquinone residues in tea have been linked to atmospheric deposition. However, anthraquinones can also be biosynthesized in plants. In this work, we report on a sample-driven and GC-MS/MS-based analytical strategy to differentiate between endogenous and exogenous anthraquinones in dried walnut () leaves.
