Characterization of a novel psyllid-transmitted waikavirus in carrots
Virus Res. 2023 Aug 10;335:199192. doi: 10.1016/j.virusres.2023.199192. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCarrots collected from the Western Negev region in Israel during the winter of 2019 showed disease symptoms of chlorosis, leaf curling, a loss of apical dominance, and multiple lateral roots that were not associated with known pathogens of the carrot yellows disease. Symptomatic carrots were studied for a possible involvement of plant viruses in disease manifestations using high throughput sequencing analyses. The results revealed the presence of a waikavirus, sharing a ∼70% nucleotide sequence identity with Waikavirus g...

Comparing the antioxidant properties and volatile compounds of carrot-orange juice blend processed through varied chemical, pasteurization and ultrasound conditions
Ultrason Sonochem. 2023 Jul 26;98:106534. doi: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2023.106534. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTUltrasound technique is one of the green technologies that is being utilized widely for varying food processes. Our aim in this study was to carry out ultrasonication, pasteurization and chemical preservation (Potassium metabisulfite) techniques on a carrot-orange juice blend. Additionally, the effect of these treatments on the storage period of about 21 days was also determined. The study displayed an array of results under the effect of different treatments. Throughout the storage period of 21 days' significant re...

< em > Lactiplantibacillus carotarum < /em > AMBF275 < sup > T < /sup > sp. nov. isolated from carrot juice fermentation
Int J Syst Evol Microbiol. 2023 Jul;73(7). doi: 10.1099/ijsem.0.005976.ABSTRACTA novel strain of the genus Lactiplantibacillus, named AMBF275T, was isolated from fermented carrot juice, a salted fermented beverage dominated by lactic acid bacteria. The results of phylogenetic analysis indicated that the 16S rRNA gene of AMBF275T is most similar to the 16S rRNA gene of Lactiplantibacillus garii FI11369T with a sequence similarity of 99.4 %. However, a genome-wide comparison using average nucleotide identity (ANI) revealed that AMBF275T and L. garii FI11369T have an ANI of only 82.35 %. ANI values between AMBF275T and other ...
