Risk assessment of carbofuran residues in fruits and vegetables at the Chinese market: A 7-year survey
Ecotoxicol Environ Saf. 2022 May 25;239:113667. doi: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2022.113667. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe United Nations designated 2021 as the International Year of Fruits and Vegetables (IYFV), with the goal of educating populations regarding the role of such produce in nutrition, food safety, and overall health. Carbofuran is a highly toxic insecticide and nematocide, and its use to treat fruit trees, vegetables, tea, and medicinal herbs is thus prohibited. However, carbofuran residues are still detectable via LC-Q-TOF/MS in fruit and vegetable samples collected from 138 sites in 31 regions. In the present st...

Efficient genetic transformation and CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing of watermelon assisted by genes encoding developmental regulators
J Zhejiang Univ Sci B. 2022 Apr 15;23(4):339-344. doi: 10.1631/jzus.B2200119.ABSTRACTCucurbitaceae is an important family of flowering plants containing multiple species of important food plants, such as melons, cucumbers, squashes, and pumpkins. However, a highly efficient genetic transformation system has not been established for most of these species (Nanasato and Tabei, 2020). Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus), an economically important and globally cultivated fruit crop, is a model species for fruit quality research due to its rich diversity of fruit size, shape, flavor, aroma, texture, peel and flesh color, and nutritio...

Transcriptome profiling of genes associated with fruit firmness in the melon variety 'Baogua' ( < em > Cucumis melo < /em > ssp. < em > agrestis < /em > Jeffrey)
This study aimed to identify the key genes associated with the firmness of BG fruit sampled at 14 and 28 days after pollination (dap) via transcriptome sequencing. A total of 1113 up-regulated and 2224 down-regulated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified. The main Gene Ontology terms assigned to the DEGs were phosphotransferase activity, alcohol group as acceptor, protein phosphorylation, and protein kinase activity. The enriched KEGG pathways involving the DEGs were starch and sucrose metabolism, diterpenoid biosynthesis, plant hormone signal transduction, and MAPK signaling pathway-plant. In addition, qRT...
