      Trivedi, Priyanka; Nguyen, Nga; Klavins, Linards; Kviesis, Jorens; Heinonen, Esa; Remes, Janne; Jokipii-Lukkari, Soile; Klavins, Maris; Karppinen, Katja; Jaakola, Laura; Häggman, Hely (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-03-09)
      In this study, cuticular wax load, its chemical composition, and biosynthesis, was studied during development of wild type (WT) bilberry fruit and its natural glossy type (GT) mutant. GT fruit cuticular wax load was ...
    • Compositional and morphological analyses of wax in northern wild berry species 

      Trivedi, Priyanka; Karppinen, Katja; Klavins, Linards; Kviesis, Jorens; Sundqvist, Petri; Nguyen, Nga; Heinonen, Esa; Klavins, Maris; Jaakola, Laura; Väänänen, Juha; Remes, Janne; Häggman, Hely (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-05-21)
      Aerial surfaces of plants are covered by a waxy cuticle protecting plants from excessive water loss and UV light. In the present study, composition and morphology of cuticular waxes of northern wild berry species bilberry ...
    • Dissecting the impact of environment, season and genotype on blackcurrant fruit quality traits. 

      Pott, D. M.; Duran-Soria, S.; Allwood, J. W.; Pont, S.; Gordon, S. L.; Jennings, N.; Austin, C.; Stewart, D.; Brennan, R. M.; Masny, A.; Sønsteby, Anita; Krüger, Erika; Jarret, D.; Vallarino, J. G.; Usadel, B.; Osorio, S. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-10-08)
      This work aims to determine the effect of genotype x environment (GxE) interaction that influence blackcurrant (Ribes nigrum) fruit quality. We applied metabolomics-driven analysis on fruits from four cultivars grown in ...
    • Rapid and accurate determination of protein content in North Atlantic seaweed by NIR and FTIR spectroscopies 

      Niemi, Calle; Mols Mortensen, Agnes; Rautenberger, Ralf; Matsson, Sanna; Gorzsás, András; Gentili, Francesco G. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-10-21)
      Seaweed is considered a potentially sustainable source of protein for human consumption, and rapid, accurate methods for determining seaweed protein contents are needed. Seaweeds contain substances which interfere with ...
