Sorbitol-enhanced butyric acid production in mixed-culture anaerobic fermentation of potato peel waste.

Journal of environmental management | 2026-Apr-22

This study investigates the use of potato peel waste as a feedstock for the production of bio-based butyric acid through mixed-culture fermentation. The research demonstrates that sorbitol supplementation enhances butyric acid yields and selectivity by increasing NADH levels and promoting specific microbial pathways and functional microorganisms.

Phytochemical profile, biological activities, and biotic stress factors of Solanumtuberosum.

Plant physiology and biochemistry : PPB | 2026-Apr-20

This review examines the phytochemical composition and biological activities of Solanum tuberosum, highlighting compounds like glycoalkaloids and anthocyanins with antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. It also discusses major biotic stress factors and the role of phenylpropanoid-derived compounds in potato plant immunity and defense mechanisms.

Trichothecosides A-D, antifungal sesquiterpene mannopyranosides from potato-associated fungus Trichothecium crotocinigenum.

Fitoterapia | 2026-Apr-21

This study identifies four new sesquiterpene glycosides from the potato-associated fungus Trichothecium crotocinigenum. One compound demonstrates antifungal activity against major potato pathogens Rhizoctonia solani and Fusarium oxysporum, suggesting its potential as a fungicide for potato disease control.

Development of a qualitative detection method for the pSIM1278 construct in genetically modified potato using real-time PCR.

GM crops & food | 2026-Dec-31

This study describes the development of a real-time PCR method to detect the pSIM1278 genetic construct used in Innate® genetically modified potatoes. The assay enables simultaneous screening of multiple GM potato events (E12, X17, Y9, and Z6) to support the monitoring and labeling of potato-derived food products.

Gene Flow and Hybridization Potential Between GM/NGT Crops and Conventional Varieties or Wild Relatives: A Scoping Literature Review with Emphasis on Oilseed Rape (Brassica napus L.) and Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.).

Biotech (Basel (Switzerland)) | 2026-Apr-08

This scoping review examines the potential for gene flow and hybridization between genetically modified (GM) or new genomic technique (NGT) potatoes and their wild relatives or conventional varieties. It highlights the environmental risk assessment challenges associated with these technologies, particularly regarding contamination risks in potato diversity centers.
