1 day ago · But waiting for the humble potato to cook must be one of the frustrating experiences for any home chef. Thankfully, those days could soon be over, as British scientists are working on a ‘super ...
4 days ago · Potato is a globally significant crop, crucial for food security and nutrition. Assessing vital nutritional traits is pivotal for enhancing nutritional value. However, traditional wet lab methods for the screening of large germplasms are time- and resource-intensive. To address this challenge, we used near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) for rapid trait estimation in diverse potato ...
