Genetic improvement of tomato by targeted control of fruit softening (2016)
Journal Article
Uluisik, S., Chapman, N. H., Smith, R., Poole, M., Adams, G., Gillis, R. B., …Seymour, G. B. (2016). Genetic improvement of tomato by targeted control of fruit softening. Nature Biotechnology, 34, 950-952. https://doi.org/10.1038/nbt.3602

Controlling the rate of softening to extend shelf life was a key target for researchers engineering genetically modified (GM) tomatoes in the 1990s, but only modest improvements were achieved. Hybrids grown nowadays contain 'non-ripening mutations' t... Read More about Genetic improvement of tomato by targeted control of fruit softening.

Determination of volatile marker compounds of common coffee roast defects (2016)
Journal Article
Yang, N., Liu, C., Liu, X., Kreuzfeldt Degn, T., Munchow, M., & Fisk, I. D. (2016). Determination of volatile marker compounds of common coffee roast defects. Food Chemistry, 211, 206-214. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.2016.04.124

Coffee beans from the same origin were roasted using six time-temperature profiles, in order to identify volatile aroma compounds associated with five common roast coffee defects (light, scorched, dark, baked and underdeveloped). Thirty-seven volat... Read More about Determination of volatile marker compounds of common coffee roast defects.
