Analysis of ripening-related gene expression in papaya using an Arabidopsis-based microarray (2012)
Journal Article
Fabi, J. P., Seymour, G. B., Graham, N. S., Broadley, M. R., May, S., Lajolo, F. M., …Oliveira do Nascimento, J. R. (in press). Analysis of ripening-related gene expression in papaya using an Arabidopsis-based microarray. BMC Plant Biology, 12, Article 242. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2229-12-242

Background Papaya (Carica papaya L.) is a commercially important crop that produces climacteric fruits with a soft and sweet pulp that contain a wide range of health promoting phytochemicals. Despite its importance, little is known about transcrip... Read More about Analysis of ripening-related gene expression in papaya using an Arabidopsis-based microarray.

Maize grain and soil surveys reveal suboptimal dietary selenium intake is widespread in Malawi (2011)
Journal Article
Chilimba, A. D. C., Young, S. D., Black, C. R., Rogerson, K. B., Ander, E. L., Watts, M. J., …Broadley, M. R. (2011). Maize grain and soil surveys reveal suboptimal dietary selenium intake is widespread in Malawi. Scientific Reports, 1(72), https://doi.org/10.1038/srep00072

Selenium is an essential element in human diets but the risk of suboptimal intake increases where food choices are narrow. Here we show that suboptimal dietary intake (i.e. 20–30 mg Se person21 d21) is widespread in Malawi, based on a spatial integra...
