Biscuit bran (BB) is a co-product with worldwide distribution, with Brazil as the second largest cookie producer in the world with 1,157,051 tons. We evaluate the impact of completely replacing corn with BB on the characteristics and morphometry of c...
Discriminating different cultivars of maca powder (MP) and detecting their authenticity after adulteration with potent adulterants such as maize and soy flour is a challenge that has not been studied with non-invasive techniques such as near infrared...
The difficulty of collecting maize leaf lesion characteristics in an environment that undergoes frequent changes, suffers varying illumination from lighting sources, and is influenced by a variety of other factors makes detecting diseases in maize le...

Flash floods in mountainous regions like the Himalayas are considered to be common natural calamities. Their consequences often are more dangerous than any flood event in the plains. These hazards not only put human lives at threat but also cause eco...
Elucidating the relationship between non-coding regulatory element sequences and gene expression is crucial for understanding gene regulation and genetic variation. We explored this link with the training of interpretable deep learning models predict...
Computer vision approaches to analyze plant disease data can be both faster and more reliable than traditional, manual methods. However, the requirement of manually annotating training data for the majority of machine learning applications can presen...

This study investigates the challenges encountered in utilizing portable near-infrared (NIR) spectrometers in agriculture, specifically in developing predictive models with high accuracy and robust generalization abilities despite limited spectral re...
The mutant matrilineal (mtl) gene encoding patatin-like phospholipase activity is involved in in-vivo maternal haploid induction in maize. Doubling of chromosomes in haploids by colchicine treatment leads to complete fixation of inbreds in just one g...
