Abstract: Cette revue de litterature porte sur les effets osmotiques et ioniques de la conductivite electrique (CE) de la solution nutritive et de ses liens avec les facteurs climatiques et culturaux sur le rendement et la qualite de la tomate de serre L'ajustement de la salinite de la solution nutritive permet aux producteurs de modifier la disponibilite en eau pour la plante de facon a controler la qualite des fruits Cependant, des salinites elevees affectent le rendement vendable Sous une haute CE, le calibre des fruits est inversement relie a la CE alors que le contenu en matiere seche des fruits augmente lineairement avec la CE Le taux de reduction du rendement varie selon les interactions entre la CE et les cultivars, les facteurs environnementaux, la composition de la solution nutritive, et la gestion de la culture Selon differentes etudes et conditions de croissance des plants, une CE plus elevee que 23-51 mScm -1 entraine une baisse de rendement alors qu'une salinite de 35-90 mScm -1 ameliore la qualite des fruits La manipulation du climat de la serre (humidite relative, temperature, niveau de CO 2 ambiant) peuvent compenser les effets negatifs engendres par de hautes salinites sur le rendement et la qualite des fruits L'intensite lumineuse recue par la plante affecte directement la quantite de photoassimilats disponibles pour les fruits, accroit leur rapport sucre: acide, influence les taux de transpiration et d'absorption de l'eau par les plants, lesquels influencent la CE de la zone radiculaire L'accroissement de la salinite par l'ajout de NaCl reduit le contenu en acides titrables, en potassium et en azote des fruits et augmente leur contenu en sodium Le NaCl accroit la qualite gustative des fruits et la perception d'une saveur plus sucree Selon la composition de la solution nutritive, des deficiences ou toxicites nutritionnelles peuvent survenir suite a une predominance d'ions specifiques ou a une competition parmi les cations et les anions De facon a obtenir des rendements eleves de tres grande qualite tout au long de la saison de production, un equilibre entre les elements nutritifs de la rhizosphere doit etre preserve pour chacun des stades de croissance Cet article presente plusieurs strategies de gestion de la CE afin d'ameliorer la qualite de la tomate de serre

TL;DR: Feed programs that restrict feed amount and time available allow animals to become hungry, whereas restricted feeding space increases competition among group mates, and both situations lead to fewer and larger meals eaten at a faster rate, and consequently, greater risk of ruminal acidosis.

TL;DR: In this article, a combination of annealing (ANN) and heat-moisture treatment (HMT) was applied to pea, lentil and navy bean starches to investigate the impact of single and dual modifications (ANN-HMT and HMT-ANN) on the crystalline structure, thermal properties, and the amounts of resistant starch (RS) were investigated.

TL;DR: There remains a significant research gap spanning the range from lead chemical discovery through process development and optimization in order to better understand the full potential of the Rhus genus as part of global green technology based on bioproducts and bioprocesses research programs.
Abstract: Sumac is the common name for a genus (Rhus) that contains over 250 individual species of flowering plants in the family Anacardiaceae. These plants are found in temperate and tropical regions worldwide, often grow in areas of marginal agricultural capacity, and have a long history of use by indigenous people for medicinal and other uses. The research efforts on sumac extracts to date indicate a promising potential for this plant family to provide renewable bioproducts with the following reported desirable bioactivities: antifibrogenic, antifungal, antiinflammatory, antimalarial, antimicrobial, antimutagenic, antioxidant, antithrombin, antitumorigenic, antiviral, cytotoxic, hypoglycaemic, and leukopenic. As well, the bioactive components can be extracted from the plant material using environmentally benign solvents that allow for both food and industrial end-uses. The favorable worldwide distribution of sumac also suggests that desirable bioproducts may be obtained at the source, with minimal transportation requirements from the source through processing to the end consumer. However, previous work has focussed in just a few members of this large plant family. In addition, not all of the species studied to date have been fully characterized for potential bioactive components and bioactivities. Thus, there remains a significant research gap spanning the range from lead chemical discovery through process development and optimization in order to better understand the full potential of the Rhus genus as part of global green technology based on bioproducts and bioprocesses research programs.
