DOI: 10.1002/ece3.11024
Abstract: Abstract Scoring the penetrance of heterozygotes in complex phenotypes, like colour pattern, is difficult and complicates the analysis of systems in which dominance is incomplete or evolving. The African Monarch (Danaus chrysippus) represents an example… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.71051
Abstract: ABSTRACT The maintenance of variation (i.e., different phenotypes) for heritable traits that are under selection, despite expectations of selection eroding variation and favouring only the fittest phenotype, represents an evolutionary paradox. Here, we studied variation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/em.22554
Abstract: The melanogenesis pathway regulates pigmentation through the synergic action of various genes. We are interested in analysing the genetic variations in the ASIP which determine eumelanin production in the dermis layer. In the present study,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.12606
Abstract: BACKGROUND In recent years, it has become increasingly evident that banana projects in Uganda needed to incorporate consumer preferences into the breeding pipelines to increase the acceptability of new cultivars. A trained panel used quantitative… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.13787
Abstract: BACKGROUND Identifying the best strawberries to produce colour stable nectars is a priority for the juice industry. Although riper strawberries produce nectars with better colour stability, variability between cultivars means that surface colour cannot be… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.8792
Abstract: BACKGROUND Due to the liberalisation of the European sugar market the pressure to improve factory utilisation is growing. Currently, beet and cane as sucrose sources are produced in isolation, according to geography. Co-production of sugar… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00217-019-03357-2
Abstract: Acrylamide is a toxic compound and a thermal marker of food, deriving from Maillard reaction. A recent European Regulation established mitigation measures and benchmark levels for its reduction in many products encouraging the use of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00344-024-11270-6
Abstract: Three apple cultivars with different peel colour and known ripening dynamics were examined throughout development and on-tree ripening to unravel how the hormonal crosstalk may influence colour changes. Our results indicate that the colour of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11222-016-9675-9
Abstract: In this article we propose a novel framework for the modelling of non-stationary multivariate lattice processes. Our approach extends the locally stationary wavelet paradigm into the multivariate two-dimensional setting. As such the framework we develop… read more here.
