Evaluating relationships between seed morphological traits and seed dormancy in Chenopodium quinoa Willd.
by Emma Mcginty, Evan Craine, Nathan Miller, Cristina Ocana-Gallegos, Edgar Spalding, Kevin Murphy, Amber Hauvermale
The motivation for writing and carrying out these scientific studies is for the benefit of the community. Quinoa, like many other cereals and pseudocereals, is experiencing a phenomenon called pre-harvest sprout (PHS). While dormancy screening and phenetic modeling approaches do not provide a direct solution to preventing PHS in quinoa, they do provide new tools for identifying dormant varieties as well as morphological variables contributing to seed dormancy. We hope this paper provides a solution and a forward direction for future work, as we need to understand this phenomenon and the mechanisms behind it.
Developing a definition of biofortification through the synthesis of food biofortification publications: a scoping review protocol
by Julianne Kellogg, Emily
Klarquist, Aichatou Waziri, David Luftig, Franck Carbonero, Patrick Solverson, Martine Perrigue, Destan Aytekin, Jenny Walton, Kim Garland-Campbell, Kevin M Murphy
The article is a protocol for a proposed scoping review. The proposed review would develop a definition of biofortification through the synthesis of food biofortification publications and would document the breadth of the research on biofortification.
