species are valuable edible ectomycorrhizal mushrooms, particularly in Asia. The partial hypogenous nature of fruit bodies in soil present challenges for sample collection and studying species distribution. In this study, we developed a PCR-based approach for identifying . Two universal primers (AUPF1/AUPR1 and AUPF3/AUPR3) and specific primers for . (AAF4/AAR4), . (AOF4/AOR4), and . (ASF2/ASR4) were designed based on the alignment of internal transcribed spacer sequences from various species. Primer verification was performed by generating amplicons from extracted DNA of fruit bodies and 130 soil samples collected from beneath various host plants of spp. These novel primers were efficient and precise in identifying species. Our results have implications for multi-sample assays for identification and investigations into species distribution through large-scale inventories.

Objectives: This study examined the association between adherence to the Dutch MIND diet (Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay, MIND-NL) and the Dutch dietary guidelines (DHD2015-index) with global cognitive function in older adults at risk of cognitive decline.
Design And Setting: A cross-sectional study was conducted using baseline data of the FINGER-NL trial.
Participants: A total of 1,135 older adults, aged 60-80 years, at risk for cognitive decline with complete dietary data and complete neuropsychological tests were included in the analyses.

Fruit and fruit-based products are a valuable source of essential nutrients, critical for food security, and drive economic productivity with minimal inputs. The significant rise in global demand for high-quality imported fruit and fruit-based products reflects a shift in consumer awareness and interest in the products origin and potential health-promoting bioactive compounds. Analytical techniques such as liquid chromatography, gas chromatography, inductively coupled plasma techniques, isotope-ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS), near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, visible near infrared (VIS-NIR) spectroscopy, hyperspectral imaging (HSI), mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, terahertz spectroscopy, dielectric spectroscopy, electronic nose (e-nose), and electronic tongue (e-tongue) coupled with supervised and unsupervised chemometrics can be employed for traceability, authentication, and bioactive profiling of fruit and fruit-based products.

The beneficial effects of dietary selenium in countering mercury toxicity are increasingly being explored. This information would be particularly useful in Se-deficient regions, such as parts of the Yunnan, where wild fungi are a popular and sustainable food source. Selenium and mercury were analysed in multiple specimens of unprocessed and stir-fried fruiting bodies of bolete fungi.

Dyslipidemia is considered a crucial risk factor for high risk of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases. Cumin and coriander seeds are well-known flavoring agents that contain nutraceutical properties and appear to have beneficial health effects. A study was therefore conducted to investigate the effects of cumin and coriander seeds on body weight, abdominal fat and lipid profile in rats.

Objectives: To elucidate the anti-aging effect of β-sitosterol (BS), an important component in the fruits of Miq., in and its regulatory effect on ETS-5 gene to modulate ferroptosis.
Methods: treated with 10 µg/mL BS were monitored for survival time and changes in body length, motility, and reproductive function.
