The genus Physalis includes species used for food, medicinal and artisanal purposes. The wild tomato (Physalis angulata L.), which is common in the mixed maize cultivation called "the milpa", is cultivated in some localities of Jalisco because of its importance in the preparation of sauces. It is hypothesized that the management of planting density and fertilization application can improve the yield of this tomato. The objective of this study was to evaluate the leaf area and yield of P. angulata L. as a function of slow-release urea doses and planting densities, under open-field rainfed conditions. Nine treatments were evaluated, resulting from the combination of three planting densities and three fertilizer doses. The experimental design was randomized complete blocks with factorial arrangement. The data were analyzed with analysis of variance and the means of the treatments were compared with Tukey's test (p = 0.05). The relationship between yield and study variables was estimated with simple linear regressions. The results indicated that with 2.5 plants m-2 the highest yield was obtained (6.4 Mg ha-1); while with 140 units of slow-release urea the average yield was 5.76 Mg ha-1. The interaction effect showed that with densities of 2.0 and 2.5 plants m-2 and with 120 kg of slow-release urea, the highest fruit yields were obtained, 6.44 and 6.87 Mg ha-1. For each unit increase in the variables leaf area, leaf area index, number of fruits per plant and fruit weight per plant, fruit yield increased as well. The yield of P. angulata responded differently to planting densities and slow-release urea doses. The best yield could be obtained with the planting density of 2.5 plants m-2 and with the application of 30.4 g m-2 slow-release urea. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the present work, the biosynthesis of titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles from extracts of Stevia rebaudiana leaves in semipolar media is shown. The reaction products were characterized by Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Conversion of the precursor salt to the TiO2 compound was manifested by changes in the functional groups of the products. Thermal characterization showed residual contents greater than 40 %, indicating the formation of a thermally stable compound. Likewise, the presence of crystalline phases of TiO2 was evidenced. Therefore, it was considered that the phenolic compounds present in the extracts were used as reducing agents of the titanium precursor salt to obtain the TiO2 nanoparticles. However, the formation of TiO2 also depended on the extraction medium of Stevia rebaudiana. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Legumes are a traditional, sustainable and nutritious food for consumption due to their high protein content. Legume flour can be used to make food products or partially replace other flours, increasing their nutritional value, however they can modify the techno-functional and sensory properties, impacting the level of liking and acceptance. Nixtamalized corn tortillas were formulated with lentil (Lens culinaris), chickpea (Cicer arietinum) and Faba bean (Faba vicia L.) flour at 5, 10 and 15%. In a panel made up of 20 individuals using a 9-point hedonic scale, the general acceptance and level of liking of the descriptors color, smell, taste, texture and rollability were determined. The results were analyzed by Tukey's test with a significance of (P<0.05), observing that the greatest acceptance was for corn/lentil and corn/chickpea tortillas at 15% and corn/fava bean 5%, compared to corn/lentil tortillas. (15%) got the least acceptance. The level of liking for each descriptor was significantly correlated with the level of acceptance and the rollability and flavor of the tortilla were the main descriptors influencing the level of acceptance [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
