The transformation of agricultural waste into activated carbon represents an attractive approach as new and alternative source, but also as a reduction of pollution associated to the degradation of precursors. The organic residues sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum) bagasse-shell, orange (Citrus sinensis) peel-bagasse, and eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus) leaves, obtained from a biodrying process were transformed into activated carbons using phosphoric acid as activating agent. The resulting materials were physicochemically characterized and after that, carbonaceous electrodes were prepared to test the feasibility of using them in a discoloration electro-Fenton wastewater treatment process. Orange peel-bagasse biodried precursor transformed into activated carbon showed the highest efficiency when used as the modifier in a carbon paste electrode due to its highest porosity, electroactive area (24.9x10-2 cm2), and roughness (1.21 a.u.), also to its chemical affinity for anionic molecules. These properties, in addition to the capability of electro-sorb iron ions on the surface during the Fenton reaction, allowed a 44 % methyl orange discoloration efficiency. Sugarcane bagasse-peel and eucalyptus leaves biodried residues were also evaluated with efficiencies under 30 %, mainly attributed to intrinsic composition of the precursor materials. Resumen.

Light is an essential environmental factor that regulates important plant processes, including photosynthesis, photoprotection, and the accumulation of pigments such as chlorophylls and carotenoids. Conversely, the absence of light initiates the etiolation phenomenon, characterized by a decrease in photosynthetic and photoprotective pigments. In contrast, albinism is a rare variant characterized by the absence of chloroplasts, chlorophyll, and other pigments, even in the presence of light. Albinism may occur spontaneously in plant tissue culture (PTC) and is considered an unexplored phenotypic variant. During micropropagation of Agave angustifolia Haw., two somaclonal variants emerged from green plantlets: albino and variegated. We demonstrate that low-intensity light exposure triggers greener pigmentation in albino plantlets accompanied by an increase in global DNA methylation levels. Our findings suggest the possibility of chloroplast biogenesis under low-intensity light and provide insight into the potential role of DNA methylation in regulating plant responses to light intensity and highlight the importance of studying the effects of different light conditions on plant development and physiology.\u0000 \u0000Resumen.

Grains of six wheat genotypes were used in this study, cultivated in the Yaqui Valley, Sonora, in December 2020 and January and October 2021. The flour was obtained from whole grains (40 gr of each genotype and each sowing date). Proximal analyses were done following AACC and AOAC methods. Starch content was determined using a commercial kit from Megazyme. Changes in size, shape, and colour were observed in all the seeds progeny of plants under heat stress during the vegetative and reproductive stages. Heat stress during the reproductive stage reduced the thousand-grain weight, total solids, and protein content in the progeny grains but increased the percentage of moisture, ash, total starch, and germination index. Heat stress during the vegetative stage reduced total solids content and increased thousand-grain weight, moisture, and total starch in the progeny grains. The germination index in seeds from plants subjected to heat stress during the reproductive stage was associated with total starch content and a trend to decrease total protein.
