Drivers of plant phenolic concentration across global drylands

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study advances the understanding of how biotic and abiotic stressors shape plant defence strategies in global drylands. The findings shed novel insights about how plant secondary metabolites and their associated functions shift in response to changes in climate and grazing pressure, two key global change drivers with significant implications for ...

catalogoUCsBR: A new R package and application for creating comprehensive plant species lists for Brazilian Protected Areas

Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 13, Issue 5, September-October 2025.
Abstract Premise The increased online publication of data associated with Brazilian botanical collections and biodiversity information systems has significantly improved access to information on plant species occurring in Brazil. However, information about Brazilian flora within Protected Areas is fragmented.

Natural variation of response to glyphosate in Sinapis alba (Brassicaceae): Physiological effects, shikimate accumulation and genetic mechanisms

Weed Research, Volume 65, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Abstract Glyphosate is the most widely used herbicide worldwide, and glyphosate‐resistant weeds have increased globally. Resistance mechanisms, including target‐site resistance (TSR) and non‐target‐site resistance (NTSR), are well documented, but their extent and importance are poorly understood among biotypes. This study examines the natural variation

Grazing Modulates the Multiscale Spatial Structure of Dryland Vegetation

Global Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 7, July 2025.
We studied how grazing pressure affects plant spatial patterns in drylands by using satellite images, field plant size and abundance data, and a mathematical model. We found that increasing grazing pressure has opposite effects on vegetation spatial structure to those of aridity, which might be explained by the fact that grazing decreases plant size ...

Plant‐based meat analogues marketed in Catalonia: evaluation of the nutritional profile

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 2, Issue 3, July 2024.
Abstract In later years, a growing trend is apparent of vegetarian or vegan diets attributable to a number of causes, among of others, consumers’ concern for animal welfare, climate change and, to a lesser degree, for health‐related issues. On a par to this growth, availability of meat analogues in the market has also been on the rise. In this context,

Plant‐based meat analogues marketed in Catalonia: analysis of contaminants, essential elements, microbiological and physicochemical status, dietary intake estimation and health risk assessment

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 2, Issue 3, July 2024.
Abstract The latest barometer of food safety in Catalonia conducted by the Catalan Food Safety Agency (ACSA for its initials in Catalan) in 2021 shows that 28.7% of the population consumes meat analogues (substitutes). The main reasons for consuming this type of food are animal welfare, followed by environmental and health reasons.

Meta‐analysis contrasting freshwater biodiversity in forests and oil palm plantations with and without riparian buffers

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 1, February 2024.
Abstract The expansion of oil palm plantations has led to land‐use change and deforestation in the tropics, which has affected biodiversity. Although the impacts of the crop on terrestrial biodiversity have been extensively reviewed, its effects on freshwater biodiversity remain relatively unexplored.

Medición de las vibraciones del motor utilizando mezclas de combustible de aceite vegetal reciclado y diesel. Un análisis matemático y computacional

Innova Research Journal, 2019
Las vibraciones del motor de combustión interna son un indicador de su estabilidad y condición mecánica. Las vibraciones del motor que resultan del movimiento alternativo y giratorio de sus partes también dependen de la calidad del proceso de combustión
