Special Issue: Food Sustainability, the Food System, and Alaskans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
[Geography] -- The Alaska Food Policy Council: Everyone knows that food is important, but our dependence upon Outside for the stuff of life has finally begun to seem, well, just a little discomfiting to Alaska's policymakers.

Agriculture industrielle et agriculture industrialisée (Industrial agriculture and industrialized agriculture)

open access: yesBulletin de l'Association de géographes français, 1988
Résumé. - De nombreuses exploitations agricoles sont aujourd'hui considérées comme «industrielles». L'article dénonce remploi abusif de ce qualificatif qui devrait être réservé à certains cas exceptionnels, et établit la distinction entre une agriculture «industrielle » (ayant les caractères de l'industrie) et une agriculture «industrialisée » (qui ...

Nuclear pore links Fob1‐dependent rDNA damage relocation to lifespan control

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Damaged rDNA accumulates at a specific perinuclear interface that couples nucleolar escape with nuclear envelope association. Nuclear pores at this site help inhibit Fob1‐induced rDNA instability. This spatial organization of damage handling supports a functional link between nuclear architecture, rDNA stability, and replicative lifespan in yeast.

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting
