Resources for plant‐based food: Estimating resource use to meet the requirements of urban and peri‐urban diets

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2023., 2023
A method to estimate resource use by crop systems to meet food needs is proposed. PLATE is a proxy of the per capita intake of energy‐ and nutrient‐rich vegetables. Water, energy, and area use of two urban systems (open field and plant factories with artificial lighting) are compared. The method can support decisions at farm level and in urban‐regional

The consequences of density‐dependent individual growth for sustainable harvesting and management of fish stocks

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 427-438, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Density dependence is likely to act as a regulatory mechanism in fish stocks that are recovering from overfishing. In general, density dependence in fish stocks is assumed to only occur in reproduction and early life stages and is therefore usually modelled as a stock‐recruitment relationship.

Assessment of genetically modified soybean 40‐3‐2 for renewal authorisation under Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003 (application EFSA‐GMO‐RX‐023)

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 20, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Following the submission of application EFSA‐GMO‐RX‐023 under Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003 from Bayer Agriculture BV on behalf of Bayer CropScience LP, the Panel on Genetically Modified Organisms of the European Food Safety Authority was asked to deliver a scientific risk assessment on the data submitted in the context of the renewal of ...

Crystal structure of a family VIII β‐lactamase fold hydrolase reveals the molecular mechanism for its broad substrate scope

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 289, Issue 21, Page 6714-6730, November 2022., 2022
We present a comprehensive biochemical and structural study of a family VIII ester hydrolase with a broad and unusual substrate profile, including acyltransferase activities. A wide catalytic cavity accepts an ample set of different esters, some being relevant to plastic and mycotoxin degradation.

Mortality of the oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis, during pupation in insect pest suppressive soils

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 170, Issue 7, Page 565-572, July 2022., 2022
Oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Diptera: Tephritidae), is an important worldwide crop pest. Little is known about the role of soil‐entomopathogens in mortality during pupation. We assessed the effects of standard potting soil, sterilized sand, and soil amended with beneficials (such as four fungal taxa and a nematode), separately and combined.

Strength and consistency of density dependence in marine fish productivity

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 23, Issue 4, Page 812-828, July 2022., 2022
Abstract The correct prediction of the shape and strength of density dependence in productivity is key to predicting future stock development and providing the best possible long‐term fisheries management advice. Here, we identify unbiased estimators of the relationship between somatic growth, recruitment and density, and apply these to 80 stocks in ...

How water‐soluble saccharides drive the metabolism of lactic acid bacteria during fermentation of brewers' spent grain

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 15, Issue 3, Page 915-930, March 2022., 2022
Metabolic effect of short‐term exposures of lactic acid bacteria to environmental pressure induced by brewers' spent grain (BSG)‐derived saccharides. Summary We proposed a novel phenomic approach to track the effect of short‐term exposures of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides to environmental pressure induced by brewers'

Interdependence between lignocellulosic biomasses, enzymatic hydrolysis and yeast cell factories in biorefineries

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 15, Issue 3, Page 985-995, March 2022., 2022
In this review the main highlighted topics are the interdependence of the processing of the lignocellulosic biomasses, predominantly by enzymes, and the selection of microbial strains. Because there are good data available, yeast(s) and biofuels were used as models, but the concepts are applicable to other microbes and other products.

Agricultural commodity price dynamics and their determinants: A comprehensive econometric approach

open access: yesJournal of Forecasting, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 1245-1273, November 2021., 2021
Abstract We present a comprehensive modelling framework aimed at quantifying the response of agricultural commodity prices to changes in their potential determinants. The problem of model uncertainty is assessed explicitly by concentrating on specification selection based on the quality of short‐term out‐of‐sample forecasts (1 to 12 months ahead) for ...
