From waste to resource: Garlic peel‐derived proteases (Allium sativum) for nematode control

open access: yesEnvironmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract This study aimed to prepare a protease‐rich extract from garlic peel (Allium sativum) and evaluate its nematicidal potential. The garlic peel was crushed, suspended in distilled water, and the obtained extract was subjected to filtration, centrifugation, and dialysis to concentrate the proteases. The nematicidal activity was tested in vitro on

Protecting threatened species and music traditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Musical instruments are indispensable to music traditions worldwide and often made from natural materials derived from species that are increasingly endangered. International trade threatens the survival of some of these species, as addressed by their inclusion in the UN Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora ...

Integrating climate change, biological invasions, and infectious wildlife diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Climate change is likely to affect infectious diseases that are facilitated by biological invasions, with repercussions for wildlife conservation and zoonotic risks. Current invasion management and policy are underprepared for the future risks associated with such invasion‐related wildlife diseases. By considering evidence from bioclimatology, invasion

A multi‐scale approach to integrating rewilding into agricultural landscapes

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Finding ways to improve the sustainability of modern agriculture by recovering nature in agricultural landscapes is critical for conserving biodiversity and enhancing human well‐being. Rewilding principles could be applied to any type of landscape, which raises the possibility of employing rewilding approaches in agricultural areas while maintaining ...

Resist!: Sustaining forest carbon sequestration and wood production after insect disturbance

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Disturbances from insect pests threaten ecologically and economically important goods and services supplied by forests, including wood production and carbon sequestration. We highlight the factors that influence these services’ resistance, a term quantifying the initial response to disturbance.
