Single‐Nucleus RNA Sequencing Identifies CREM as a Brake on Myofiber Hypertrophy in Chickens

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐nucleus RNA sequencing on 91 144 nuclei from postnatal chicken pectoralis major between fast‐growing broilers (FG) and slow‐growing layers (SG) identifies the transcriptional factor CREM as a novel brake of myofiber hypertrophy. Mechanistically, functional validation experiments confirm that CREM activates the promoter of JUN and CREM deletion ...

Decoupling Quasi‐Solid‐State Sulfur Conversion Mechanisms in Weakly Solvating and Locally High Concentration Electrolytes

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Weakly solvating CME–TTE and localized high‐concentration G2–TTE electrolytes redirect lithium–sulfur chemistry toward quasi‐solid‐state conversion through distinct coordination environments. Molecular dynamics and multimodal electrochemical and spectroscopic measurements show that G2–TTE couples multidentate solvent coordination, anion participation ...

Hemp Cultivation and Crop Diversification: Implications for Ecosystem Services in Kentucky

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the ecosystem benefits of expanding hemp cultivation by assessing its impact on crop diversity. Using scenario‐based simulations and fixed‐effect panel regressions with county‐level data in Kentucky, we find that increased hemp acreage tends to enhance crop diversity, improving water quality and bird diversity.

Migrating hoverflies as potential food source for co-migrating insectivorous birds

Royal Society Open Science
Most migrating birds must replenish energy reserves during migration. Food availability significantly influences migratory routes and can even force migrants to detour, but still little is known about potential co-migration between insectivorous birds ...

Do More Open Economies Export Less Diversely in Brazilian Agribusiness?

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper asks whether municipalities with a larger export‐to‐revenue ratio display a more concentrated bundle of exported goods in Brazilian agribusiness. Recent advances in export imputation for Brazilian municipalities allow for an analysis of the concentration profile of each municipality and its association with export openness.

Does Contract Farming Reduce Pesticide Use? Panel Data Evidence From Smallholder Farmers in China

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The inappropriate and excessive use of pesticides poses a major threat to human and ecosystem health in the agri‐food sector. While existing studies have examined the potential of contract farming to address this issue, most have focused on large‐scale farms and relied on small or transactional datasets, often leaving the role of crop‐specific
