Determinants of Perceived Public Value in PPPs for Urban Transport in Developing Contexts: An Ex‐Ante Structural Analysis of Guadalajara Light Rail Line 4

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Public–private partnerships (PPPs) are widely used to deliver urban rail in developing contexts, although their contribution to public value remains contested. This paper offers an ex‐ante analysis of the determinants of perceived public value, using Mexico's Guadalajara Light Rail Line 4 as an illustrative case.

Alternative to bran and pollard

, 1954
Bran and pollard are excellent foodstuffs for inclusion in the rations fed to dairy cows. There is no justification however, for the assumption that these mill offals are essential for efficient milk production. For many years bran was readily obtainable

Conflict Social Networks of Critically Endangered Alpine Musk Deer in Captivity and Relationships With Fecal Steroid Hormones 圈养极危物种马麝的冲突社交网络及其与粪便类固醇激素的关联

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.
We conducted a grouping study on 52 adult musk deer to investigate whether group sex composition modulates aggressive behavior and stress response in captive musk deer. We found that the conflict interactions of all‐male groups were significantly more than those of mixed groups, and compared with the mixed groups, the conflict interactions of all‐male ...

Impact of Two High‐Fiber Dietary Transitions on Fecal Consistency and Microbiota Composition in Captive Dromedary Camels (Camelus dromedarius) With Chronic Recurrent Diarrhea: A Pilot Study

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
High‐fiber dietary interventions reshaped the gut microbiota of captive dromedaries with chronic recurrent diarrhea, but responses varied among individuals. Despite taxonomic shifts, microbial metabolic functions remained remarkably stable, supporting the resilience of the dromedary gut ecosystem and the use of fiber‐based dietary management.

HOST MATTER: Parasite infection drives chemical reconfiguration of decomposing host and shapes insect behavioural responses

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Host–parasite interactions shape ecosystems by driving species dynamics, yet their influence is typically considered in terms of host mortality rather than the chemical environments generated during infection and decomposition.

Intellectual Property Restitution

The Modern Law Review, EarlyView.
In Europe, open GLAM movements and cultural restitution reforms are overlooking a crucial aspect that should not be underestimated: what should happen to the archival materials, digital collections and intellectual property that are indelibly linked to cultural property.

Vertical Integration and Coordination in Modernising Staple Food Value Chains: Evidence From Myanmar's Rice Sector

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Increased vertical integration and coordination are defining features of transforming and modernising agricultural value chains in low‐ and middle‐income countries, with important implications for market efficiency and farm‐level transformation.

Exploring the potential of using male‐killing endosymbionts to induce female‐biased insect populations for enhanced biomass production

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Overview of the mindset and long‐term goals with the approach suggested in this study. We provide a first proof of concept that male‐killing endosymbionts can be used to establish female biased populations with higher production efficiency than populations with a 50/50 sex ratio. This biological tool can have marked positive impact on future commercial
