Aligning Transnational due Diligence: The EU Deforestation Regulation and Brazil's Fragmented Beef Governance

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transnational due diligence regulations, such as the European Union Regulation on Deforestation‐Free Products (EUDR), are reshaping sustainability governance by transforming voluntary norms into binding global rules. Yet, their effectiveness depends on how well they align with domestic governance systems and on the power asymmetries that ...

Potential vs. Realized Large Carnivore Density: The Influence of Livestock on Carnivore Carrying Capacity Estimation

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
In an unfenced mixed‐use savanna landscape in Namibia, we compared realized densities of leopards and cheetahs estimated using spatial capture–recapture models with prey‐based carrying capacity predictions. Leopard densities exceeded predictions based on wild prey alone but closely matched livestock‐supplemented models, suggesting that vulnerable ...

IgE‐Binding Bacterial Components Not Yet Documented in the Allergen Databases and Their Allergenic Mechanisms: An EAACI Position Paper

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Among bacteria that are associated with the development and/or exacerbation of allergic/atopic diseases, several have been described to produce IgE‐binding components. However, only one bacterial protein, Bac s 1, is currently listed in the official database of the World Health Organization/International Union of Immunological Societies (WHO ...

Prediction of pregnancy following transfer of in‐vitro produced embryos using recipient health records, accelerometer sensors and meteorological data in Australian dairy cows

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Embryo transfer (ET) in dairy cattle has long been used for the dissemination of elite genetics. However, achieving consistently high pregnancy rates remains a major challenge, particularly in high‐producing lactating dairy cows receiving in‐vitro produced (IVP) embryos.

Epidemiological impact of Neospora caninum in Victorian dairy farms: Modelling effective control strategies

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Neospora caninum is a major cause of abortion in cattle worldwide, causing significant economic losses. Despite Victoria's critical role in Australian dairy production, little is known about the local epidemiology of N. caninum and the effectiveness of control measures.

The last glacial cycle in western Norway—extensive MIS 5d glaciation, multiple glacial advances and LGM glacial advance phases

Boreas, EarlyView.
Raised marine MIS 5c sediments evidence extensive preceding (5d) glaciation in western Norway. This is the first out of five (or six) major Weichselian glacier advances that seem to correspond to North Atlantic sea surface cooling periods. Till beds capping the marine sediments show stages of pre‐LGM advance and subsequent retreat.

Cholinergic inputs to motoneurons in the spinal cord augment focal muscle spasticity in rodents

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Cholinergic premotor inputs to motoneurons support high levels of motor output when required. However, the possible role of these inputs in pathologically elevated muscle tone has not been characterised. To address this, we examined the modulatory effect of spinal acetylcholine (ACh) on experimental spastic paralysis ...
