The Effect of Sustainability Information on Consumers' Preferences for Fungus‐Resistant Grape Wine

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The demand for sustainable food production is intensifying the need to reduce the environmental and social impacts of pesticide use in agriculture. In viticulture, where dependence on pesticides is high because grapevines are susceptible to fungal diseases, fungus‐resistant grape varieties (PIWI) offer a promising strategy to reduce chemical ...

The role of venture‐financed startups in innovation for US agriculture

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract To evaluate the role played by startup companies in the innovation ecosystem of US agriculture, we compile a unique dataset of 6024 new entrants founded 1987–2019 that details their financing lifecycles, annual economic performance, and patenting activities.

Improving access to new technologies: An experiment with Kenyan input sellers

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Agrodealers play a critical role in rural economies, selling essential inputs for agricultural production, stocking new products, and providing farmers with technical advice. However, uncertainty can discourage them from stocking newer, less familiar products, limiting the availability of innovative technologies and leading to market failures ...

The Manifestation of the Electrochemical Potential Gradient in the Kinetic Landscapes of Interfacial Electrochemistry

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
The overpotential constitutes an electrochemical potential difference at the solid–liquid interface, which can manifest itself in different ways. In general, it can not only drive the reaction along the reaction coordinate, but also modulate chemical potentials in the extended environment that shape activation barriers, without necessarily being a ...

Next‐Generation Glutamine Synthetase Expression Vector for Therapeutic Protein Manufacturing Using CHO Cells

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The glutamine synthetase expression system is widely used for therapeutic protein biomanufacturing in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. Here, we present the design of an enhanced glutamine synthetase vector for generating CHOK1SV GS‐KO stable pools that produce recombinant proteins at multigram‐per‐liter levels. We first developed a synthetic

Ant Diversity of the Xisha Islands: Community Structure, Exotic Species Colonization, and Ecological Functions in a Tropical Coral Archipelago

Biological Diversity, EarlyView.
The first inventory of ants from the Xisha Islands of the South China Sea was compiled, revealing 21 species: 70% native and 30% exotic. Anthropogenic disturbance primarily drove exotic colonization, whereas island area showed weak positive effects on species richness. Most ants were omnivorous, with key mutualistic and seed‐dispersal roles.
