Updates on Mediterranean diet and health status: active ingredients and pharmacological mechanisms

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) is among the most extensively studied dietary patterns and has been consistently associated with reduced risk of all‐cause mortality, cardiovascular disease, metabolic disorders, cognitive decline and several types of cancers.

Combining Biophysical and Price Simulations to Assess the Economics of Long-Term Crop Rotations [PDF]

Biophysical simulation models (e.g. APSIM) using historical rainfall data are increasingly being used to provide yield and other data on crop rotations in various regions of Australia.

Variety and weed management effects on organic chickpea stand establishment and seed yield

Agrosystems, Geosciences & Environment, 2020
The need for organic produce is increasing worldwide but weed control remains a critical problem for organic crop production. Three types of weed control practices were evaluated for two organic chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) varieties at the Western ...

Local Elites in Chile's Pisco Valley: Dispossession, Legal Mobilisation and Intertwined Citizenship

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In countries in the Global South, citizenship is often closely tied to access to water and land ownership. In Latin America, the literature has primarily explored social mobilisation and identity reconfiguration in response to development‐driven processes of land and water dispossession affecting peasants, rural and Indigenous communities ...

Performance of contrasted rice genotypes grown under water saving irrigation and trait discovery for genotype improvement : [Abstract, P 3.06] [PDF]

, 2009
Water saving technologies without reduction on grain yield, like alternate wetting and drying (AWD), have been implemented successfully in irrigated rice fields.

Identification of quantitative trait loci controlling root and shoot traits associated with drought tolerance in a lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) recombinant inbred line population [PDF]

, 2016
Drought is one of the major abiotic stresses limiting lentil productivity in rainfed production systems. Specific rooting patterns can be associated with drought avoidance mechanisms that can be used in lentil breeding programs.

Between Financial and Socioemotional Wealth: Navigating Knotted Tensions in Family Business Innovation

Journal of Product Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Current research on family business innovation tends to isolate individual tensions for analysis, while in reality, these tensions often arise in complex entanglements. To fill this research void, we focus on understanding how multiple tensions occur in the innovation process, how these tensions are entangled, and how they are managed. We turn

Climate change and crop resilience: harnessing metabolomics for predicting stress tolerance

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summarised methodology for metabolite biomarker discovery and genomic targets selection for those metabolites to predict high‐throughput phenotypic and agronomic traits of interest for direct uptake in breeding programmes. Summary Global warming is driving climate change to levels not experienced since the advent of agriculture, primarily due to ...

Effect of drought stress and subsequent recovery on protein, carbohydrate contents, catalase and peroxidase activities in three chickpea (Cicer arietinum) cultivars [PDF]

Drought stress is one of the major abiotic stresses in agriculture worldwide. This study was carried out to investigate the effects of drought stress and subsequent recovery on protein, carbohydrate content, catalase (CAT), and peroxidase (POX ...

Distinct Defence Mechanisms of Allelopathic Rice Against Quinclorac‐Susceptible and ‐Resistant Barnyardgrass: Involvement of Specific Metabolites and Rhizosheath Microbiota

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allelopathic rice is increasingly recognised as a promising strategy for sustainable weed management. Resistance to the herbicide quinclorac is widespread in barnyardgrass, but it remains unclear whether allelopathic rice exerts the same defence against herbicide‐susceptible and ‐resistant barnyardgrass. We conducted integrated transcriptomic,
