The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

An Efficient Protocol for the Production of Pure Lines in Flowering Chinese Cabbage [PDF]

HortScience, 2017
The rapid expansion of Asian populations in the United States presents significant requirements for Asian vegetables. Flowering chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L. ssp. chinensis var. utilis Tsen et Lee) is one of the most popular vegetables in China. The main factors restricting the progress in its breeding and genetic studies is the time required in ...

Claiming kinship through ‘filial heart’: migrant care workers in ageing Shanghai Revendiquer la parenté par le « cœur filial » : travailleurs migrants du care dans Shanghai vieillissante

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Drawing on the ethnography of migrant care workers in eldercare in Shanghai, this article reveals the evolving landscape of caregiving and kinship practices in contemporary China. The ethnography presents the emic perspective of care workers, who actively develop symbolic trajectories for claiming kinship through ‘filial heart’ in caregiving.

Whole-transcriptome sequencing reveals a vernalization-related ceRNA regulatory network in chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris L. ssp. pekinensis)

BMC Genomics, 2021
Background The transition from vegetative growth to reproductive growth involves various pathways. Vernalization is a crucial process for floral organ formation and regulation of flowering time that is widely utilized in plant breeding. In this study, we

Characterization and Transcriptome Analysis Reveal Exogenous GA₃ Inhibited Rosette Branching via Altering Auxin Approach in Flowering Chinese Cabbage

Agronomy
Branching is an important agronomic trait that is conducive to plant architecture and yield in flowering Chinese cabbage. Plant branching is regulated by a complex network mediated by hormones; gibberellin (GA) is one of the important hormones which is ...

Towards an anthropology of acquisition: ‘How did you get that?’ Vers une anthropologie de l'acquisition : « Où as‐tu trouvé ça ? »

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
The production‐distribution‐consumption triad has structured how anthropologists understand exchange for roughly a century. This article argues for expanding this triad to include an explicit focus on acquisition – the systems, processes, and practices of acquiring.

Effects of Host Plant Phenology on Oviposition Preference of Crocidolomia pavonana (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) [PDF]

, 2017
Field studies have demonstrated mixed success in trap cropping to manage Crocidolomia pavonana (=binotalis) [F.], a major pest of cruciferous crops in Asia. A possible explanation for this is an influence of host plant phenology on oviposition preference.
