Pre‐treatment of grapevine plants with oregano essential oil vapour alleviates downy mildew susceptibility by accumulation of monoterpenol glycosides. Abstract Grapevine downy mildew, caused by the oomycete Plasmopara viticola, is a destructive disease that causes major economic losses as most elite grapevine cultivars are susceptible to this pathogen.

ABSTRACT The Copaifera species are traditionally used for their anti‐inflammatory, antiseptic and healing properties. The objective of this study was to compare the chromatographic profiles of seven samples of copaiba oil‐resin with respect to chromatographic and physicochemical properties and to evaluate their biological activities.

Abstract Solanum malmeanum, a wild relative of the potato (S. tuberosum), is native to Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay. This wild potato species belongs to the tertiary gene pool (2x = 2n = 24, 1EBN – Endosperm Balance Number) and possesses valuable traits for potato breeding. Understanding its reproductive mechanisms is crucial for effectively

This study applies stochastic rainfall models combining Markov Chains with gamma and mixed exponential distributions to a semi‐arid climate in Northeast Brazil. Model structures were evaluated using Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), with maximum likelihood (MLM) for parameter estimation and cumulative distribution functions (CDFs) for validation ...

Scientific knowledge about dementia: From the Global South to the world
Abstract Most people with dementia live in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs), but scientific knowledge about dementia is dominated by Global North perspectives. This interdisciplinary article combines expertise from Latin America, India, and Europe, using a mixed‐methodology approach that incorporates expert discussions, a narrative review, and ...

Unveiling the Dietary Selection of Lowland Tapirs (Tapirus terrestris) in a Tropical Rainforest
Large terrestrial herbivores, such as lowland tapirs (Tapirus terrestris) present many dietary ecological roles in their habitat. In this article, we investigated the diet of lowland tapirs in a tropical rainforest combining different techniques such as DNA metabarcoding, fieldwork, and plant functional traits.

Abstract Hydropower dams regulate water flows for millions of downstream inhabitants worldwide, altering water availability. Under a changing climate, flow control is often framed technically and politically as being essential for reducing drought and flood risks. However, it can also disrupt ecological flows, impact livelihoods and erode environmental

The Climate Modeling Alliance Atmosphere Dynamical Core: Concepts, Numerics, and Scaling
Abstract This paper presents the dynamical core of the Climate Modeling Alliance (CliMA) atmosphere model, designed for efficient simulation of a wide range of atmospheric flows across scales. The core uses the nonhydrostatic equations of motion for a deep atmosphere, discretized with a hybrid approach that combines a spectral element method (SEM) in ...
