Engineered Yarrowia lipolytica inducing gene silencing confers control ability against gray mold in plants

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Engineered the plant‐colonizing yeast Yarrowia lipolytica to produce and deliver double‐stranded RNAs targeting key genes of the gray mold fungus Botrytis cinerea produced a ‘living factory’ that continuously synthesizes and releases gene‐silencing molecules on plant surfaces, effectively suppressing the pathogen.

A robust biotechnology induces artificial genomic duplication via transient RNAi‐mediated suppression of OSD1 in rice

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Plant Polyploidization via Gene Interference, a robust technology for inducing polyploidy in various rice accessions, uses transient RNAi‐mediated suppression of OSD1 to induce genomic duplication. Two strategies were used to directly induce fertile autotetraploid plants in the first generation, thereby substantially shortening the breeding cycle ...

From Social Justice to Indigenous Peoples' Rights: Continuities and (Re)framings in Ejido Property Claims in Yucatán, Mexico

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines how long‐standing local conflicts concerning the nature of common property, the distribution of access and administrative rights associated with it, and more broadly the nature of the community and the forms of citizenship that organise its governance shape demands for justice regarding land transfers to outside investors

‘Civilizing’ Smallholders Through Oil Palm: The Politics of Subsumption Across Southern Mexico's Commodity Frontiers

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While most frontier studies associate commodity expansions with dispossession, I argue that such expansions can also function as ‘civilizational’ projects aimed at overcoming traditional farming and creating new rural subjects better suited to the needs of capitalist development. Using a Gramscian approach to study subsumption, I analyse three

Fixing Rice Stubble Burning for Delhi's Air: Technological Solutionism and Agrarian Governance in Haryana

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Every winter, Delhi's polluted air draws national attention to the burning of rice stubble in neighbouring states. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in Haryana in north India, this article shows how bureaucrats and scientists attempt to enact certainty around technological solutions to stubble burning even while privately acknowledging their ...
