Heterogeneity in Food Price Inflation Convergence Across the EU: Evidence From Club Dynamics and Structural Breaks

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines food price inflation rate convergence among EU27 Member States from 2005 to 2024, focusing on structural breaks, external shocks, and regional disparities. Using panel unit root tests and club convergence analysis, the findings reveal no overall convergence but identify multiple convergence clubs.

Lysine Oxidation by LOXL2 in Single Strands Versus Triple Helices: Implications for Collagen‐Related Diseases

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The oxidation of Lys residues in proline‐rich single‐stranded collagen by LOXL2, a key enzyme for tissue maturation and linked to diseases, was revealed. Oxidation occurs at rates comparable to or higher than those of Lys in unstructured telopeptides, the well‐known native sites of Lysyl oxidase (LOX) activity.

Advancing European Plant Variety Registration: Data‐Driven Insights and Stakeholder Perspectives

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient plant variety registration is crucial for fostering innovation in the European Union, yet the current regulatory framework is complex and faces calls for reform. This study provides data‐driven evidence to inform the ongoing legislative debate by employing a mixed‐methods approach.

Soft Interactions, Rather Than Crowder Size, Determine Deviations From Arrhenius‐Like Kinetics of Phosphofructokinase‐1

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Our study investigates macromolecular crowding effects in the Arrhenius‐like and non‐Arrhenius temperature regimes of the human platelet isoform of phosphofructokinase‐1 (PFKP). The results reveal how PFKP maintains temperature robustness of catalytic activity in differently crowded environments.

Cost Pass‐Through in Crisis: Evidence From the German Malt‐Beer Supply Chain

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract Global agri‐food supply chains are increasingly exposed to geopolitical shocks, climate volatility, and market consolidation, factors that disrupt traditional price relationships and reshape market power dynamics. Nowhere is this more visible than in the brewing sector, where agricultural raw materials meet complex industrial processing and ...

Light‐Gated Control of Brownian Rotation by a Molecular Motor

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A light‐driven molecular motor acts as a reversible steric gate for a nearby Brownian rotor. Photoisomerization switches the rotor between fast and hindered rotational regimes by modulating steric congestion around the rotational axis. The motor–rotor architecture enables a five‐order‐of‐magnitude difference in the rotational barrier, demonstrating ...

Between Laughter and Horror: Humour and the Grotesque in Karel Michal’s ubáci pro všední den [Everyday Spooks]

open access: yesAcademic Journal of Modern Philology
Karel Michal (1932–1984) made his debut as a humourist and has, to this day, been regarded by many readers and critics primarily as the author of bold humoresques, distinguished by their unbridled imagination and inventive language.

Vertical Price Transmission in Food Markets: New Evidence From Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A growing body of empirical research has examined price dynamics along the food supply chain, yet findings remain heterogeneous and often conflicting. This study conducts a meta‐analysis of 140 studies, totaling 652 observations, to examine (1) the reported presence of asymmetric price transmission and (2) the reported direction of price ...

Czech humour as timeless anti-ideological propaganda

open access: yesPannoniana, 2016
World wars have left an indelible trace while they lasted as well as in times after them. In Czech culture and literature one of the common ways of adapting to political regime changes is using humour in literary works.

Lab‐Scale Fabrication Process Selection for Soft Robotics: Benchmarking, Tradeoffs, and Guidelines for Formative Manufacturing of Soft Silicone Components

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Fabrication shapes soft robot performance, but benchmarking data and selection guidelines remain scarce. We fabricate silicone actuators using two molding techniques and three mold types, characterizing them with cycle testing, microscopy, profilometry, and 3D imaging. Applying our lab‐scale, soft robotics‐specific fabrication evaluation criteria shows
