SUCCESSION IN FAMILY FARM BUSINESS: EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE FROM THE U.S. FARM SECTOR [PDF]
Survival of many family farms is dependent on successful intergenerational transfer. Given the importance of succession in the farm sector, the purpose of this paper is to examine factors that are likely to influence succession decisions on U.S.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A pork belly‐inspired all‐biomass composite film was constructed through layer‐by‐layer assembly of cellulose nanofibers (CNFs), gelatin, and graphitized carbon nanosheets (GCNs) via hydrogen bonding and π–π stacking interactions. The excellent mechanical properties, effective thermal management, and outstanding EMI shielding performance of the ...

RUNX1‐Mediated Hypoxic Signaling Impairs Myogenesis and Promotes Fibrosis in Myopathies
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Myofiber overgrowth was associated with reduced blood flow and a potential hypoxic state in broiler breast muscle, accompanied by increased RUNX1 expression. Elevated RUNX1 impaired myogenic regeneration, promoted fibrosis, and disrupted the signaling niche required for efficient muscle repair, contributing to pathological degeneration in Wooden Breast

Single‐Nucleus RNA Sequencing Identifies CREM as a Brake on Myofiber Hypertrophy in Chickens
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Single‐nucleus RNA sequencing on 91 144 nuclei from postnatal chicken pectoralis major between fast‐growing broilers (FG) and slow‐growing layers (SG) identifies the transcriptional factor CREM as a novel brake of myofiber hypertrophy. Mechanistically, functional validation experiments confirm that CREM activates the promoter of JUN and CREM deletion ...
