Reappraisal and neotypification of Phyllachora feijoae
Acca sellowiana (Myrtaceae), feijoa (in Brazil, goiaba da serra), is a native southern South America tree that produces edible fruits which, although only occasionally cultivated in South America, became a significant fruit crop in New Zealand. Recently, during surveys for fungal pathogens of feijoa in southern Brazil, several plants were found bearing

ABSTRACT Food system transformation is urgently needed; although dominant food and sustainability discourses tend to focus on powerful stakeholders like governments and industries. We sought to understand how localised, community‐based initiatives promote food system change, and how this is experienced by the people they are meant to involve or benefit.

SCG enhanced the dietary fiber content and provided antioxidant protection against lipid oxidation in beef patties during storage. Molecular docking results also confirmed strong interactions, especially for chlorogenic acid, supporting the potential of SCG as a functional and sustainable ingredient in meat products. ABSTRACT Spent coffee grounds (SCG)

Intestinal mucosal immunity is very important to the body’s defense system and can be affected by extrinsic factors such as bacteria and food components. In the present report we assessed the intestinal immunomodulatory activity of Feijoa sellowiana Berg (feijoa), a tropical fruit expected to become widely popular in Japan.

Genetic consequences of domestication and refreshment on colonies of the South American fruit fly
Abstract For almost a decade, natural populations of the South American fruit fly have been targeted for control through Sterile Insect Technique projects. To ensure a sustainable supply of competitive sterile flies for this approach, it is essential to understand the effects of domestication when strains of this pest are initially brought into the ...

National Horizon Scanning for Future Crops Under a Changing UK Climate
One potential option for agricultural adaptation to climate change is to identify alternative crops better suited to changing local climates. We present a national‐scale horizon‐scan of climatic suitability across over 160 crops for the UK. Climate change may bring opportunities for UK cropping systems.
