Manipulating the ensilage of wilted, unchopped grass through the use of additive treatments [PDF]
peer-reviewedBaled silage composition frequently differs from that of comparable conventional precision-chop silage. The lower final concentration of fermentation products in baled silage makes it more conducive to the activities of undesirable ...

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

Regulating Functional Foods: Pre- and Post-Market Strategy [PDF]
As best we understand the government, its first argument runs along the following lines: that health claims lacking significant scientific agreement are inherently misleading because they have such an awesome impact on consumers as to make it virtually

On the Use of Gallic Acid as a Potential Natural Antioxidant and Ultraviolet Light Stabilizer in Cast-Extruded Bio-Based High-Density Polyethylene Films [PDF]
This study originally explores the use of gallic acid (GA) as a natural additive in bio-based high-density polyethylene (bio-HDPE) formulations. Thus, bio-HDPE was first melt-compounded with two different loadings of GA, namely 0.3 and 0.8 parts per ...

Structural dynamics of the plant hormone receptor ETR1 in a native‐like membrane environment
The present study unveils the structural and signaling dynamics of ETR1, a key plant ethylene receptor. Using an optimized nanodisc system and solution NMR, we captured full‐length ETR1 in a native‐like membrane environment. Our findings reveal dynamic domain uncoupling and Cu(I)‐induced rigidification, providing the first evidence of metal‐triggered ...

Testing mechanisms of Bergmann’s rule: Phenotypic decline but no genetic change in body size in three posserine bird populations [PDF]
Bergmann’s rule predicts a decrease in body size with increasing temperature and has much empirical support. Surprisingly, we know very little about whether “Bergmann size clines” are due to a genetic response or are a consequence of phenotypic ...
