Lost in aggregation? On the importance of local food price data for food poverty estimates

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores within‐country variations in food price dynamics and food poverty estimates by employing local market price data and national consumer price index (CPI) data. Our results show that national CPI data may be useful for approximating national trends but they fail to detect and identify spatial variations in local trends, which

Exploration of new sources of sweet cherry genetic diversity prospected in Azerbaijan, Caucasus, supposed center of origin of Prunus avium L.

Sweet cherry breeding is an active field of research with an increasing number of private and public actors involved. Nevertheless, the genetic basis of the majority of parental materials used is rather narrow.

Environmental and Genetic Effects on the Composition of Palm Oil From Hybrid Plant Clones of Caiaué and Oil Palm

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The interspecific hybrids (IEH OxG) obtained from the crossing of Elaeis oleifera (Eo) and Elaeis guineensis (Eg) are resistant to some diseases that affect Eg in some regions of South America, and commercial growing in several countries has been established.

Turning a new leaf: PhenoVision provides leaf phenology data at the global scale

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Plant phenology dictates many aspects of community function and ecosystem dynamics. Yet, global phenology data are still limited, especially in areas lacking monitoring programs. Here we present a new data resource, PhenoVision–Leaf, which extends a computer vision pipeline utilizing iNaturalist digital image vouchers to produce global‐
