Working with UK farmers to investigate anecic earthworm middens and soil biophysical properties
Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 182, Issue 1, Page 92-100, January 2023., 2023 Middens were associated with improved aggregate stability, porosity and invertebrate feeding activity that could help to explain the recovery in soil physical properties when no‐tillage is adopted. Overlooking or deliberately avoiding midden sampling could lead to incorrect conclusions about earthworm functions in arable soils.

Glyphosate and a glyphosate-based herbicide affect bumblebee gut microbiota
FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2023 Abstract Pollinator decline is one of the gravest challenges facing the world today, and the overuse of pesticides may be among its causes. Here, we studied whether glyphosate, the world’s most widely used pesticide, affects the bumblebee gut microbiota.

The impact and toxicity of glyphosate and glyphosate-based herbicides on health and immunity [PDF]
Journal of Immunotoxicology, 2020 Glyphosate, or N-phosphomethyl(glycine), is an organophosphorus compound and a competitive inhibitor of the shikimate pathway that allows aromatic amino acid biosynthesis in plants and microorganisms. Its utilization in broad-spectrum herbicides, such as RoundUp®, has continued to increase since 1974; glyphosate, as well as its primary metabolite ...

How Competitive Is Myanmar's Rice Sector? A Comparison of Production Costs and Efficiency
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the cost competitiveness of rice production in Myanmar by examining production costs, cost efficiency, and the potential effect of improving cost efficiency on the country's global competitiveness. To achieve this, we conduct a comparative analysis of production costs among major rice‐producing countries and estimate the ...

The glyphosate controversy: an update [PDF]
Arquivos do Instituto Biológico, 2020 ABSTRACT The demand for food in the world grows year after year due in part to population growth, but also to the improvement of emerging markets. Brazil is one of the largest food producers in the world. In 2017, its cereal, legume and oilseed crops totaled 238.6 million tons, 29.2% more than the year before. Much of the great increase in productivity

The response of glyphosate-resistant and glyphosate-susceptible biotypes of Echinochloa colona to carbon dioxide, soil moisture and glyphosate [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2020 AbstractPhysiological and growth responses of two AustralianEchinochloa colonabiotypes (glyphosate-resistant and susceptible, produced from a single population) to different concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2) (ambient ~450 ppm and elevated ~750 ppm) and soil moisture (well-watered and water-stressed) were analyzed.

Analysis &Sensing, EarlyView.Sensor design increasingly focusses on miniaturized systems deployed directly at the point of need. For this purpose, microfluidics ensures low‐cost systems that can handle small sample volumes and molecularly imprinted polymers provide rugged, cost‐effective recognition.
