No other choice: The fracturing of reflexivity in families' pathways into (non‐)elective home education in England

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract In England, education is compulsory, but schooling is not: it is legal for families to home educate their children. This form of education is officially termed by the Department for Education as ‘Elective Home Education’. As this designation implies, many families home educate as a positive and preferential ‘choice’.

Breeding switchgrass for reduced nitrogen demand

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Breeding has improved switchgrass biomass yield, but productivity is still heavily dependent on nitrogen fertilizer application. The genetic diversity needed to improve nitrogen use efficiency of switchgrass remains underused, mainly because of the slow and laborious breeding process, thus leaving the crop's high nitrogen demand as a major barrier to ...

Whose Care Matters? The Protective Role of Perceived Care in the Long‐Term Physical Health Consequences of Adolescent Loneliness

Journal of Adolescence, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Loneliness has been associated with physical health outcomes, including an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). While much of the research has focused on older adults, less is known about whether loneliness during adolescence is related to CVD risk later in life.

Fertilisation of the Hazel [PDF]

Nature, 1871
IN NATURE for April 7, 1870 (vol. i. p. 583), Mr. Marcus Hartog stated, as the result of his observations, that the male catkins and female flowers of the hazel are not simultaneously developed on the same twig, and that therefore a kind of quasi-cross-fertilisation necessarily takes place.

Decoupling climate and human impacts on the nitrogen cycle during the Irish Bronze Age

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disentangling climate variability and human activity in past nitrogen cycling is key to understanding ecosystems. Previous studies in Ireland observed a widespread, permanent shift in terrestrial nitrogen cycling during Later Prehistory, potentially linked to intensifying land‐use.

In vitro cell cultures obtained from different explants of Corylus avellana produce Taxol and taxanes

BMC Biotechnology, 2006
Background Taxol is an effective antineoplastic agent, originally extracted from the bark of Taxus brevifolia with a low yield. Many attempts have been made to produce Taxol by chemical synthesis, semi-synthesis and plant tissue cultures.

Farming in the shadows of Rome: A multi‐proxy palaeoenvironmental record from Loch Clunie—Perthshire

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Roman impacts on local society is a subject of international significance. Loch Clunie, Perthshire, lies only 5.4 km from Inchtuthil, the only Roman legionary fortress in Scotland, and contains two crannogs and a probable lakeside hillfort. Despite this proximity and the likelihood of local–Roman interaction, these sites remain unexcavated ...

UPLC-MS/MS profiling, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, and potential health benefits prediction of phenolic compounds in hazel leaf

Frontiers in Nutrition, 2023
Hazel leaf, one of the by-products of hazelnut, which is widely used in traditional folk medicine around the world. In the present study, the profile of free, conjugated, and bound phenolic compounds from hazel leaf was detected and their antioxidant and
