Addressing the Attitude Behaviour Perception Gap—Multimethod Sustainable Tourist Behaviour Evaluation

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Quantitative and perceptual studies have been used to define and model sustainable tourist behaviour in past years, but few studies have undertaken qualitative research of actual behaviour to delve deeper into understanding the different classifications of such behaviour. This research employed a three‐phase design, comprising a pretrip survey,

Green Is the New Gold: Redefining Opulent Lifestyle Through Organic Food Purchases

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prior studies based on the Theory of Planned Behavior mostly examined the effects of health and environmental concerns on organic food consumption; however, few addressed the paradoxical relationships in the context of opulent or symbolic decorum.

Plant-based bioactive compounds for grain storage: a comprehensive review

open access: yesCogent Food & Agriculture
The post-harvest loss of grain is a global concern, especially for developing countries where food security is a big challenge. Botanical plants are called green pesticides, which can affect various insect pests in different ways.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Protein: Searching for Insecticidal Toxins in Venom of the Red Tiger Assassin Bug (Havinthus rufovarius)

open access: yesToxins, 2020
Assassin bugs are venomous insects that prey on other arthropods. Their venom has lethal, paralytic, and liquifying effects when injected into prey, but the toxins responsible for these effects are unknown.

Evaluation of Experimental Populations and Glandular-Haired Varieties of Alfalfa for Alfalfa Blotch Leafminer (Diptera: Agromyzidae) Feeding Injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Following the spread of the alfalfa blotch leafminer, Agromyza frontella (Rondani) (Diptera: Agromyzidae), into Minnesota and Wisconsin U.S.A. during 1994-1997, three field trials were conducted in Minnesota to assess the potential for leafminer ...

Comprehensive Characterization of Spelt Wheat and Common Wheat Protein and Viscosity Traits Under Different Field Management Systems

open access: yesCereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background There is an increasing interest in healthier, nutrient‐rich foods so alternative grains produced in smaller quantities—including spelt wheat (Triticum spelta L.)—have once again become the focus of consumers. At the same time, the scientific proof of these claims is incomplete.

Distribution of glycan motifs at the surface of midgut cells in the cotton leafworm (Spodoptera littoralis) demonstrated by lectin binding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Glycans are involved in many biological phenomena, including signal transduction, cell adhesion, immune response or differentiation. Although a few papers have reported on the role of glycans in the development and proper functioning of the insect midgut,

Gold Nanoparticles–Dynamic Constitutional Frameworks as Adaptive Hybrid Conjugates for Enzyme Immobilization

open access: yesChemistryEurope, EarlyView.
Dynamic constitutional frameworks (DCFs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNps) assemble into larger and well‐distributed conjugates providing an efficient platform for biosensing and biocatalytic applications. Dynamic constitutional frameworks (DCFs), connecting monomers via reversible covalent bonds, can initiate the assembly of gold nanoparticles (AuNps ...

Dual Ligand‐Enabled Nondirected C─H Olefination of (Hetero)Arenes for the Synthesis of Clickable Derivatives

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
We report an efficient method for late‐stage installation of “clickable” alkyne groups into diverse (hetero)arenes. Using a dual‐ligand palladium catalyst that combines an NASA ligand with an N‐heterocycle, an acrylate unit bearing a terminal alkyne can be introduced via nondirected C─H activation.
