Biodegradation of Juglone by Xanthomonas arboricola pv. juglandis, the Causal Agent of Walnut (Juglans regia L.) Bacterial Blight

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Xanthomonas arboricola pv. juglandis is the causal agent of walnut blight, a disease affecting Juglans regia L. cultivations by causing severe economic losses worldwide. The content of phenolic compounds in J. regia cultivars plays an important role in determining the resistance or susceptibility to the infection. In this study, the assessment

Are there Carbon Savings from US Biofuel Policies? Accounting for Leakage in Land and Fuel Markets [PDF]

This paper applies the insights of the carbon leakage literature to study the emissions consequences of biofuel policies. We develop a simple analytic framework to decompose the intended emissions impacts of biofuel policy from four sources of carbon ...

Carbon Leakage with Forestation Policies [PDF]

This paper analyzes carbon leakage due to reduced emissions from deforestation (RED). We find that leakage with RED is good because the policy induces afforestation that contributes to a further carbon sequestration. By ignoring the domestic component of

Improving the Economics of Sustainable Aviation Fuels: System‐Level Analyses and Perspective

ChemSusChem, EarlyView.
A coproduction strategy is developed to address the economic and environmental limitations of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production. Using lignocellulosic biomass, the integrated process coproduces SAF, adipic acid, and furfural. Techno‐economic and life‐cycle analyses reveal improved profitability and a substantial reduction in carbon emissions ...

Resource allocation and growth strategies in a multi‐plant firm: Kanegafuchi Spinners in the early 20th century

Strategic Management Journal, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Research Summary Using detailed plant‐ and individual‐level data from a major Japanese cotton spinning company in the early 20th century, we examine the within‐firm allocation of skilled human capital in conjunction with investment in physical capital, accompanying the firm's evolving strategic priorities.

On the targeting and redistributive efficiencies of alternative transfer instruments [PDF]

The paper shows how the so-called distributional characteristic of a policy instrument can be additively decomposed into two components; one that captures the targeting efficiency of the instrument, the other its redistributive efficiency.

Gels for CO2 geo‐storage and conformance control: A systemic review of behavior and performance

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review provides a systemic evaluation of potential sealants used in CO2 subsurface storage practices. Critical analyses of how external factors like CO2, pH, brine salinity and hardness, rock mineralogy, pressure, temperature, and injectivity could affect the performance of different sealants are provided. Abstract Carbon capture and storage (CCS)

How big is leakage from forestry carbon credits? Estimates from a Global Model [PDF]

There is widespread recognition that forestry carbon credits can reduce the net emissions of carbon into the atmosphere. Designing systems to sequester carbon, however, has proven difficult due to a number of efficiency issues, including leakage. Leakage
