Pesticide prioritization based on risk and model diet proposals for assessing cumulative exposure to pesticide residues in the Brazilian population through food consumption

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
A risk classification of registered pesticides in Brazil was conducted, and the contribution of food to cumulative pesticide exposure was evaluated. Model diets were proposed, based on Brazilian consumption patterns. Abstract BACKGROUND Pesticide residue exposure assessments can be carried out during both the pre‐regulation and post‐regulation phases ...

Single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas assays for point‐of‐need detection of Stewart's wilt pathogen (Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii) of corn and Maize dwarf mosaic virus

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1988-1999, April 2025.
Schematic diagram of the single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas12a/13a diagnostic assays for the detection of Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii and Maize dwarf mosaic virus. The validated assays provide a useful and sensitive molecular tool for detecting two quarantine pathogens of maize within a minimal resource framework suitable for fast‐tracking the ...

Climate‐Resilient Crop Production Under Agrivoltaics: Experimental Evaluation of Amaranth Production With Semi‐Transparent Photovoltaic Modules in Canada Under Changing Climates

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change threatens global food security, requiring climate‐smart systems that enhance both crop resilience and sustainable energy production. While agrivoltaics is recognized for combining solar power generation with agriculture, its effects on emerging stress‐tolerant crops such as amaranth remain largely unexplored, particularly under ...

A Bridge Transformer Network With Deep Graph Convolution for Hyperspectral Image Classification

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transformers have been widely applied to hyperspectral image classification, leveraging their self‐attention mechanism for powerful global modelling. However, two key challenges remain as follows: excessive memory and computational costs from calculating correlations between all tokens (especially as image size or spectral bands increase) and ...

In Defence of Food: A Comparative Study of Conversas' and Moriscas' Dietary Laws as a Form of Cultural Resistance in the Early Modern Crown of Aragon

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research explores the adaptive strategies employed by Conversas (Christian women of Jewish origin) and Moriscas (Christian women of Muslim origin) in navigating adversity, particularly in their interactions with inquisitorial authorities in the early modern Crown of Aragon. This study analyses these women's efforts to uphold religious and
