Food without fire: Environmental and nutritional impacts from a solar stove field experiment

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Over 80% of the population in rural Sub‐Saharan Africa relies on biomass cooking fuel, a substantial source of anthropogenic greenhouse gases. We use a field experiment in Zambia to investigate the impact of solar stoves on biomass fuel use and cooking habits.

Induction of systemic resistance in tomato by the autochthonous phylloplane resident Bacillus cereus Indução de resistência sistêmica em tomateiro pela bactéria autóctone residente no filoplano Bacillus cereus

Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2006
The objective of this work was to verify if the induced resistance mechanism is responsible for the capacity of a phylloplane resident bacteria (Bacillus cereus), isolated from healthy tomato plants, to control several diseases of this crop.

The Transcription Factor OsWRKY64 Interacts With OsART1 to Positively Regulate Al Resistance in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
A proposed working model illustrating the cooperative regulation of Al tolerance by OsWRKY64 and OsART1 in rice. Under Al stress conditions in acidic soil, the transcription factor OsART1 directly binds to the promoter of OsWRKY64 to activate its transcription. The synthesized OsWRKY64 protein then physically interacts with OsART1 in the nucleus.

Exacerbated ATP transmission in the carotid body is linked to glomus cell expansion in spontaneously hypertensive rats

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Exacerbated ATP signalling in the carotid body (CB) of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) arises from expansion of the chemosensory glomus cell compartment and reduced extracellular ATP metabolism, leading to increased purinergic drive.

Multiple QTL for horticultural traits and quantitative resistance to Phytophthora infestans linked on Solanum habrochaites chromosome 11. [PDF]

, 2014
Previously, a Phytophthora infestans resistance QTL from Solanum habrochaites chromosome 11 was introgressed into cultivated tomato (S. lycopersicum). Fine mapping of this resistance QTL using near-isogenic lines (NILs) revealed some co-located QTL with ...

Somatic Hybrids between Lycopersicon esculentum and Lycopersicon chmielewskii.

Plant Biotechnology, 2002
Interspecific somatic hybrids were obtained by electric protoplast fusion of cotyledon protoplasts of Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. Kyoryokutoko treated with iodoacetamide (IOA) and suspension-culture-derived protoplasts of L. chmielewskii (LA1330).

From Spider Webs to Brains: Can the Bri2 BRICHOS Molecular Chaperone Domain Transport Biological Drugs Into the Central Nervous System?

Advanced Biology, Volume 10, Issue 5, May 2026.
This Perspective describes how the chaperone‐like domain BRICHOS from the Bri2 protein is found to be transported across brain vascular endothelial cells and into neurons in the central nervous system. The possibility that Bri2 BRICHOS can be used as a transport shuttle for biological drugs into the CNS is discussed.
