Engineering Biology Beyond Single Genes: Advances and Challenges in Multiplex Genome Editing

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Multiplex genome editing is transforming genome engineering from single‐gene perturbation to network‐level control, yet its broader application remains limited by challenges in gRNA array engineering, delivery technologies, and safety management. Emerging AI‐driven approaches are accelerating guide RNA design and CRISPR effector optimization for ...

Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.

Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.

When Nature Counts: Corporate Biodiversity Attention and Access to Bank Finance

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether corporate attention to biodiversity influences firms' access to bank loans, an overlooked question in the emerging biodiversity–finance literature. Using a novel, text‐based measure constructed from 446 biodiversity‐related keywords and applied to Chinese A‐share listed firms from 2000 to 2023, we show that ...

Role of extensification strategies in chicken meat quality

open access: yesPoultry Science
The latest studies suggest a beneficial influence of husbandry factors, including increased space allowance, access to perches, and roughage, on the welfare of chickens; however, their effects on meat quality are divergent. Two experiments (EXP1 and EXP2)

Shaping the Protein Transition From the Niche: Firm‐Level Dynamics in Europe's Plant‐Based Alternative Protein Sector

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The agri‐food sector, most notably intensive livestock production, stands as a major driver of climate change, prompting a shift towards plant‐based alternative protein production and consumption. Such protein transition is widely recognised as central to the development of an environmentally sustainable food economy.

The effect of farmyard stress on meat quality: A model enabling the search for predictive biomarkers of meat pH

open access: yes, 2022
High pH meat is frequently associated with poor shelf-life and eating quality, and pH is a commonly used marker for meat quality. Early detection of high pH lamb is desirable and can improve meat quality control. Due to the variability in the occurrence
