Temperature responses of Rubisco from Paniceae grasses provide opportunities for improving C3 photosynthesis. [PDF]

, 2016
Enhancing the catalytic properties of the CO2-fixing enzyme Rubisco is a target for improving agricultural crop productivity. Here, we reveal extensive diversity in the kinetic response between 10 and 37 °C by Rubisco from C3 and C4 species within the ...

A Conservation Assessment and Systematic Review of the Endangered Spectacled Flying‐Fox 濒危眼镜狐蝠的保护评估与系统综述

Wildlife Letters, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 173-193, December 2025.
Spectacled flying‐fox Pteropus conspicillatus populations have declined so seriously over two decades that they are now endangered. Inaction has allowed threats to increase. Extreme heat events are now a lethal reality, habitat loss continues almost unabated, and pressure to disperse roosts is ever‐present. Obtaining resources and taking action to help

Supplementation strategies for beef cattle managed in integrated systems: Impacts on animal production and grain yields

Agronomy Journal, Volume 117, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Abstract The use of feed supplements can enhance land yield in crop‐livestock integrated systems (CLIS). Thus, a study was conducted in Montes Claros de Goiás, Brazil, between 2020 and 2023. The system comprised soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] cultivation during spring/summer (generally, sowing in November and harvesting in March), followed by Zuri ...

Impact of Introduced Pastures in Colombian Lowland Ranching

Agricultural Economics, Volume 56, Issue 6, Page 1241-1259, November 2025.
ABSTRACT The adoption of higher‐nutrient grass varieties, such as Brachiaria, offers long‐term economic benefits for ranchers while enhancing soil health and pasture productivity in Latin America's lowland climates. Despite widespread adoption, the field‐level impacts remain largely unexplored.
