Anatomical variations along the leaf axis modulate photosynthetic responses of sorghum and maize under different water availabilities. [PDF]

Plant Biol (Stuttg)
The middle part of C4 leaves is more anatomically and photochemically drought‐adapted than the apex or base. Water limitation did not negatively effect leaf anatomy and photosynthesis in sorghum, but reduced gas exchange and the thickness of leaf tissues in maize.

Seroprevalence of Protective Antibodies Against Influenza and the Reduction of the Influenza Incidence Rate: An Annual Repeated Cross-Sectional Study From 2014 to 2019. [PDF]

Influenza Other Respir Viruses
ABSTRACT Background Seroepidemiological studies provide estimates of population‐level immunity, prevalence/incidence of infections, and evaluation of vaccination programs. We assessed the seroprevalence of protective antibodies against influenza and evaluated the correlation of seroprevalence with the cumulative annual influenza incidence rate ...

Natural Denudation Versus Anthropogenically Accelerated Erosion in Central Brazil: A Confrontation of Time and Space Scales

Earth's Future, Volume 11, Issue 8, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Land degradation resulting from increased continental surface erosion is a worldwide and systemic phenomenon due to unsustainable human activities. Already fragile, the intertropical zone is likely to be further affected by climate change like increased aridity, an aggravating factor of soil erosion and land degradation.

Pest risk assessment of Elasmopalpus lignosellus for the European Union

EFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a quantitative pest risk assessment of Elasmopalpus lignosellus (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), the lesser cornstalk borer, for the EU. The assessment considered entry, establishment, spread and impact.

Valorization of different landrace and commercial sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) straw varieties by anaerobic digestion

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 15, Issue 3, Page 332-345, March 2023., 2023
Landrace cultivars presented greater biomass, compactness and grain production. Zahina (landrace cultivar) obtained the highest final methane yield: 413 NL CH4 kg−1 VS. Zahina gigante and Trigomillo (landrace cultivars) achieved the highest methane per biomass production.

Evaluation of the theoretical risk of cross‐reactivity among recently identified food allergens for dogs

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 33, Issue 6, Page 523-526, December 2022., 2022
Background: There is increasing evidence of cross‐reactivity between allergens of close or distant species. The A‐RISC (Allergens'–Relative Identity, Similarity and Cross‐reactivity) index helps evaluate the risk of theoretical cross‐reactivity between proteins of the same family among different species.

Sorghum root epigenetic landscape during limiting phosphorus conditions

Plant Direct, Volume 6, Issue 5, May 2022., 2022
Abstract Efficient acquisition and use of available phosphorus from the soil is crucial for plant growth, development, and yield. With an ever‐increasing acreage of croplands with suboptimal available soil phosphorus, genetic improvement of sorghum germplasm for enhanced phosphorus acquisition from soil is crucial to increasing agricultural output and ...
