The Impact of Credit and Training on Farmers Efficiency: A Semi‐Parametric Meta‐Frontier Analysis

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smallholder farmers in developing countries face several constraints, which affect their productivity. To reduce these constraints and enhance productivity, government and non‐governmental agencies implement programmes that provide credit and training to farmers.

Positivity of Schur forms for strongly decomposably positive vector bundles

Forum of Mathematics, Sigma
In this paper, we define two types of strongly decomposable positivity, which serve as generalizations of (dual) Nakano positivity and are stronger than the decomposable positivity introduced by S. Finski.

Views of Vidigal: negotiating opportunities and risks in a gentrifying favela in Rio de Janeiro Favela avec vue : négocier opportunités et risques dans un quartier en voie de gentrification à Rio de Janeiro

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
The contested dynamics of slum gentrification in Rio de Janeiro came into focus during the brief period of relative peace brought by the pacification policy leading up to the 2016 Olympics. In this unprecedented moment, Rio's South Zone favela residents experienced a respite from the daily confrontations with police operations and drug trade violence ...

Decoding Dual Regulatory Layers: Integrating Differential Expression and Alternative Splicing Dynamics in the Evolution of Laryngeal Echolocation Across Chiropteran Lineages

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We integrated short‐read and long‐read RNA‐seq data from cochlear tissues of echolocating and non‐echolocating bats to disentangle transcriptional and post‐transcriptional regulation. Echolocating bats showed neural‐function enrichment among differentially expressed genes, while alternatively spliced genes were linked to epigenetic regulation. Overlaps

Troglodontobdella, a New Replacement Name for the Preoccupied Troglobdella Liu and Nakano, 2025 (Hirudinea: Erpobdelliformes: Salifidae)

Species Diversity
Troglodontobdella nom. nov. is herein proposed as a replacement name for the salifid leech genus Troglobdella Liu and Nakano in Liu, Li, Wu, Lin, Li, Nakano, and Liu, 2025, because the latter genus-group name is preoccupied by the acariform genus ...

Time‐ and cultivar‐dependent biochemical responses to heat priming and stress in rice

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Global warming increasingly threatens rice productivity, and understanding the biochemical mechanisms underlying heat stress responses is crucial for developing resilient cultivars. By demonstrating that stress responses are both cultivar‐ and time‐of‐day‐dependent, our findings offer new insights into the temporal and genetic regulation of acquired ...

Structure-activity relationship study for fungicidal activity of 1-(4-phenoxymethyl-2-phenyl-[1,3]dioxolan-2-ylmethyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole derivatives against rice blast

Journal of Plant Protection Research, 2015
To explore new antifungal agents for rice blast control, the antifungal activity of a series of novel 1,2,4-triazole derivatives against Magnaporthe oryzae has been evaluated.

$L^2$ estimates and vanishing theorems for holomorphic vector bundles equipped with singular Hermitian metrics

, 2018
We investigate singular Hermitian metrics on vector bundles, especially strictly Griffiths positive ones. $L^2$ esitimates and vanishing theorems usually require an assumption that vector bundles are Nakano positive.

Molecular and clinical features of a Japanese medulloblastoma cohort: Subgroup‐specific prognostic stratification using economical/accessible diagnostic methods

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
This study characterizes the molecular subgroup–specific features of a nationwide Japanese cohort comprising 242 medulloblastomas (MBs). Furthermore, we introduce SEE‐6‐CNA, a simple, cost‐effective, and FFPE‐compatible molecular test that is applicable to routine pathology samples and serves as a surrogate for risk stratification in non‐WNT/non‐SHH ...

Acoustic contrast control for sound fields outside and inside an enclosure [PDF]

AIP Advances
Loudspeaker arrays are commonly used for personal audio systems. Alternatively, panel loudspeakers can be employed in place of conventional loudspeaker arrays. The advantage of panel loudspeakers is that they preserve the appearance and aesthetic quality
