ABSTRACT Recent advances in agricultural production and storage systems have contributed to a significant enhancement in annual wheat production and preservation, aimed at satisfying increasing consumer demands. Despite such potential developments, there are still significant post‐harvest losses in stored wheat, induced by destructive pests, grain ...

A milk‐clotting protease from Bacillus stercoris NCCP‐3139 was isolated from soil and purified via ammonium sulfate precipitation and sequential chromatographic techniques, yielding a homogeneous enzyme confirmed by SDS–PAGE. The protease exhibited high catalytic selectivity, with a marked increase in milk‐clotting‐to‐proteolytic activity ratio (50–550)

Are narwhals critical for the meat supply in East Greenland?
In East Greenland, the recommendations for the closure of the narwhal (Monodon monoceros) hunt coincide with a pressing demand to continue hunting for meat to supply local communities. By analysing catch statistics and estimating average meat yields, the

Space‐use strategies drive diet composition of Baffin Bay polar bears
Polar bears (Ursus maritimus) depend on sea ice to hunt their ice‐associated prey. However, climate‐induced sea ice loss is leading to changes in space‐use strategies of polar bears, with bears in some subpopulations spending more time on land or ...

Research highlight: how to cage a unicorn—confining light in a tiny volume
Overcoming the diffraction limit in optics is challenging and demands a profound understanding of light behavior under extreme confinement. The newly developed framework, termed singulonics, demonstrates the formation of sub-diffraction limit narwhal ...
