Gut Microbial Topology and Metabolic Signatures Associated With Colorectal Neoplasia

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The gut microbiota organizes into two robust association patterns linked to colorectal neoplasia risk. Topological shifts in microbial networks are associated with metabolite alterations and may shape host responses during disease development. ABSTRACT Alterations of gut microbial communities impact health.

Fruit load governs transpiration of olive trees [PDF]

open access: yesTree Physiology, 2016
We tested the hypothesis that whole-tree water consumption of olives (Olea europaea L.) is fruit load-dependent and investigated the driving physiological mechanisms. Fruit load was manipulated in mature olives grown in weighing-drainage lysimeters. Fruit was thinned or entirely removed from trees at three separate stages of growth: early, mid and late

Differentiated Impacts of EU Rural Development Measures: A Finite Mixture Evaluation of Italian Olive Farms

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the relationship between participation in the EU Rural Development Program and the economic performance of Italian olive farms using a finite‐mixture model with inverse‐probability‐weighted regression adjustment. Based on 2010–2022 FADN panel data, it estimates heterogeneous treatment effects while correcting for selection ...

Identification of Field Tolerance and Resistance to Mal Secco Disease in a Citrus Germplasm Collection in Sicily

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
Mal secco is a tracheomycotic disease caused by the fungus Plenodomus tracheiphilus (Petri) Gruyter, Aveskamp, and Verkley that has caused severe damage and loss of yield in the citrus industry in the Mediterranean area, for 100 years.

MODELING FOR METABONOMIC FINGERPRINT ASSIGNMENT IN OLIVE FRUITS [PDF]

open access: yesActa Horticulturae, 2008
Metabonomics has been recently applied to a variety of studies in the agri-food field, mainly focused on adulteration identification and cultivar or geographical origin assessment. One-dimensional HR-NMR spectrum was acquired using a standard 1D pulse sequence (NOESYPRESAT) with water peak suppression.

Video and Text‐Based Supplemental Health Information and Consumer Willingness to Pay for Nutrient‐Enhanced Eggs

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nutritional information is very important in the food choices of consumers. However, when they are too scientific or technical, they have the potential to confuse consumers, resulting in information asymmetry and dissuading them from making beneficial choices.

Protection Motivation Theory and Farmers' Participation in Futures Markets: Evidence From Germany

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines why German farmers show limited adoption of commodity futures contracts despite substantial price volatility, applying Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) to understand the cognitive processes driving participation decisions in futures markets. Survey data from 303 German farmers collected in 2024 were analyzed using Partial

Assessment of Citrus Water Status Using Proximal Sensing: A Comparative Study of Spectral and Thermal Techniques

open access: yesLand
Early detection of plant water status is crucial for efficient crop management. In this research, proximal sensing tools (i.e., hyperspectral imaging HSI and thermal IR camera) were used to monitor changes in spectral and thermal profiles of a citrus ...
