Thinopyrum intermedium (c.n. intermediate wheatgrass), marketed under the trade name Kernza, is a promising species for perennial grain production based on seed size, ease of threshing, resistance to shattering, and grain quality.

Summary Analysis of recent Eurostat data shows a progressive decline in EU cereal production. While cultivated acreage has contracted steadily since 2013, the most severe output reduction occurred during 2022–2024, driving a surge in import volumes. This is mirrored in Italy, exposing systemic vulnerabilities within high‐value agri‐food supply chains ...

Responses of Soil Arthropod Communities to Varying Shading Levels in Agriphotovoltaic Systems
Soil fauna was primarily influenced by crop type and season rather than AgriPhotovoltaic (APV) panels. Elevated panels increased soil temperature and soil organic matter in early wheat stages, while shading enhanced soil moisture for tomatoes, benefiting moisture‐sensitive taxa.

The Monterey Event and the Paleocene‐Eocene Thermal Maximum
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Running towards: Labour market incentives for runaway slaves in the British Cape Colony, 1830–1838
Abstract Recent scholarship on slave escapes has increasingly emphasised economic motivation, but few studies have empirically investigated how market incentives influenced the decision‐making of enslaved individuals during transitions from coerced to wage labour.

The dual crisis: Climate change simultaneously drives pollinator decline and pest outbreaks
Climate change acts as an asymmetric ecological filter, favouring r‐selected pest traits (rapid reproduction, generalism) while disadvantaging K‐selected pollinators. For every 1°C of warming, bee species richness declines ~25% since the 1990s, while pest‐induced crop losses increase by 10%–25%. A network‐centric approach integrating climate‐responsive

Daily prospective symptom reports from participants in this multicentre observational study were compared to retrospective (last 12 months) reports based on ARIA clinical questionnaire. Retrospective reports substantially underestimated, and to a lesser extent overestimated, symptom frequency compared to e‐Diary prospective reports. Since retrospective

Pre‐Seasonal Treatment With Recombinant Carrier‐Based Birch Vaccine Improves Birch Pollen Allergy
We conducted a two stage SCIT trial with GNR‐127 containing a recombinant fusion protein consisting of Bet v 1 and Mal d 1‐derived peptides fused to PreS from HBV. Stage 1 identified two safe maximum tolerated doses (40 μg and 80 μg). In the following Stage 2, five preseasonal injections were well tolerated, induced dose‐dependent allergen‐specific IgG,

Seasonal root growth and dry matter partitioning in perennial wheat
Perennial wheats produced grain for up to 4 years in southern Australia, but quantitative data are lacking on dry matter (DM) allocation above- and below-ground over regrowth cycles.

EMU and trade: The euro effect on the agricultural sector
Abstract This paper uses a structural gravity model to examine the partial equilibrium effects of the European Monetary Union (EMU) on trade for the agricultural sector. We find robust evidence that EMU has increased trade both between members and between EMU and non‐EMU member countries. This positive link is found in most member countries.
