The genetic improvement programme, aimed at identifying cocoa rootstocks resistant to Ceratocystis cacaofunesta, has enabled the selection of a series of genotypes with high levels of resistance within the INIAP germplasm bank. The use of improved and certified material in the clonal propagation of plants guarantees the productive life of our cocoa ...

Challenges and Opportunities for Strengthening Bottom‐Tow Fisheries Sustainability
ABSTRACT Bottom‐tow gear fisheries (trawls and dredges) produce ~24 million mt of harvest annually, representing a globally important animal‐sourced food system. While many are currently sustainably managed, growing concern over the potential for ecosystem impacts from bottom‐tow gears has increased pressure to improve these fisheries.

ABSTRACT Fortification of wheat‐based products with high‐nutritional‐value ingredients is becoming of great interest as a strategy for producing high‐quality sustainable food products. Therefore, pumpkin products such as pulp (PPU), peel (PPE), and seed (PS) were blended into wheat pasta at different proportions and combinations using D‐optimal mixture

This study tested whether coppery titi monkeys respond positively to plants like humans. The findings show that exposure to live plants reduced stereotypic behaviors, increased affiliative interactions—especially grooming—and attracted more visual attention, suggesting that plants may serve as effective enrichment for titi monkeys and reflect an ...

Harnessing genomic resources for passion fruit improvement: Progress and prospects
Abstract Passion fruit (Passiflora edulis) is a highly nutritious horticultural crop cultivated widely across tropical and subtropical regions. Despite decades of breeding efforts that have led to the release of a few high‐yielding cultivars, on‐farm productivity remains suboptimal, and several existing cultivars are showing signs of declining vigor ...
