Induction and Enhancement of Bacteriocin Production (Review)

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conventionally, bacteriocins are produced by microorganisms on complex substrates, released as semi‐purified preparations or crude fermentates. These bacteriocin‐containing products often exhibit unsatisfactory purity, low active‐substance content, and high production costs, limiting their commercialization and use. This review aims to analyze

Sowing time, false seedbed, row distance and mechanical weed control in organic winter wheat. [PDF]

, 2000
In organic farming, mechanical weed control in winter wheat is often difficult to carry out in the fall, and may damage the crop, and weed harrowing in the spring is not effective against erect, tap-rooted weeds such as Tripleurospermum inodorum, Papaver

Kin discrimination in plants: overview and implications for population and community ecology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Following the discovery of identity discrimination, particularly self and kin discrimination amongst plant competitors, research on interplant interactions has advanced significantly within plant physiology and evolutionary ecology. This review synthesizes current knowledge on how both self and kin discrimination influence plant growth ...

Eco‐Efficient in Mediterranean Olive Grove Systems: Insights From a Life Cycle Cost Analysis in Southern Portugal

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study assesses and compares the eco‐efficiency of six olive production systems in the Alentejo region, southern Portugal, employing a life cycle costing (LCC) approach directly integrated with a prior life cycle assessment (LCA). Although LCC has been increasingly applied to Mediterranean olive‐growing, empirical research in Portugal ...
