A review on urban agriculture: technology, socio-economy, and policy

Heliyon, 2022
It has been a challenge to support the expansion of urban agriculture (UA) in cities due to its poor economic profitability. However, it is also hard to deny the increasing benefits of UA in improving the socio-environmental dimension of cities.

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Methodology and tools for data acquisition and statistical analysis

, 2006
Monitoring is a statutory requirement for the cultivation of genetically modified (GM) crops in the EU. To observe effects linked with the cultivation of GM crops data can be collected from different sources like farm questionnaires or existing ...

Comparison of different real-time PCR chemistries and their suitability for detection and quantification of genetically modified organisms [PDF]

, 2008
Background The real-time polymerase chain reaction is currently the method of choice for quantifying nucleic acids in different DNA based quantification applications. It is widely used also for detecting and quantifying genetically modified components in

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Data acquisition by farm questionnaires and linkage to other sources of data

, 2006
Monitoring is a statutory requirement for the cultivation of genetically modified (GM) crops in the EC. Questionnaires for farmers to report observations of effects potentially linked with the cultivation of GM crops can form a useful part of a ...

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

A statistical assessment of differences and equivalences between genetically modified and reference plant varieties [PDF]

, 2011
Background Safety assessment of genetically modified organisms is currently often performed by comparative evaluation. However, natural variation of plant characteristics between commercial varieties is usually not considered explicitly in the ...

Readiness of adolescents to use genetically modified organisms according to their knowledge and emotional attitude towards GMOs

Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2017
Introduction Agriculture based on genetically modified organisms plays an increasingly important role in feeding the world population, which is evidenced by a considerable growth in the size of land under genetically modified crops (GM).

Scion on a stock producing siRNAs of potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd) attenuates accumulation of the viroid. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Plants can attenuate the replication of plant viruses and viroids by RNA silencing induced by virus and viroid infection. In higher plants, silencing signals such as small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) produced by RNA silencing can be transported ...
