Towards a Biodiversity Positive Business Strategy: The MCRV (Monitoring, Conserving, Restoring, Valorizing) Framework

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite mounting regulatory pressure and growing scientific consensus on biodiversity loss, most corporate action remains reactive, fragmented, and strategically peripheral. Existing frameworks address what firms should report rather than how they can build the organizational capabilities required to act strategically.

Reproductive characterization of interspecific hybrids among Capsicum species

Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2011
The objective of this study was the reproductive characterization of Capsicum accessions as well as of interspecific hybrids, based on pollen viability. Hybrids were obtained between Capsicum species.

Pollen production, viability and in vitro pollen germination of different litchi (Litchi chinensis) genotypes

The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2018
Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) is one of the important commercial fruits of the subtropical region. Its short flowering period couple with narrow genetic base serves as the major constraints in litchi genetic improvement.

Potential of Bee Pollen as a Nutraceutical And/Or Functional Ingredient for Metabolic Syndrome Management: In Vitro Antioxidant, Anti‐Inflammatory, and Digestive Enzyme Inhibitory Activities

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Bee pollen samples from China and Spain exhibited in vitro antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and digestive enzyme inhibitory activities due to their composition, suggesting their potential as a nutraceutical or functional ingredient to help counteract oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, and metabolic disorders.

The plant microbiome: From ecological foundations to precision microbial engineering for sustainable agriculture

iMeta, EarlyView.
From ecological principles to precision engineering of plant microbiomes for sustainable agriculture. The plant holobiont integrates diverse microbial niches (including rhizosphere, endosphere, phyllosphere, seed, and aerial‐root mucilagesphere), host genetics (namely M genes), and host metabolites. Furthermore, molecular dialogues, including rhizobial

Two near‐complete assemblies reveal R‐subgenome structural and centromeric divergence associated with reproductive isolation in hexaploid triticale

iMeta, EarlyView.
We present two near‐complete triticale genome assemblies and perform pan‐centromere analyses across >200 haplotypes from parental species, synthetic allopolyploids, cultivars, and 337 resequenced accessions, revealing a shared chromatin framework underlying functional centromeres in all three subgenomes, where wheat‐ and rye‐derived CENH3 co‐occupy ...

Drought Risk in Mango and Avocado Orchards: Insights Into Plant Water Relations and Irrigation‐Related Agronomic Solutions

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is making water availability more uncertain, with growing consequences for the productivity and long‐term sustainability of tropical and subtropical fruit orchards. Mangifera indica L. and Persea americana Mill. both require large amounts of water to sustain growth and productivity.
