Seeds of change: The impact of Ethiopia's direct seed marketing approach on smallholders' seed purchases and productivity

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract While multiple factors explain low adoption rates of improved varieties by small‐scale farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa, a key supply‐side constraint is the limited availability of seed embodying new traits in the volume, quality, price, and timeliness required by farmers. This constraint is partly attributable to classical failures in the market

Polyproline: A Synthetic Polypeptide With Unique Properties

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Poly‐L‐proline is a unique polypeptide distinguished by its well‐defined secondary structures and unusual thermal behavior. This mini review highlights recent advances in the synthesis of poly‐L‐proline by N‐carboxyanhydride (NCA) polymerization, the formation of structurally defined architectures and nanostructures, and emerging strategies that ...

Choice experiments on land managers' participation in environmental programs: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of estimate validity

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Discrete choice experiments are increasingly being used to estimate land managers' willingness to accept participation in incentive‐based environmental programs. This is a specific application of discrete choice experiments: the estimation of willingness to accept for a private good (program participation) where respondents have to make trade ...

GENETIC INSIGHT INTO THE ISOLATES CAUSING BLACKLEG DISEASE ON POTATO [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Blackleg disease, caused by pectolytic bacteria from genus Dickeya and Pectobacterium is currently being one of the main concerns in potato production. Yield loss and reduced quality, visible through potato black rotting at the stem base, as well as whole plant decaying, makes potato cultivation less profitable.

The Nature of Cell‐Penetrating Poly(disulfide)s

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The mode of action of cell‐penetrating poly(disulfide)s (CPDs) is elucidated to understand thiol‐mediated uptake (TMU) in general and guide future efforts to control cellular entry for chemicals delivery and pathogen defense. ABSTRACT Cell‐penetrating poly(disulfide)s (CPDs) are the most popular thiol‐mediated uptake (TMU) tools for delivering attached

The causal effect of agricultural landscape simplification on Germany's grasslands during a compound drought and heatwave in 2018

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Preserving ecosystem services, along with economic and environmental benefits, will require future landscape policies to identify and incorporate relevant landscape features. In this paper, we investigate the causal effect of agricultural landscape simplification on drought‐related grassland damages.

Evolutionary relationship between organellar DNA inheritance patterns and traits of seed plants

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise In plants, organellar DNA is predominantly maternally inherited, but biparental and paternal inheritance have also been observed. Specific mechanisms, such as plastid exclusion during pollen mitosis or genome degradation, ensure maternal inheritance.
