A comprehensive review of the genetic control of cooking time in dry beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
Reducing cooking time could increase dry beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) consumption. Cooking is an essential processing step needed to unlock the nutrients in dry beans and to make them palatable and safe for consumption. Long cooking times have consequences for dry bean use, especially where cooking fuel cost is high and when people prefer foods that are ...

The potential of seedbank digital information in plant conservation
Seedbanks are vital for biodiversity conservation, but their potential remains underutilised due to a limited understanding of the intraspecific genetic diversity they hold. By leveraging digitised data associated with seedbank collections, such as sampling locations, number of maternal plants and seed traits, we can attempt the estimation of genetic ...

Weak phenotypic and genetic associations between resistance to dicamba and 2,4‐D suggest that different nontarget‐site mechanisms contribute to these traits in an Amaranthus tuberculatus population from Illinois. Abstract BACKGROUND Amaranthus tuberculatus (Moq.) Sauer (waterhemp) has emerged as one of several weed species that is resistant to ...

A cyantraniliprole‐resistant strain of Spodoptera frugiperda with I4790K mutation exhibited a resistance ratio of 3414‐fold and high cross‐resistance to other diamide insecticides. Abstract BACKGROUND Cyantraniliprole, a diamide insecticide, is widely used in Brazil to control sucking and defoliating pests, including the fall armyworm (Spodoptera ...

Photon Number Coherence in Quantum Dot‐Cavity Systems can be Enhanced by Phonons
Photon number coherence (PNC) is important for quantum cryptography. Because of that, the PNC within a quantum dot‐cavity system is investigated theoretically. Phonons, which interact with the quantum dot, surprisingly do not necessarily decrease PNC. It is demonstrated that it is possible to optimize other figures of merit without significant penalty ...

ABSTRACT The relationship between farmers' education and the adoption of Sustainable Land Management (SLM) practices remains unclear in the literature. Additionally, research on the mechanisms underlying this relationship remains limited. This study investigates how farmers' education influences SLM adoption intensity, focusing on mediating factors of ...

What Makes a Mother? Investigating Maternal Success in Ex Situ Cheetahs
Feeding and diet may play a part in maternal success. Cheetahs who are reported to feed on ruminant meat have larger litters of cubs than female cheetahs who are not, while female cheetahs who are reported to experience starve days have a higher incidence of stillbirths.
