Identification of candidate genes controlling oil content by combination of genome-wide association and transcriptome analysis in the oilseed crop Brassica napus

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2019
Background Increasing seed oil content is one of the most important targets for rapeseed (Brassica napus) breeding. However, genetic mechanisms of mature seed oil content in Brassica napus (B. napus) remain little known.

Exogenous Abscisic Acid Affects the Heat Tolerance of Rice Seedlings by Influencing the Accumulation of ROS

Antioxidants, 2023
Heat stress (HS) has become one of the major abiotic stresses that severely constrain rice growth. Abscisic acid (ABA) plays an important role in plant development and stress response.

The role of Moringa oleifera in the development of alternative biofuels, under the concept of an integral one‐tree biorefinery: A minireview

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The Moringa oleifera oil tree is commonly known as the ‘tree of life’ or the ‘miracle tree’ owing to its multiple benefits for humans. The different parts that make up this tree (leaves, seeds and bark) have been used to treat various ailments, diseases and wounds. However, in recent years this tree is being used by the scientific community to

Comparative transcriptome analysis of the mechanism difference in heat stress response between indica rice cultivar “IR64” and japonica cultivar “Koshihikari” at the seedling stage

Frontiers in Genetics, 2023
Heat stress (HS) has become a major abiotic stress in rice, considering the frequency and intensity of extreme hot weather. There is an urgent need to explore the differences in molecular mechanisms of HS tolerance in different cultivars, especially in ...

Restoring Food System Resilience in a Turbulent World: Supply Chain Actors' Shared Responsibility

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ecological and economic crises increasingly affect the long‐term resilience of the food supply chain. This qualitative study draws on semistructured interviews and public evidence to analyse the perspectives of British supply chain actors. Asking which pathways towards food system resilience arise and which forms of social and environmental ...

Opportunities and limitations for the introduction of circular economy principles in EU aquaculture based on the regulatory framework

Journal of Industrial Ecology, Volume 26, Issue 6, Page 2033-2044, December 2022., 2022
Abstract EU aquaculture produces only a small fraction of the internal demand of aquatic foods, but boosting this activity must be done in compliance with high standards of environmental protection and social benefits, as fostered by the policies on circular economy recently launched by the EU.
