The importance of wild meat and freshwater fish for children's nutritional intake in the Congo Basin

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Wild meat and freshwater fish are widely consumed in the Congo Basin, but in some areas, they are at risk of disappearing due to unsustainable hunting and fishing and changes in their habitat. Wild meat is also at risk of being eliminated from local diets due to potential policy changes such as wild meat bans.

Notes on Operations: GMD or No GMD: RDA Implementation for a Consortial Catalog

Library Resources & Technical Services, 2017
This paper explores the benefits of establishing item-specific terms for General Material Designations (GMDs) for library consortia implementing Resource Description and Access (RDA). While RDA includes a new approach towards the description and categorization of an item’s physical medium through the assignment of content, media, and carrier types ...

Close‐to‐nature management regulates ecosystem carbon storage through its effects on vegetation community structure in Pinus massoniana plantations

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Forest plantations play an increasingly important role in climate change mitigation through carbon sequestration, yet management strategies that enhance long‐term ecosystem carbon storage remain insufficiently understood. We investigated the effects of more than a decade of close‐to‐nature management on community structure and ecosystem carbon storage ...

Discovery of edodine, a natural compound from Lentinula edodes with antibacterial activity for the biological control of fire blight pathogen Erwinia amylovora

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Novel edodine was identified from Lentinula edodes HK761, exhibiting biocontrol potential against fire blight by affecting motility, intracellular ATP level, and cell division of Erwinia amylovora. Abstract BACKGROUND In the search for biological resources with antibacterial activity against Erwinia amylovora, the culture filtrate of Lentinula edodes ...

Optimization of Fluorescent Nanoparticles Architecture for Efficient Brightness, FRET Efficiency and Biosensing

Small Methods, EarlyView.
Architecturally controlled fluorescent polymer nanoparticles spatially confine BODIPY dyes within core‐shell‐crown compartments, enabling independent tuning of brightness and FRET efficiency. Core‐localized dyes maximize brightness, while shell positioning enhances energy transfer.

Modelling the Four‐Dimensional Power Line Sag Dynamics by Point Signature in Time‐Series Synthetic‐Aperture Radar Images

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Power lines in synthetic‐aperture radar (SAR) images are reflected as point signatures, which fluctuate annually in both the azimuth and range directions. A novel framework is proposed in this paper to evaluate the four‐dimensional dynamic status of power line sag using those point signatures in time‐series SAR images.

Elevated UV‐B alters anti‐herbivore plant defence allocation, while silicon supplementation maintains resistance

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The impacts of elevated surface ultraviolet‐B (UV‐B) on ecological processes, such as anti‐herbivore defence in plants, remain poorly understood. Many cereal crops depend on accumulating silicon (Si) in their tissues to resist insect herbivory.

Contrasting drivers of phosphorus dynamics across soil aggregates: The role of nutrient enrichment and mowing

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Phosphorus (P) is an essential but often limiting nutrient for sustaining grassland ecosystem functions. Its soil dynamics are highly sensitive to land management practices and may vary across soil aggregate sizes due to differences in biotic and abiotic factors ...

Genomic Investigations Unveil the Genetic Underpinnings of Environmental Adaptation in African Goat Populations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study integrates genomics and landscape genetics to analyze African goat environmental adaptation. Analyzing 1591 samples, it finds population structure differentiates geographically into four groups, with gene flow between wild Yura goats and North Africans.
