Crisis, adaptation and recovery: A phase‐based exploration of Austrian non‐profit organizations during COVID‐19

open access: yesAnnals of Public and Cooperative Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract The COVID‐19 pandemic has severely impacted the external environment of social service non‐profit organizations (NPOs), resulting in diverse management challenges. Our study investigates how social service NPOs in Austria experienced these challenges and how they developed internal coping mechanisms.

Animal Teachers: Nonhuman Pedagogy and the Question of Deceit

open access: yesEducational Theory, EarlyView.
Abstract Animals as “teachers” of human children and adults is a recurring theme in children's literature, in anthropological accounts of “feral children,” as well as in contemporary practices of animal‐assisted pedagogy, philosophical research, wildlife documentaries, and popular culture.

The ZmRACK1–ZmCDPK7–ZmAPX1 module regulates plant antiviral immunity

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In maize, ZmRACK1 acts as a scaffold protein that bridges the cyclin‐dependent kinase ZmCDPK7 and the ascorbate peroxidase ZmAPX1, promoting ZmAPX1 activity to mitigate MCMV infection. Upon viral infection, P31 obstructs formation of the ZmRACK1‐ZmCDPK7‐ZmAPX1 complex, inhibiting ZmCDPK7‐mediated ZmAPX1 activity and promoting reactive oxygen species ...

Enriched rice husk biochar superior to commercial biochar in ameliorating ammonia loss from urea fertilizer and improving plant uptake

open access: yesHeliyon
Adding value to agricultural leftovers and turning them into biochar is a viable way to replenish soil nutrients and boost crop productivity. To further validate the efficacy of enriched rice husk biochar, an incubation study and a pot experiment were ...

Fixing Rice Stubble Burning for Delhi's Air: Technological Solutionism and Agrarian Governance in Haryana

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Every winter, Delhi's polluted air draws national attention to the burning of rice stubble in neighbouring states. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in Haryana in north India, this article shows how bureaucrats and scientists attempt to enact certainty around technological solutions to stubble burning even while privately acknowledging their ...

Effect of Two Therapeutic Renal Diets on Hormonal and Regulatory Pathways Affecting Calcium Homeostasis in Cats With Early‐Stage Chronic Kidney Disease

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a known risk factor for hypercalcemia in cats. Phosphate‐restricted diets have also been implicated in causing hypercalcemia, in part because phosphate restriction increases the Ca:P ratio. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of two different therapeutic renal foods on ionized (iCa ...

The combination of morphogenic regulators BABY BOOM and GRF‐GIF improves maize transformation efficiency and promotes leaf regeneration

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Maize regeneration via somatic embryogenesis by ectopic expression of morphogenic factors TaGRF4‐TaGIF1 and ZmBBM. Summary Transformation is an indispensable tool for plant genetics and functional genomics. Although stable transformation in maize is no longer a major obstacle, there remains a need for accessible and efficient methods for academic ...

Increasing the Soil Resistance Value in the 20 kV Medium Voltage Distribution Network using the Soil Treatment method

open access: yesProtek: Jurnal Ilmiah Teknik Elektro
This study aims to enhance soil resistivity in a 20 kV electrical distribution network using a mixture of rice husk ash and mangrove wood charcoal. Rice husk ash is an additive known to reduce grounding resistance due to its water-absorbing properties ...

Revisiting the Molecular Roadmap for Sugar Crops: Genome Reading, Trait Writing and Variety Redesigning

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sugar crops, including but not limited to sugarcane, sugar beet, sweet sorghum and stevia, are major sources of sugar production in the world. However, conventional breeding approaches, limited by long breeding cycles, low efficiency and restricted capacity to improve complex traits in sugar crops, are increasingly insufficient to address the ...

A Robust Framework for Maize Elite Line Genome Editing Through Enhanced HI‐Edit via LbCas12a Activity Optimization

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Haploid induction coupled with genome editing (HI‐Edit) enables direct modification of commercial crop varieties, bypassing the need for trait introgression or direct transformation of elite lines with CRISPR machinery. However, its widespread application has been constrained by low haploid editing rates (HER), the proportion of haploids ...
