Skeletal pathologies in extant crocodilians as a window into the paleopathology of fossil archosaurs

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Crocodilians, together with birds, are the only extant relatives to many extinct archosaur groups, making them highly important for interpreting paleopathological conditions in a phylogenetic disease bracketing model. Despite this, comprehensive data on osteopathologies in crocodilians remain scarce.

Altered by Gold: A Comparative Zooarchaeological Analysis of 19th to 20th Century Chinese and British Migrants in Ravenswood, a Northern Queensland Gold Mining Town

Archaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gold discoveries transformed the 19th century British colony of Queensland, Australia, driving migration, a second wave of pastoral expansion northwards, and an increasingly diverse population. This study presents a comparative and contextual zooarchaeological analysis of British and southern Chinese food waste—globally significant migrant ...

Toward Sustainable Enzyme Production From Agro‐Industrial Residues: Optimizing pH and Soyhull Particle Size in Fungal Fermentation

Journal of Surfactants and Detergents, EarlyView.
Sustainable enzyme production from soyhull fermentation. ABSTRACT Carbohydrase enzymes are critical to sustainable detergent formulations, enabling effective cleaning at lower temperatures and reduced resource use. To improve the economic and environmental viability of enzyme production, this study explored soybean hulls—a low‐value agricultural by ...

Partial resistance to leaf rust in a collection of ancient Spanish barleys

, 2001
A collection of 569 Spanish barley accessions was screened for resistance to leaf rust (Puccinia hordei Otth) in the field at Cordoba during the 2000-2001 season. The level of resistance ranged from very low to very high.

Crop genotypic richness enhances biomass production and phosphorus acquisition in maize‐mycorrhiza symbiosis

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Our study tests how soil and plant biodiversity can enhance sustainability of crop production in Kenya. We tested whether mixtures of maize varieties performed better than monocultures and tested their response to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Mycorrhizal responsiveness differed significantly by maize variety, and genetic mixtures outperformed ...

Characterization of the cytochrome [beta] gene in plant pathogenic, basidiomycetes and consequences for QoI resistance [PDF]

, 2005
Strobilurins are one of the most important classes of agricultural fungicides, which are also known as Qo inhibitors (QoIs) because they inhibit mitochondrial respiration by binding to the Qo (‘Quinone outside’) site of the cytochrome b.

Breeding for multi‐stress resilience in crops: Myth or possibility?

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change threatens millions of farmers worldwide by exposing crops to multiple concurrent or sequential environmental stresses such as drought, heat, waterlogging, and diseases. Although crops have long been selected under naturally occurring multi‐stress conditions, breeding pipelines largely focus on optimal or single‐stress environments ...

Uredinopsis pteridis and Desmella aneimiae, the first rust fungi (Pucciniales) reported on ferns (Pteridophyta) in Australia

, 2014
Two species of rust fungi, Uredinopsis pteridis on Pteridium esculentum and Desmella aneimiae on Nephrolepis hirsutula, are reported from Australia. These are the first records of rust fungi on species of fern in Australia and the first reports of the ...
