Eco‐Geography Reverses Dominant AMR Reservoirs in Klebsiella pneumoniae: Integron‐Rich Mobilomes and Cross‐Niche Connectivity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Dominant antimicrobial resistance reservoirs in Klebsiella pneumoniae vary across eco‐geographic settings rather than following a universal pattern. Integrated One Health and global genomic analyses show that lineage structure, integron load, and cross‐niche connectivity shape whether AMR burden accumulates primarily in human or nonhuman compartments ...

Foliar Fertilization-Induced Rhizosphere Microbial Mechanisms for Soil Health Enhancement

Agronomy
Foliar fertilization can influence soil health by altering soil physicochemical properties and nutrient cycling processes; however, its underlying mechanisms remain insufficiently understood. Here, we compared soils under two treatments—foliar fertilizer

Sustainable Productivity Growth in Agriculture: The Role of Shifts in R&D Investments and Technology

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The objective of the paper is to evaluate the long‐term prospects of sustainable productivity growth linked to plausible assumptions on public agricultural R&D investments as the key productivity driver. Second, it investigates the role of changing R&D focus from yield maximization to input saving technologies (fertilizers and pesticides). The

Identification of hydrogen oxidation coupled with antimonate reduction, a novel antimony biogeochemical cycling, in two contrasting antimony-contaminated environments

Microbiome
Background Antimony (Sb) contamination is a serious environmental problem owing to its extensive production worldwide. High concentration of Sb is often detected in mining-contaminated environments, leading to the risk of contamination to the downstream ...

Soil Degradation Processes from Pollution

Chemistry Journal of Moldova, 2012
Investigations found HCH and DDT residuals in bottom sediments from several reservoirs and lakes as well as the main rivers, Nistru and Prut (concentrations ranged between 0.2 and 15.8 ppb). The concentration of PCBs in the topsoil collected beneath the capacitors battery at the Vulcănesti substation reached a level of 7100 ppm which is exceeding the ...

Climate Change Mitigation in the Dairy Sector: Uncovering Heterogeneity Through Eco‐Efficiency Clubs

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Combining climate change goals with economic targets is crucial for the dairy sector, which is a significant contributor to agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions worldwide. In this paper, we assess economic and climate change implications of dairy production with panel data of Irish dairy farms from 2013 to 2021.
