Gender Lens Equity Funds: A Methodological Breadth–Accountability Depth Framework and Observed Outcomes

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite rapid growth in gender lens investing (GLI), substantial variation remains in how gender lens equity funds (GLEFs) integrate gender equality criteria into investment strategies. We map a universe of 43 GLEFs and develop a framework capturing gender equality screening breadth and accountability depth (fund‐level disclosure and ...

Effects of LED Light Exposure on Lutein and Bioactive Compounds in Nasturtium Flowers (Tropaeolum majus L.)

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Red LED supplementation during cultivation modulated the accumulation of bioactive compounds in Tropaeolum majus flowers. Moderate exposure (3–5 h) enhanced antioxidant capacity and increased carotenoids, phenolics, and anthocyanins depending on petal color, highlighting a simple strategy to improve the functional value of edible flowers. ABSTRACT This

Optimization of moisture content and application rate of hay preservative during high‐moisture alfalfa hay baling in northwestern China

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Leaf shatter during low‐moisture baling and mold proliferation under high‐moisture conditions pose major challenges in alfalfa hay production. A proprietary propionic acid‐based hay preservative product, LZP, effectively inhibits microbial reproduction in high‐moisture alfalfa bales; however, its optimal moisture thresholds and ...

Harnessing microbial metabolism and nutrition to target the gut–mammary axis for better livestock production and health

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
The gut–mammary axis integrates intestinal health with mammary function through neural, endocrine, and immune pathways. Nutritional interventions (probiotics, prebiotics, metabolites) improve gut microecology, generating microbial signals that travel via the axis to the mammary gland. There, they relieve inflammation, enhance milk quality and lactation,
