Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.Heat‐stressed soybeans adapt to elevated temperatures through coordinate regulation of destructive and protective protein expression ‐ suppressing detrimental proteins while enhancing beneficial ones. ABSTRACT Soybean represents the largest imported agricultural product in China. Imported soybeans are typically transported via maritime shipping. During

Breeding switchgrass for reduced nitrogen demand
Grassland Research, EarlyView.Breeding has improved switchgrass biomass yield, but productivity is still heavily dependent on nitrogen fertilizer application. The genetic diversity needed to improve nitrogen use efficiency of switchgrass remains underused, mainly because of the slow and laborious breeding process, thus leaving the crop's high nitrogen demand as a major barrier to ...

Regional Price Differences in Urban China 1986-2001: Estimation and Implication [PDF]
Despite the intensive efforts made by economists to examine regional income inequality in China, limited attention has been paid to disentangle the contribution of regional price differentials.

Characterisation of Drought and Wet Events in the Paraíba do Sul River Basin—Brazil
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Trend analysis identified statistically significant reductions in precipitation (at the 5% significance level) at specific pluviometric stations in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, while other areas, mainly in Minas Gerais, experienced significant increases in annual and seasonal rainfall, particularly during summer and spring. These significant trends at

Abstract Business and cost justification of software process improvement
, 2008 One of the major obstacles for the adoption of software process improvement (SPI) is the reluctance of business management to invest in SPI. Usually this is because of the lack of convincing evidence of the return on investment.

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.We downscale CanESM2 with the Regional Climate Model version 4 (20 km) and evaluate against 15 stations to derive monthly PET (Hargreaves–Samani) and SPEI for northeastern Iran (1990–2009, 2040–2059, 2080–2099). Results show robust PET increases and a shift toward more negative monthly SPEI—especially April–September—indicating earlier onset and longer

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND Accurate quantification of soybean storage protein subunits glycinin (11S) and β‐conglycinin (7S), and their ratio (11S/7S), is essential for applications in plant breeding, food processing, and allergen research. Although sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS‐PAGE) is widely used due to its accessibility ...

Oikos, EarlyView.By dispersing seeds, frugivorous animals affect spatial co‐occurrence of plants, ultimately influencing plant community dynamics. Frugivorous animals are intrinsically involved in plant community dynamics, by dispersing seeds of fleshy‐fruited plants and influencing their spatial co‐occurrence.
