Basis risk, social comparison, perceptions of fairness, and demand for insurance: A field experiment in Ethiopia

Journal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.
Abstract Index insurance lowers agricultural risk but covers only covariate risks. Since farmers do not have complete insurance, they may develop mistrust of insurance when experiencing crop losses and not receiving payouts. Although recent innovations in remote sensing enable the provision of more complete insurance including coverage for ...

Sleep and cardiac autonomic modulation in older adults: Insights from an at‐home study with auditory deep sleep stimulation

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary The autonomic nervous system regulates cardiovascular activity during sleep, likely impacting cardiovascular health. Aging, a primary cardiovascular risk factor, is associated with cardiac autonomic disbalance and diminished sleep slow waves. Therefore, slow waves may be linked to aging, autonomic activity and cardiovascular health. However, it

Low abundance of phytophagous nematodes under invasive exotic Pinus elliottii – enemy release and plant–soil feedbacks

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary According to the enemy release hypothesis (ERH), the fitness of exotic plants and their capacity to become invasive in their area of introduction may partly be attributable to the loss of their natural enemies. Invasive species may also benefit from modifying soil attributes and thereby creating a positive soil–plant feedback.

OrchidMD: An Integrated and User‐Interactive Orchid Multi‐Omics Database for Mining Genes and Biological Research

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Orchidaceae family, with its unparalleled species diversity among angiosperms, is integral to ornamental, medicinal, cultural, and ecological value. Multi‐omics techniques have proven invaluable for the identification of candidate genes and the advancement of functional genomics research. Nevertheless, the application of these technologies

‘Candidatus Liberibacter Asiaticus’ Effector SECP8 Subverts Salicylic Acid‐Mediated Citrus Immunity via a Two‐Pronged Impairment of CsTCP15 Dimerization

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Citrus Huanglongbing (HLB), a devastating disease caused by the unculturable bacterium ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ (CLas), poses a severe threat to global citrus production. CLas secretes effectors to suppress host immune responses and facilitate its colonisation. Previously, the CLas effector SECP8 (CLIBASIA_05330) has been identified

Haploid Mutation Mapping Identifies a Homoeologous Non‐Reciprocal Translocation Linked to Reduced Fibre and Enhanced Protein in Brassica napus

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A key challenge for the genetic improvement of canola (Brassica napus), one of the world's most important oilseeds, is the limited natural variation for commercially important traits. The creation of new variation is hindered by the lack of functional knowledge about genes controlling these traits.

Navigating Academic Integrity in Doctoral Education: A Study of Misconduct in Doctoral Defence Practices in Mongolia

Higher Education Quarterly, Volume 80, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Doctoral defences play a critical role in safeguarding the integrity and credibility of doctoral education. In Mongolia, however, defence practices, administered through centralised committees rooted in Soviet academic traditions, face significant structural, cultural, and ethical challenges.

A Riemannian-Stein Kernel Method

, 2018
This paper presents a theoretical analysis of numerical integration based on interpolation with a Stein kernel. In particular, the case of integrals with respect to a posterior distribution supported on a general Riemannian manifold is considered and the

The Role of DEI and Meaningful Work in the Relationship Between CSR and Organizational Commitment

Business Strategy &Development, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The aim of this paper is to determine whether corporate social responsibility (CSR) practices have a positive effect on employees' organizational commitment, considering diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) as a mediating variable and meaningful work as a moderating variable in this relationship.
