Pesticide Supply Chains From China to Australia: Examining Paraquat Amid the Global Pesticide Complex

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Following recent calls to deepen understanding of the Global Pesticide Complex, this article delves into the China‐to‐Australia supply chain of a single herbicide—paraquat. First released in the United Kingdom in the 1960s, acutely toxic paraquat is now primarily produced in China.

Beyond Immunity: Functional Outcomes of Dietary Yeast and Seaweed β‐Glucans in Adult Canine Nutrition

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT β‐Glucans are functional compounds associated with health benefits; however, the physiological effects of different β‐glucan sources in dog foods remain incompletely understood. This study evaluated and compared the effects of β‐glucans derived from Euglena gracilis (seaweed) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast) on nutrient digestibility ...

Revisiting the Molecular Roadmap for Sugar Crops: Genome Reading, Trait Writing and Variety Redesigning

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sugar crops, including but not limited to sugarcane, sugar beet, sweet sorghum and stevia, are major sources of sugar production in the world. However, conventional breeding approaches, limited by long breeding cycles, low efficiency and restricted capacity to improve complex traits in sugar crops, are increasingly insufficient to address the ...

Kinship and reproduction: A perspective of the Akha in Laos

The Australian Journal of Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract Drawing on fieldwork among the Akha people in Phongsaly District, Phongsaly Province, northern Laos, this paper examines Akha patrilineal kinship and its links to reproduction. The Akha people's reproductive decisions and behaviours are shaped by patrilineality, ancestral connections and cultural–spiritual perceptions of reproduction, which ...

High‐throughput phenotyping for the prediction and quantification of flower‐related traits in sugarcane

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.), a C4 plant, is a vital renewable biofuel and sugar source for industries worldwide. However, synchronizing flowering between parental lines often poses challenges for breeders, hindering effective crossbreeding efforts.
