Sugarcane variety as a determinant of agro-industrial performance and physicochemical quality in pot still cachaça production

open access: yesCiência e Agrotecnologia
The predominance of a single sugarcane variety (RB867515) or unidentified genotypes in cachaça production may limit both agronomic efficiency and beverage quality.

Key agronomic and ecological factors impacting moth borers populations and their natural enemies in the context of sugarcane expansion and intensification. : S1012TU02 Integrated Pest Management [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Global intensification and expansion of agricultural areas for more food and energy products is expected to change pest-plant interactions and the related ecosystem services. For example, intensification of agronomic practices, land use change, landscape

AGRICULTURE IN A SOCIALIST CITY: Towards an Alter‐Urban Political Ecology

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Urban political ecology has developed as a critique of capitalist urbanization. This article develops the concept of alter‐urban political ecology to define urban environments emerging not from capitalist urbanization but from efforts to transform it. Drawing on archival research and ethnographic fieldwork in five urban farms in socialist Cuba,

Does Rodent Management Impact the Distribution of Rattus rattus and Mastomys natalensis in Village Settings?

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Ecological differences between species may result in differential impacts of control measures. Our experimental study showed that intensive removal of rodents from houses (mostly Rattus rattus) resulted in increased use of houses by Mastomys natalensis, a species usually found outdoors. Our results suggest that M.

SOIL SALINIZATION AND ITS EFFECTS ON MORPHO-PHYSIOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF SUGARCANE VARIETIES

open access: yesRevista Geama, 2017
Brazil is one of the world’s largest sugarcane producers, and its cultivation has extreme economic importance. The Sub-Mid São Francisco Valley region presents high sugarcane yield indexes, but this region also has areas with high salinity levels.

How innovation systems emerge to solve ecological problems: Biofuels in the United States and Brazil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper discusses the re-emergence of biofuel innovation systems in the United States and Brazil. We argue that innovation systems emerge and evolve to solve a problem, and that the way the problem is framed and articulated has a significant impact on

Effects of applying Trichoderma asperellum to rice (Oryza sativa) on phytobiome and plant responses

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
We investigated the effect of dipping at transplanting or post‐transplanting spray application on the root‐associated microbiome or leaf epiphytes via amplicon sequencing, and on plant responses via RNA‐seq. Both root dipping and foliar application with Trichoderma asperellum spore suspension only had a limited impact on the leaf epiphytes and root ...
