Past, present and future of local crop evolution

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).

From Tobacco to Ultraprocessed Food: How Industry Engineering Fuels the Epidemic of Preventable Disease

open access: yesThe Milbank Quarterly, EarlyView.
Policy Points Ultraprocessed foods (UPFs) are engineered to heighten reward and accelerate delivery of reinforcing ingredients, driving compulsive consumption and disrupting appetite regulation. This is a growing challenge for health policy. UPFs share key engineering strategies adopted from the tobacco industry, such as dose optimization and hedonic ...

A preventive strategy for the control of aphids in sweet pepper using lacewings and micrococcinelid beetles

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Aphids pose a serious risk to horticultural crops. Current biocontrol strategies often fail due to the poor establishment of natural enemies when aphids are scarce. We evaluated the potential of two aphidophagous predators, Micromus variegatus and Scymnus interruptus, to be used as preventive biocontrol agents, released before aphid infestation.

Thaumatin‐Like Proteins in Molecular Allergy Diagnostics: Uncommon, Co‐Sensitized, and Clinically Inconspicuous? Insights From an Italian Cohort

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
This study assessed the prevalence, quantitative IgE levels, co‐sensitization patterns, and clinical significance of IgE reactivity to two TLPs—Act d 2 (kiwi) and Mal d 2 (apple)—in a large Italian allergic cohort. Thaumatin‐like protein (TLP) sensitization was uncommon (1.9%) and usually clinically silent when isolated.
