Physicochemical, Functional, and Health‐Promoting Properties of Processed Nettle (Urtica Dioica) Leaves: A Review

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Stinging nettle (Urtica dioica L.) leaves are a nutrient‐dense source of proteins, dietary fiber, chlorophylls, carotenoids, and phenolic compounds. Processing technologies enable the production of powders and extracts for incorporation into bakery, beverage, dairy, and nutraceutical products; however, challenges remain regarding sensory quality ...

Temperate and Tropical Forest Canopies are Already Functioning beyond Their Thermal Thresholds for Photosynthesis [PDF]

, 2018
Tropical tree species have evolved under very narrow temperature ranges compared to temperate forest species. Studies suggest that tropical trees may be more vulnerable to continued warming compared to temperate species, as tropical trees have shown ...

Marine Macroalgae as a Safe Healthy Food While Meeting Food Security Challenges Arising From Climate Changes

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Planned harvesting and processing of marine macroalgae could meet future global food needs and mitigate fuel‐originated carbon dioxide responsible for climate change. Microalgal foods are nutritious and safe. The utilization of macroalgae would avoid environmental problems arising from the release of overgrowing macroalgae caused by heatwaves, which ...

Mechanisms of nitrogen deposition effects on temperate forest lichens and trees

Ecosphere, 2017
We review the mechanisms of deleterious nitrogen (N) deposition impacts on temperate forests, with a particular focus on trees and lichens. Elevated anthropogenic N deposition to forests has varied effects on individual organisms depending on ...

Simultaneous 3/4‐power scaling of leaf mass and 2/3‐power scaling of leaf area with stem mass in plants

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Plant allometry theory developed in the last century focused on 2/3‐power scaling, determined by light interception considerations. More recently, 3/4‐power scaling based on the properties of vascular distribution networks has been proposed.

Gut virome orchestrates nitrogen partitioning between the host and microbiome

iMeta, EarlyView.
Under normal protein intake, lytic phages promote bacterial turnover, releasing microbial nitrogen that can be assimilated by the host and thereby revealing phage‐mediated lysis as a potential pathway for host nutrient acquisition. Under protein restriction, however, phages shift toward a lysogenic strategy, reducing bacterial death and microbial ...
