Physiological dominance of the scion in shaping root architecture under suboptimal temperature

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Non‐optimal temperatures have become a major constraint on plant development under rapidly changing climatic conditions. Both suboptimal and supra‐optimal temperatures reduce physiological activity, alter plant morphology, lead to plant mortality, and ultimately decrease crop productivity.

Business Model and Sustainable Development Goals for an Innovative Agricultural Waste Management: Distributed Biogas Production

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Technological progress and population growth have increased global pork demand; leading to a rise of methane emission from pig farming, a key contributor to climate change. Anaerobic digestion offers a sustainable solution by converting manure into biogas.

Different Substrate Selectivity and Product Patterns of Immobilized Thermophilic Lipases from Geobacillus stearothermophilus, Anoxybacillus flavithermus, and Thermomyces lanuginosus for Glyceryl Decanoate Synthesis

ChemEngineering
Lipases can catalyze synthesis reactions in a micro aqueous system, producing useful partial glycerides (mono- and diglycerides), and these compounds are commonly utilized in different products as surfactants.

Environmental drivers influencing the ambrosia beetle community: The primary role of geographic and climatic drivers in chestnut‐growing areas

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Ethanol‐baited traps were placed in cultivated chestnut orchards (a) and mixed environments with assorted tree composition (b), over a 2‐year monitoring period in two valleys (NW Italy). A total of 118,286 ambrosia beetles was collected, representing six species.

Characteristics of a Thermophilic Bacteriophage.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1955
Summary1. A new thermophilic phage host system has been studied and described. It has been designated a thermophilic phage because the greatest number of infectious units was produced at 65°C, above or below which the number of particles was considerably less. 2. Phage is adsorbed very slowly, the maximum amount taken up being 85% in 30 minutes.

Emulsifying activity in thermophilic and extremely thermophilic microorganisms

Journal of Industrial Microbiology, 1996
Thermophilic and extremely thermophilic enrichments from several different environments produced cell-associated emulsifiers as did several pure cultures ofArchaea. The bioemulsifiers were effective over a wide range of pH, at NaCl concentrations up to 200 g L−1, and at temperatures up to 80°C.

Towards an ‘absolute’ timing of biostratigraphic and environmental phases from the Saalian late glacial to the Weichselian pleniglacial in central Europe—Insights from a lacustrine succession in Lichtenberg, northern Germany

Boreas, EarlyView.
Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.
