Integrated Single‐Cell and Spatial Transcriptomics Reveal Cell‐Type‐Specific Immune Regulatory Networks in Maize Responding to Southern Corn Rust

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
By integrating single‐nuclei and spatial transcriptomics, this study presents a stereoscopic landscape of maize leaf to Puccinia polysora infection. Epidermal and mesophyll cells initiate primary defenses via RLPs/RLKs and jasmonic acid signaling. Cell‐cell communication analyses further reveal the underlying the dynamics of the underlying immune ...

Vertical farming

open access: yes, 2013
De globale trend van bevolkingsgroei en verstedelijking leidt onherroepelijk tot meer vraag naar voedsel in de stad. Tegelijkertijd is er een trend in de vraag naar duurzaam en/of lokaal geproduceerd voedsel te herkennen. Het in de stad produceren van voedsel, Urban Farming, kan een antwoord bieden op beide trends.

The Impact of Vertical Integration Intensity on Broiler Farms Technical Efficiency: The Case of Contract Farming in West Sumatera

open access: yesTropical Animal Science Journal, 2019
Contractual arrangements of different types have increasingly found in West Sumatera not only in subsistence and commercial crops but particularly also in livestock sector.  Contract farming in livestock agribusiness is generally defined as broiler farms

NIBV Induces Incomplete Autophagy via AMPK‐TFEB, Causing Kidney Injury in Chicks

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that NIBV can inhibit the nuclear translocation of TFEB by suppressing the expression of AMPK, leading to the blockade of autophagolysosomal functions, in turn increasing NIBV replication and triggering severe kidney injury in chicks.

Trade, Food Standards and Poverty: The Case of High-Value Vegetable Exports from Senegal [PDF]

open access: yes
Agricultural supply chains are changing globally with pervasive food standards and increased vertical coordination. The impact of these changes for developing countries and for small farmers in those countries is not yet well understood.

Advancements and challenges in agriculture: a comprehensive review of machine learning and IoT applications in vertical farming and controlled environment agriculture [PDF]

open access: yesBig Data and Computing Visions
Farming is not easy to approach things, as we must feed approximately 8 million people daily. Traditional farming is an old-fashioned technique that takes so much time to produce.

Organ‐Specific and Conserved Regulatory Logic Orchestrates Gene Expression in the Embryonic Mesothelium

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Integrated multi‐omic profiling maps the gene‐regulatory landscape of the coelomic mesothelium across heart, lung, and pancreas. A cardiac‐restricted regulatory program is uncovered in which TBX20 activates heart mesothelial (epicardial) cis‐regulatory elements, while MAF emerges as a conserved regulator of mesothelial identity.
