Enhanced scab resistance in apple conferred by Rvi6 and polyploidy is linked with distinct shifts in the phenolics profile by Švara, Anže, Mikulič Petkovšek, Maja, Veberič, Robert, Keulemans, Wannes, De Coninck, Barbara, Carpentier, Sebastien, De Storme, Nico

“…Our study revealed differences in total and specific phenolic contents across the tested genotypes with significant correlation to Rvi6-based resistance and a minor effect of polyploidy herein. In particular, procyanidin dimer levels appeared positively correlated with the level of resistance, indicating a putative functional role in scab resistance. …”

Some rootstocks improve pepper tolerance to mild salinity through ionic regulation by Penella, Consuelo, Nebauer, Sergio G., Quinones, Ana, San Bautista, Alberto, López-Galarza, Salvador, Calatayud, Ángeles

“…Higher salt tolerance was achieved when the ‘Adige’ cultivar was grafted onto the 12 genotype, which allowed not only lower Na+ and Cl− accumulation in the scion, but also ion selectivity maintenance, particularly Na+/K+ discrimination. These traits led to a minor negative impact on photosynthesis, nitrate reductase activity and lipid peroxidation in grafted scion leaves. …”

Farming System and Nematodes Affect the Rhizosphere Microbiome of Tropical Banana Plants by Colagiero, Mariantonietta, Pocasangre, Luis, Ciancio, Aurelio, Pentimone, Isabella, Rosso, Laura Cristina

“…The banana cultivation and, to a minor extent, the field management type influenced the rhizosphere ASV and OTUs abundances, with a higher diversity found in organic versus conventional crops, with the organic control as the most biodiverse. …”

Small scale pig production in Takeo province in a rural area of Cambodia by Wallberg, Emilia

“…Farmers mainly culture rice, and raise pigs, cattle and poultry as well. During two months, a minor field study was performed in Cambodia. The main purpose was to evaluate the impact of contributions done by projects that started in 2005 and were managed by the local organization CelAgrid. …”

Characterization of smallholder mixed crop–livestock systems in integration with spatial information: In case Ethiopia by Amejo, A.G., Gebere, Y.M., Kassa, H., Tana, T.

“…The difference within a similar AEZ could probably be a result of a minor level of farm systems manipulation. The major difference associated could essentially be with a difference in agroecology and spatial variability of the farm households.…”

Diversity of rumen microbiota using metagenome sequencing and methane yield in Indian sheep fed on straw and concentrate diet by Malik, P.K., Trivedi, S., Kolte, A.P., Sejian, V., Bhatta, R., Rahman, Habibur

“…It can be inferred from the study that the hydrogenotrophic methanogens dominate the rumen archaeal community in sheep and methylotrophic/aceticlastic methanogens represent a minor fraction of the community. Further studies are warranted for establishing the metabolic association between the prevalent hydrogenotrophs and methylotrophs to identify the key reaction for reducing methane emission.…”

Effective Strategies to Mitigate Methane Emissions by Ruminants by Arndt, Claudia

“…Notably, by 2030 and 2050, low- and middle-income countries may not meet their contribution to the 1.5°C target for this same reason, whereas high-income countries could meet their contributions due to only a minor projected increase in enteric CH4 emissions.…”

A mid-density single-nucleotide polymorphism panel for molecular applications in cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp) by Ongom, Patrick Obia, Fatokun, Christian, Togola, Abou, Garcia Oliveira, Ana Luisa, Eng Hwa Ng, Kilian, Andrzej, Lonardi, Stefano, Close, Timothy J., Boukar, Ousmane

“…The panel was informative, with over 78% of SNPs exceeding a minor allele frequency of 0.20. The panel decoded three stratifications in the constituted population, as was expected. …”

Misreporting month of birth: Diagnosis and implications for research on nutrition and early childhood in developing countries by Larsen, Anna Folke, Headey, Derek D., Masters, William A.

“…We explain the size of the December–January gap through simulation in which 11 % of children have their birth date replaced by a random month. We find a minor impact on the average stunting rate but a larger impact in specific error-prone surveys. …”

Whither Participation? Evaluating Participatory Policy Processes Using the CGPE Approach: The Case of CAADP in Malawi by Henning, Christian, Hedtrick, Johannes, Séne, Ligane Massamba, Krampe, Eva

“…An empirical application of the CGPE model to CAADP reforms in Malawi delivered the following results: (i) inefficient agricultural policies mainly result from lack of adequate political knowledge, while biased political incentives play only a minor rule. (ii) Policy beliefs of political practitioners differ significantly from economic models. …”

A mechanistic understanding of the effect of lime and compost on soil cadmium availability in cacao farms by Wiersma, Wietse, Favaro, Anna, Comans, Rob N.J., Pulleman, Mirjam Margreet, Groenenberg, Jan E.

“…Additionally, we used diffusive gradient in thin film (DGT) devices to gain insight into Cd availability over time. Despite being a minor adsorption surface for Cd compared to organic matter, the MSM-assisted interpretation of DGT results suggests an important role for clay particles in Cd buffering. …”

Mucuna Species: recent advances in application of biotechnology by Jorge, M.A.B., Eilittä, M., Proud, F.J., Maasdorp, B.V., Beksissa, H., Sarial, A.K., Hanson, Jean

“…Mucuna is also used as a minor food crop in many countries and interest in it as livestock feed - a common use for it in the early 1900s in the USA and elsewhere - is growing. …”

A widespread facultative hemi-parasitic weed, threatening rice production in Africa by Rodenburg, J., Morawetz JJ, Bastiaans, L.

“…Apart from tropical Australia, it is only found in sub-Saharan Africa, where it is considered a minor weed in cereal crops such as rice. Due to this status, the species has received only sporadic attention. …”

Severity of Fusarium ear rot and concentration of fumonisin in grain of Argentinian maize hybrids by Presello, Daniel Alberto, Iglesias, Juliana, Botta, Grisela, Eyherabide, Guillermo

“…Positive phenotypic (0.79<rp>0.89) and genotypic (0.85<rg>0.98) correlations between symptom severity and concentration of fumonisins indicated that genotypic effects for concentration of fumonisins in grain mainly depended on genotypic effects for disease resistance, and that visual ratings of disease severity might be used as a preliminary selection criterion to eliminate hybrids accumulating the highest levels of fumonisins. Since a minor proportion of genotypic variability for concentration of fumonisins in grain did not depend on disease severity, these hybrids might vary in frequency or expression of genes affecting production of fumonisins by F. verticillioides after colonization.…”
