Hermetic bags remain effective in minimizing storage loss after four successive cycles of reuse in Mexican highlands por Odjo, Sylvanus, González Regalado, Jessica, Saldivia Tejeda, Abel, Guera, O.G. Mariel, Verhulst, Nele

“…All bags were perforated after the first cycle of storage; the silage plastic bag was the most affected and had to be changed after the second storage cycle. These perforations were caused by the activity of insects inside the bags in their attempt to escape the low-oxygen conditions created by the bags’ airtightness. …”

When school overlaps with farming: Measuring reduced educational advancement and simulating solutions in Africa por Allen IV, James

“…Though those colonial regimes are mostly gone, SSA school calendars still do not change often: According to the UNESCO Institute for Statistics, of 45 SSA countries from 1997-2019 (over 900 country-years), there are only six instances of countries permanently shifting the start or end months of their school calendar by two months or more: Angola and Ghana both lengthened their calendars, and Malawi, Rwanda, South Sudan, and Tanzania shifted their calendars once. …”

CRISPR-Cas9 and CRISPR-Cpf1 mediated targeting of a stomatal developmental gene EPFL9 in rice por Zhang, Shilai, Hu, Jian, Yang, Chundao, Liu, Haitao, Yang, Feng, Zhou, Jihua, Samson, Ben K., Boualaphanh, Chanthakhone, Huang, Liyu, Huang, Guangfu, Zhang, Jing, Huang, Wanqi, Tao, Dayun, Harnpichitvitaya, Dome, Wade, Len J., Hu, Fengyi

“…This study also utilized the CRISPR-LbCpf1 (Lachnospiracaebacterium Cpf1) to target the same OsEPFL9 gene to test the activity of this class-2 CRISPR system in rice and found that Cpf1 is also capable of genome editing and edits get transmitted through generations with similar phenotypic changes seen with CRISPR-Cas9. This study demonstrates the application of CRISPR-Cas9/Cpf1 to precisely target genomic locations and develop transgene-free homozygous heritable gene edits and confirms that the loss of function analysis of the candidate genes emerging from different systems biology based approaches, could be performed, and therefore, this system adds value in the validation of gene function studies…”

Proteome analysis of rice (Oryza sativa L.) mutants reveals differentially induced proteins during brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens) infestation por Sangha, Jatinder, Chen, Yolanda, Kaur, Jatinder, Khan, Wajahatullah, Abduljaleel, Zainularifeen, Alanazi, Mohammed, Mills, Aaron, Adalla, Candida, Bennett, John, Prithiviraj, Balakrishnan, Jahn, Gary, Leung, Hei

“…Ten proteins were altered in susceptible mutant (D1131) whereas abundance of 12 proteins including S-like RNase, Glyoxalase I, EFTu1 and Salt stress root protein “RS1” was differentially changed in resistant mutant (D518). S-like RNase was found in greater quantities in D518 after BPH infestation but remained unchanged in IR64 and decreased in D1131. …”
