Biodiversity and ecosystem services in agricultural landscapes - are we asking the right questions? por Swift, M.J., Izac, A.M.N., Noordwijk, Meine van

“…The exceptions may be traditional systems where intrinsic values (social customs) continue to provide reasons for diversity maintenance. High levels of biodiversity in managed landscapes are more likely to be maintained for reasons of intrinsic, serependic (‘option’ or ‘bequest’) values or utilitarian (‘direct use’) than for functional or ecosystem service values. …”

Diurnal changes in shoot water dynamics are synchronized with hypocotyl elongation in Arabidopsis thaliana por Ishikawa, H., Sato-Nara, K., Takase, T., Suzuki, H.

“…We recently demonstrated the circadian clock modulated water dynamics in the roots of a small model plant, Arabidopsis thaliana, by the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) microimaging technique. Our developed technique was able to visualize the water distribution that depended on differences in the 1H signal among region in the shoot, such as the shoot apex, the hypocotyl and the root shoot junction. …”

The lowest hanging fruit: Beneficial gene knockouts in past, present, and future crop evolution por Monroe, J.G., Arciniegas Vega, Juan Pablo, Moreno, J.L., Sánchez, F., Sierra, S., Valdés, S., Torkamaneh, D., Chavarriaga, P.

“…Here we trace the history and future of loss of function as a powerful mechanism of crop evolution and review the reasons gene knockouts might have been particularly important in past crop evolution and why they continue to be a “lowest hanging fruit” for directing crop evolution through molecular breeding in pursuit of more productive, resilient, and nutritious crops.…”

Understanding Difference to Build Bridges among Stakeholders: Perceptions of Participation in Four Multi-stakeholder Forums in the Peruvian Amazon por Sarmiento Barletti, J.P., Larson, A.M., Heise Vigil, N.

“…The research finds that participants are often optimistic about the forums, but at the same time they are aware of risks; and that groups falling into both camps may be just as likely to fail to address inequality among participants but for different reasons. The results help identify points of convergence and divergence, and potential ways forward to help construct more equitable and effective MSFs.…”
