Publications from Future Food
Christopher Chagumaira and colleagues have published a new paper on the way professional groups respond to information presented as probabilities in the International Journal of Geographical Information Science.
Crops that can cope with harsh growing conditions are important as we enter a phase of agriculture marked by unpredictable weather events and increasing climate change. Published in Plant, Cell & Environment, Rahul Bhosale and colleagues have investigated the role root angle plays in maize's ability to improve nitrogen capture.
A new study from Festo Massawe and others, in Food and Energy Security, provides fundamental knowledge of quantitative trait loci associated with yield-related and morphological traits under drought-stressed and well-watered conditions in bambara groundnut, information essential for yield improvement of bambara groundnut in response to drought stress.
Bipin Pandey and colleagues have a new paper out in The Plant Cell, investigating the development of primary roots in rice seedlings.
The effects climate change might have on the dairy supply chain have been analysed by Rachel Gomes and colleagues, and they suggest mitigation and alternative strategies for the dairy industry.
Understanding how neurohormonal brain-gut signalling regulates appetite is important for developing obesity and altered eating behaviour therapies. A new neuroimaging meta-analysis, published in Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, by Sarah Althubeati, Andrew Salter, Sally Eldeghaidy and colleagues identifies the caudate nucleus and hypothalamus as the key area associated with satiety regulators.
Recent reviews in Plant, Cell & Environment include how breeding for specific root traits can improve crop resilience in Africa and the significance of root hairs in developing stress resilient plants.
Thomas Alcock, David Salt and others have published on the importance of sustainability in oil crop production.
