Root rot pathogens restrict pea and wheat production globally. In the EU, pea and pea-based cereal mixtures are being promoted; however, root rot pathogen dynamics in such mixtures are poorly understood. Winter pea and wheat were grown either in pure stands or in mixtures in the field in western France, and the severity of root rot in pea, wheat, and their mixtures, as well as the key pathogens associated with these crops, were assessed.

- * Researchers used single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers to analyze 235 durum wheat accessions, revealing two main genetic groups and significant phenotypic variation related to tan spot resistance over multiple cropping seasons.
- * The genome-wide association study identified 26 SNPs linked to tan spot resistance, with varying degrees of phenotypic variation explained, and several markers coinciding with previously known SNPs for disease resistance.
Rituals of territorial belonging as established practices of inclusion improve dynamics of belonging and coexistence. They are particularly significant in the city where people need rituals to trust each other. But what happens when rituals disappear? The Covid-19 pandemic is an experiment on a societal level on the role of rituals.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFDigital rock physics offers powerful perspectives to investigate Earth materials in 3D and non-destructively. However, it has been poorly applied to microporous volcanic rocks due to their challenging microstructures, although they are studied for numerous volcanological, geothermal and engineering applications. Their rapid origin, in fact, leads to complex textures, where pores are dispersed in fine, heterogeneous and lithified matrices.

Methods: longitudinal and retrospective study, conducted between January 2010 and December 2013, with 737 patients of both sexes submitted to RYGB or SG and evaluated in the preoperative, 1 and 5 years after bariatric surgery (BS). Age, height, body weight, Body Mass Index (BMI), biochemical and pressure parameters were recorded.
