Deacetylation and Mechanical Refining Pathway for the Bioconversion of Sugarcane BagasseNARA Subscribed
Advancing lignocellulose biorefining is imperative for the deployment of cellulosic (2G) biofuels. This work investigates the tailoring of the alkaline deacetylation and mechanical refining (DMR) pathway for the bioconversion of sugarcane bagasse. Experiments are conducted at laboratory and pilot scales, varying the pretreatment conditions (70–92 °C; 48–100 g NaOH /kg) and the mechanical refining technologies (PFI and disk ref...
Water pollution drives environmental degradation in a seasonally influenced Neotropical coastal riverNARA Subscribed
Aquatic and coastal ecosystems are increasingly altered by human activities, particularly through the removal of riparian vegetation, pollution, urbanization, and biological invasions. This study aimed to assess environmental conditions and identify a gradient of human disturbance in the Guaraguaçu River, located on the coastal plain of southern Brazil and subjected to multiple stressors. To achieve this, we evaluated land use...
Under the current global biodiversity crisis, there is a need for automated and noninvasive monitoring techniques that can gather large amounts of data cost‐effectively at various ecological scales, from local to large spatial scales. These data can then be analyzed to inform stakeholders and decision‐makers. One such technique is passive acoustic monitoring, which is commonly coupled with automatic identification of animal sp...
Aim The urgency for remote, reliable and scalable biodiversity monitoring amidst mounting human pressures on ecosystems has sparked worldwide interest in Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM), which can track life underwater and on land. However, we lack a unified methodology to report this sampling effort and a comprehensive overview of PAM coverage to gauge its potential as a global research and monitoring tool. To address this...
Despite the ecological importance of sandy beaches, the diversity and distribution of macrocrustacean communities in the eastern Mexican coast (Mexican coast of the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea) remain understudied. As the first large-scale sampling effort along the eastern Mexican coast, this study aimed to estimate macrocrustacean diversity and evaluate sampling methodologies, while providing historical context for macro...
Pathology of peritonitis in cattleNARA Subscribed
Background Arabidopsis thaliana primary root growth has become a model for evo-devo studies due to its simplicity and facility to record cell proliferation and differentiation. To identify new genetic components relevant to primary root growth, we used a Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) meta-analysis approach using data published in the last decade. In this work, we performed intra and inter-studies analyses to discover...
DNA-based studies and genetic diversity indicator assessments are complementary approaches to conserving evolutionary potentialNARA Subscribed
Genetic diversity is essential for maintaining healthy populations and ecosystems. Several approaches have recently been developed to evaluate population genetic trends without necessarily collecting new genetic data. Such “genetic diversity indicators” enable rapid, large-scale evaluation across dozens to thousands of species. Empirical genetic studies, when available, provide detailed information that is important for manage...
