Research with Impact - Improving the Value of Loblolly Pine Forests through Fertilization. 7177. Reference ID: 24531 Note: #24531e Abstract: Loblolly pine is the most commercially important of the pine trees grown in the southern U.S. Unmanaged forests can take up to 50 years to mature, while managed stands can mature in as little as 20 years. Loblolly pine is very responsive to cultural treatments such as fertilization, thinning, and eliminating woody vegetation, yet little is known about how much extra wood and economic value can be gained from fertilization late in a rotation after thinning.

Luxemburg. pp 1 - 305. Reference ID: 24534 Note: #24534e Abstract: This study explores the feasibility of options to step up EU action against deforestation. Its results are presented in two reports: 'Part I: Background analysis and setting the scene: scale and trends of global deforestation and assessment of EU contribution' and 'Part II: A potential EU initiative on deforestation: possible interventions'. Part I analyses recent global and regional trends in deforestation and the linkages with the production and consumption of twelve key Forest Risk Commodities, with a focus on the role of the EU and its impacts. Further, the study reviews relevant EU policies, legislation and initiatives and ongoing international and regional efforts by private sector, governments and civil society. Building on the analytical insights gained in Part I, the Part II report makes suggestions on the framing of a possible EU initiative to tackle deforestation and its root causes and drivers. This includes specific objectives and a range of potential EU interventions tackling different dimension of the problem (supply and demand side drivers, as well as the role of finance & investments). All identified interventions are assessed against a shared set of assessment criteria: feasibility and effectiveness; political acceptance, technical complexity; and administrative costs. Given the complexity of the problem, any potential EU initiative should consider a package of interventions which addresses the Office 29C-03-08 Maritime Piazza, Karpal Singh Drive, 11600 Penang, Malaysia E-mail [email protected] • URL www.ipni.net/seasia supply, demand and finance dimensions, building on and reinforcing existing EU action as well as government and private sector commitments on zero deforestation and other relevant international initiatives.

Reference ID: 24535 Note: #24535e Abstract: The need for commercial fertilizers to supplement the soil supply of available nutrients for crops has been amply demonstrated by agronomic research. Research workers in agronomy and agricultural economics, recognizing the importance of economics of fertilizer use for crop production, began cooperating on research projects designed to estimate the most profitable rates of plant nutrients for different soils. This research provided information that enabled the farmers to make more efficient use of fertilizer, thereby leading to an over-all increase of efficiency in agricultural production. Because of the interest in the economics of fertilizer use, the research has undergone rapid development in recent years. Therefore, the objectives, procedures, and terminology of this research may seem obscure to those who are not familiar with it. [6] M. Barthel, S. Jennings, W. Schreiber, R. Sheane, S. Royston, J. Fry, Y.L. Khor, J. McGill. (2018). Study on the environmental impact of palm oil consumption and on existing sustainability standards. Luxemburg. pp 1 - 396. Reference ID: 24536 Note: #24536e Abstract: This report reviews environmental, social and economic aspects of palm oil production and consumption, and evaluates existing palm oil sustainability initiatives. There is clear evidence that the expansion of oil palm cultivation has resulted in deforestation, biodiversity loss, and net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Oil palm has in some instances expanded onto land traditionally used by indigenous and local communities. Labour abuses, including child and forced labour, are reported on a regular basis, but the evidence on how commonplace such practices are remains incomplete. Oil palm cultivation often provides a higher income for smallholders than other livelihoods, and thus contributes to the development of rural economies and to the overall economy of producing countries through its linkages. These economic benefits must be set against potential conflicts and the loss of ecosystem benefits, such as non-timber forest products. These environmental and social impacts are not exclusive to oil palm. They would apply in differing degrees to other crops planted on the same land. Furthermore, other sources of vegetable oils, among which the most important is soybeans, occupy much larger areas per tonne of oil produced, and have their own environmental and social impacts. Among certification schemes, the ISCC (EU) certification system generally addresses the environmental objectives of a range of EU and UN policies, principally because of its stringent definition of High Carbon Stock forests. The RSPO certification system addresses to the largest extent policy objectives relating to human, land, and labour rights. The current ISPO standard least addresses the policy objectives under consideration in this study, with limited protection for forest, and MSPO occupies an intermediate position. The governance and transparency of those four schemes, hence their level of independence vis-à-vis relevant interest groups, also vary. Although most producer countries have introduced environmental and social Page 2 of 151 regulations relating to palm oil, enforcement is often selective, incomplete or ineffective. Europe remains the leading market for sustainably sourced palm oil, but progress on the growing number of voluntary initiatives and commitments has been slow. There is limited penetration of sustainable palm oil in India and China. [7] COWI A/S. (2018). Feasibility study on options to step up EU action against deforestation: Inventory of existing EU policies, legislation and initiatives addressing the drivers of deforestation and forest degradation. Luxemburg. pp 1 - 102. Reference ID: 24537 Note: #24537e Abstract: This inventory of existing EU policies, legislation and initiatives has been developed as part of the Feasibility study on an EU Action Plan on deforestation, whose overall aim is to “define and assess policy options available to step up EU action on deforestation and forest degradation” (as per the European Commission’s Terms of Reference). For more background on the study please refer to the main report. This report presents the result of Task 1 of the study. The aim of Task 1, as per the ToR, is to conduct:- ‘a comprehensive mapping exercise of existing [and forthcoming] EU policy, legislation and initiatives that can address, directly or indirectly, the drivers of deforestation and forest degradation within and outside EU borders.’ The mapping exercise also covers selected Member State legislation, policy and initiatives and private sector initiatives. Section 2 of this report describes the approach used to identify and present the elements of the inventory. Detailed results are presented in a printable Word document that lists the full inventory (printable on A4). The inventory was prepared and completed as the first step of the study in 2016. It has not been further updated in the course of the study so the inventory reflects the state of play at the time of its completion (August 2016). [8] M. Trankner. 2017.

As principais características dos ‘Homoptera’ e dos Formicidae que favorecem as interações trofobióticas, tais como a excreção de honeydew por insetos sugadores, atendimento por formigas e necessidades fisiológicas dos dois grupos de insetos, são discutidas. Aspectos da sua evolução convergente são apresenta- dos. O sistema mais arcaico não é exatamente trofobiótico, as forrageadoras coletam o honeydew despejado ao acaso na folhagem por indivíduos ou grupos de ‘Homoptera’ não associados. As relações trofobióticas mais comuns são facultativas, no entanto, esta forma de mutualismo é extremamente diversificada e é responsável por numerosas adaptações fisiológicas, morfológicas ou comportamentais entre os ‘Homoptera’, em particular Sternorrhyncha. As trofobioses mais diferenciadas são verdadeiras simbioses onde as adaptações mais extremas são observadas do lado dos ‘Homoptera’. Ao mesmo tempo, as formigas mostram adaptações comportamentais que resultam de um longo período de coevolução. Considerando-se os inse- tos sugadores como principais pragas dos cultivos em nível mundial, as implicações das rela- ções trofobióticas são discutidas no contexto das comunidades de insetos em geral, focalizan- do os problemas que geram em Manejo Integrado de Pragas (MIP), em particular.

  • Paecilomyces and Its Importance in the Biological Control of Agricultural Pests and Diseases
    plants Review Paecilomyces and Its Importance in the Biological Control of Agricultural Pests and Diseases Alejandro Moreno-Gavíra, Victoria Huertas, Fernando Diánez , Brenda Sánchez-Montesinos and Mila Santos * Departamento de Agronomía, Escuela Superior de Ingeniería, Universidad de Almería, 04120 Almería, Spain; [email protected] (A.M.-G.); [email protected] (V.H.); [email protected] (F.D.); [email protected] (B.S.-M.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +34-950-015511 Received: 17 November 2020; Accepted: 7 December 2020; Published: 10 December 2020 Abstract: Incorporating beneficial microorganisms in crop production is the most promising strategy for maintaining agricultural productivity and reducing the use of inorganic fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides. Numerous microorganisms have been described in the literature as biological control agents for pests and diseases, although some have not yet been commercialised due to their lack of viability or efficacy in different crops. Paecilomyces is a cosmopolitan fungus that is mainly known for its nematophagous capacity, but it has also been reported as an insect parasite and biological control agent of several fungi and phytopathogenic bacteria through different mechanisms of action. In addition, species of this genus have recently been described as biostimulants of plant growth and crop yield. This review includes all the information on the genus Paecilomyces as a biological control agent for pests and diseases. Its growth rate and high spore production rate in numerous substrates ensures the production of viable, affordable, and efficient commercial formulations for agricultural use. Keywords: biological control; diseases; pests; Paecilomyces 1. Introduction The genus Paecilomyces was first described in 1907 [1] as a genus closely related to Penicillium and comprising only one species, P.

  • Bt Crops: Predicting Effects of Escaped Transgenes on the Fitness of Wild Plants and Their Herbivores
    Environ. Biosafety Res. 2 (2003) 219–246 © ISBR, EDP Sciences, 2004 DOI: 10.1051/ebr:2003014 Bt crops: Predicting effects of escaped transgenes on the fitness of wild plants and their herbivores Deborah K. LETOURNEAU1,*, Gaden S. ROBINSON2 and Joy A. HAGEN1 1 Department of Environmental Studies, University of California, Santa Cruz, USA 2 Department of Entomology, The Natural History Museum, London, UK One prominent concern about genetically modified crops is the possibility of environmental impacts from the movement of fitness-enhancing traits to wild plant populations. Decisions to deregulate Bt crops in the USA have relied strongly on arguments that these crops will not interbreed with wild relatives in the permitted growing regions. Limited attention therefore has been directed to analyses of the consequences of gene flow. To provide a transparent evaluation process for risks associated with insecticidal transgene escape, we crafted a series of questions designed to guide this aspect of the risk assessment. We then explored the current knowledge base available for answering such risk-related questions for three Bt crops (cotton, rapeseed, and rice). First, we generated a list of wild relatives of these crops. A definitive list of potential transgene recipients is not yet possible for some crops. Sufficient data are not available for some crops to eliminate certain related plant species from consideration of fertile hybrid formation, thus making lists for these crops subject to speculation. Second, we queried the HOSTS database (UK) to obtain a worldwide listing of lepidopteran species that feed on these crops and their wild relatives, and to determine the host range of the larvae.
