Growing maize landraces in industrialized countries: from the search for seeds to the emergence of new practices and values

In industrialized countries, maize cultivation is mainly associated with the use of hybrid varieties and input-intensive monocultures. Despite the homogeneity of European maize landscapes, alternative models of maize production based on landraces exist. Un ...

Greater Contribution From Agricultural Sources to Future Reactive Nitrogen Deposition in the United States

Athanasios Nenes, Shuai Shao

Many sensitive ecosystems in areas protected for biodiversity conservation in the United States suffer from exposure to excess reactive nitrogen (Nr) released by fossil fuel combustion and agricultural practices and deposited onto the land surface and wate ...

Species identity, rather than species mixtures, drives cover crop effects on nutrient partitioning in unfertilized agricultural soil

Alexandre Buttler, Pierre Rémi Mariotte, Mathieu Raymond Santonja, Lucas Georges Jean-Paul Freund

Aims Previous cover crop studies mainly focused on the links between plant uptake and soil fertility, and there is a clear knowledge gap regarding the role of microbes in these processes. Our aim was then to better understand the effects of plant mixtures ...

High amounts of antibiotic resistance genes and Class I integrons are disseminated in rivers of the Mekong delta (Viet Nam) from the effluents of intensive shrimp farms

Pierre Rossi, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Emmanuelle Rohrbach

In the Mekong delta, intensive shrimp farming rely heavily on a wide panel of antibiotics (ABs) to prevent disease epidemics. Consequently, large amounts of antibiotic multi-resistant bacteria are emerging, threatening adjacent aquatic habitats used for ir ...

MVDC Distribution Fed High Power Multi-Motor Drives

Uzair Javaid

High power variable speed drives play a major role in many industrial applications. At the moment, these high power loads are supplied by the source (grid/generator) through the state-of-the-art MVAC power distribution network. The voltage levels, in these ...

Towards sustainable, antibiotic-free shrimp farming in the Mekong delta, Vietnam

Vincent Jean Jacques Marie Cochevelou

The context of the present project is the reduction of the dispersal of ARGs into the environment issued from shrimp culture basins in the Mekong Delta, Viet Nam. Bacterial resistances to ABs are generated by the indiscriminate use of these compounds for f ...

Thermal profile construction for energy-intensive industrial sectors

François Maréchal, Ivan Daniel Kantor, Greta Martha Van Eetvelde, Maziar Kermani, Anna Sophia Wallerand, Hür Ebuzer Bütün, Alessio Santecchia, Franz Wolf

Industrial plant data are difficult to find in academic literature for a number of reasons such as confidentiality, and thus intentional masking, or problem size reduction. These common practices limit the ability of researchers to apply novel methods to r ...

Analysis of antibiotic multi-resistant bacteria and resistance genes in the effluent of an intensive shrimp farm (Long An, Vietnam)

Pierre Rossi, Luiz Felippe De Alencastro

In Vietnam, intensive shrimp farms heavily rely on a wide variety of antibiotics (ABs) to treat animals or prevent disease outbreak. Potential for the emergence of multi-resistant bacteria is high, with the concomitant contamination of adjacent natural aqu ...

Improving slash-and-burn agriculture in Central Menabe, Madagascar

Justine Marie Gay des Combes

Slash-and-burn agriculture is considered as an important driver of deforestation in the tropics. In Madagascar, a biodiversity hotspot, this type of agriculture particularly threatens the tropical forest cover. On the south-western coast of the island, in ...

Impact of nitrogen inputs on multiple facets of plant biodiversity in mountain grasslands: does nutrient source matter?

François Gillet

Questions: What is the impact of nitrogen (N) inputs on the vegetation of mountain permanent grasslands? Beyond the effect of fertilizer quantity (total and available N supply), is there a specific effect of fertilizer quality (the various N sources) on th ...
