The sustainability of global agricultural trade: understanding stickiness in Brazil’s soy supply chain by Tiago Nogueira Pimenta Dos Reis29 SepCommodity trade is central to the global economy but is also associated with socio-environmental impacts, for example, deforestation, especially in producer countries. It is crucial to understand how geographic sourcing patterns of commodities and commercial relationships between places and actors influence land-use dynamics, socio-economic development, and environmental degradation.En savoir plus

Delivering zero deforestation : How governance interventions in agro-food commodity supply chains can foster sustainable land use22 SepAgro-food commodity consumption is intricately linked to the loss of the planet’s forests. Complex, global agro-food supply chains, which are shaped by globalization processes, tie distant places together, causing consumption in one region to affect land-use in another region, in particular, to drive deforestation.En savoir plus

Genomic study of hybridization and introgression between two annual plant species by Khaled Mirzaei02 SepThe general framework of this work is study of hybridization between two Rhinanthus species (Orobanchaceae), Rhinanthus minor L. and Rhinanthus major using advanced genomics tools. These species are annual hemi-parasitic plants in which hybridization and introgression have been documented before.En savoir plus

Temperature rise and water stress effects on four bee-pollinated species and impacts on bumblebee foraging behaviour by Charlotte Descamps25 AugLes changements climatiques impactent les écosystèmes à l’échelle du globe. Dans les régions tempérées, on constate depuis plusieurs décennies des modifications climatiques telles que des sécheresses plus fréquentes ainsi qu’une température moyenne plus élevée. Or, ces deux paramètres - la disponibilité en eau et la température - sont fondamentaux pour le développement des plantes.En savoir plus
