Modelling grass pollen load in temperate and Mediterranean European areas based on source spatial distribution
between airborne pollen and potential emission sources was established compared to human-managed grasslands and crops. Wild grassland distribution explained between 60-70% of the variance of the mean grass ...

crops, fruits/berries, leafy and root vegetables, sequentially. Afterwards, a sampling of nine different kinds of fruits and vegetables from the Belgian market was accomplished. In total, 103 samples were ...
Genome Editing in Agriculture: Methods, Applications, and Governance—A paper in the series on The Need for Agricultural Innovation to Sustainably Feed the World by 2050
land and water caused by global population growth, as well as the challenges climate change poses to agriculture, genome editing for crop and livestock improvement is garnering increasing attention. This ...
Tobacco, Sunflower and High Biomass SRC Clones Show Potential for Trace Metal Phytoextraction on a Moderately Contaminated Field Site in Belgium.
The use of high yielding crops with a sufficiently high metal accumulation is preferred as these are expected to both gradually decontaminate the soil while generating an income through biomass ...
