Changes of Photosynthetic Performance of Brassica napus Affecting Cadmium Phytoextraction Performance under Elevated Temperature, CO2 and Drought

(Corresponding) Dikšaitytė A., Žaltauskaitė J., Kniuipytė I., Januškaitienė I., Juknys R.
Topic: 
Heavy metals in the environment
This study aimed to investigate the Cd-removal efficiency from the soil by rapes (Brassica napus L.) under changing climate conditions, i.e. elevated temperature and CO2 with or without additional drought stress. As photosynthesis is the most important primary metabolic process, determining plant...Read more

Sustainable development assessment on Grass-based circular business models for rural agri-food value chains (GO-GRASS)

(Corresponding) Mosquera-Losada M., Rodríguez-Rigueiro F., Ferreiro-Domínguez N., Álvarez-López V., Franco-Grandas T., Rigueiro-Rodríguez A., Santiago-Freijanes J.
Topic: 
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
Climate change affects temperate areas by increasing the risk of suffering extreme climatic events and sharping major problematics. Moreover, climate change and its related effects jeopardize water and food supply. Rural areas are key for sustainable development and provide socio-economics...Read more
