Do you know what’s in your salad 🥗? Of the 26,000 biomolecules found in the plants we eat, most are still unidentified, and their health effects generally unknown. Understanding these biomolecules is the goal of The Periodic Table of Food Initiative (PTFI) and it becomes even more important as climate change reduces available nutrients in some crops.

🌱 Exciting Update from UW: Reducing Enteric Emissions from Dairy Cows! 🐄🌿 We had a fantastic discussion yesterday about our ongoing efforts to reduce individual enteric emissions from dairy cows. We are dedicated to finding innovative solutions that benefit both the environment and the dairy industry. 💬 Watch or listen to the presentation to learn more about our groundbreaking initiatives. #Methane #DairyCattle #Genetics
Researchers from the University of Wisconsin-Madison are pioneering methods to curb methane emissions from dairy cows while improving cow efficiency - a move set to transform the industry. Learn how genetic insights offer hope for lower emissions, while milk spectral data promises smarter management strategies in a recent episode on The Dairy Signal >>> https://ow.ly/o90H50RtCyR "Reducing enteric methane emissions from dairy cattle" was originally presented on April 30, 2024, by Dr. Francisco Penagaricano, PhD, and Dr. Guillermo Martinez Boggio, PhD, from University of Wisconsin-Madison. Watch The Dairy Signal can be live every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.

Exploring the Role of the Phytobiome in Human Health In recent years, groundbreaking research has unveiled a captivating and intricate relationship known as the phytobiome. This emerging field of study has revolutionized our understanding of how plants, their associated microorganisms, the soil, and the environment collectively impact human and animal well-being via their respective gastrointestinal microbiomes1. 🌱 What Is the Phytobiome? The phytobiome encompasses the diverse assemblage of microorganisms inhabiting the soil, plants, and their surroundings. These tiny inhabitants play vital roles in plant growth, nutrient acquisition, composition, and stress tolerance. But here’s the fascinating twist: their influence extends far beyond the green realm. The phytobiome significantly impacts human health by shaping the food we consume and influencing our overall well-being. 📚 References: https://lnkd.in/g4ztxJ62

A new National Academy of Sciences Engineering and Medicine report explores the linkages between soil health and human health. The report finds that to improve soil health, federal agencies need to promote the importance of soil health, support translational research, and develop a coordinated national approach to monitor soil health over time. The report also says there is a pressing need to determine which microbial features, if any, contribute to quantifying or fortifying health in both human and soil systems and to understand the direct and indirect roles of soil, alongside other environmental factors, in influencing human microbial colonization and subsequent health outcomes.

In Earth's intricate web of life, humans and plants stand as two distinct pillars, each with unique metabolic, nutritional, and defence mechanisms. Understanding the parallels and divergences between these two kingdoms is not only a fascinating endeavour but also holds the potential to revolutionise our approaches to health, agriculture, and sustainability. In this insightful article, Professor Farooqe Azam, R&D VP at Bontera BioAg, explores the remarkable worlds of metabolism, nutrient uptake, gut health, root microbiomes, adaptation to environmental stress, immune responses, and the profound impact of plant compounds on human health. https://lnkd.in/dbTCrktc

New publication from the #ICC_WaterHealth, 1st-authored by our PhD students Iris Schachner-Gröhs & Michael Koller out in #WaterResearch (IWA Publishing): Linking #antibioticresistance gene patterns with advanced #faecalpollution assessment and environmental key parameters along 2300 km of the Danube #River. https://lnkd.in/dfme3aRt Highlights: • First systematic study on antibiotic resistance markers in the whole Danube River. • New holistic approach linking ARGs with advanced faecal pollution diagnostics. • Human faecal pollution as dominant factor for observed resistance patterns. • Hotspots identified in middle and lower river sections and in specific tributaries. • intI1 and sul1 detected ubiquitously, ESBL and carbapenemase genes at hotspots. Congrats to everyone involved! #AMR #OneHealth #water
I am extremely happy to share our freshly published paper on AMR in the Danube River, which contains key findings from my PhD project! 🔎 💧😍💧 🔍 Thanks to all the Co-Authors! https://lnkd.in/d3uXbiAx
