Avian Muscle Development and Growth Mechanisms: Association with Muscle Myopathies and Meat Quality
This eBook is a collection of articles from a Frontiers Research Topic. Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers Journals Series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject. With their unique mix of varied contributions from Original Research to Review Articles, Frontiers Research Topics unify the most influential researchers, the latest key findings and historical advances in a hot research area! Find out more on how to host your own Frontiers Research Topic or contribute to one as an author by contacting the Frontiers Editorial Office: frontiersin.org/about/contact.
Improving standards and certification in agri-food supply chains
Considers a range of techniques used for measuring compliance and improving performance across the agri-food supply chain, including those used to measure on-farm carbon footprints and biodiversity Provides a useful and comprehensive context to the role of governments and other food safety agencies in setting safety, quality and sustainability standards for global agri-food supply chains Reviews the key issues in developing voluntary standards, focussing on those encountered during the development of robust carbon-neutral and biodiversity offsetting certification schemes
Climate-smart production of coffee
Unique focus on achieving more resilient, ‘climate-smart’ coffee cultivation Distinctive agroecological approach based on improving cultivation through optimising ecosystem services Comprehensive coverage of the value chain in coffee cultivation, from breeding to pest management and post-harvest practices
Sustainable production and postharvest handling of avocado
Collates over 30 years’ worth of research into sustainable avocado production by one of the most prominent experts in the field Provides a comprehensive overview of the avocado supply chain and how key elements of this value chain can be optimised to improve avocado production Reviews the nutritional value and potential health benefits of avocado, as well as its application in medicine, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics
Understanding and improving crop photosynthesis
Provides a comprehensive review of the wealth of research which addresses how to sustainably achieve higher yields through improving the rate of C3 photosynthesis in crops Assesses current practices implemented to optimise photosynthesis in crops, including the modification of crop elements such as leaf/canopy architecture Explores our understanding of the biophysics, biochemistry and genetics of C3 photosynthesis in crops and how this can be used to improve photosynthesis in C4 and C3 crops
Advances in precision livestock farming
Provides a comprehensive review of the recent developments in precision livestock technologies, from wearable sensors, to thermal imaging techniques Covers the latest research on the application of precision livestock technologies in monitoring livestock health Highlights the potential of precision livestock technologies to reduce the environmental impact of livestock production
Advances in poultry genetics and genomics
Particular focus on improving functional traits needed for more resilient poultry breeds Comprehensive coverage of key advances in genomic selection and their practical application in breeding improved breeds of layers and broilers Looks forward to emerging trends such as the use of epigenetics and genome editing
Frontiers in agri-food supply chains
Provides a comprehensive overview of the challenges facing agri-food supply chains, including the need to be more sustainable in light of the high environmental costs of global distribution Addresses the external factors that can impact the logistics and performance of supply chains, including political developments, international conflicts and pandemics such as COVID-19 Reviews the main agri-food supply chains used in different regions around the world, focussing on those implanted in the Americas, Europe, Africa, Asia and the Middle East
