The growing consumer awareness of climate change and the resulting food sustainability issues have led to an increasing adoption several emerging trends. Some these trends been strengthened by emergence fourth industrial revolution (or Industry 4.0), its innovations technologies that fundamentally reshaped transformed current strategies prospects for production consumption patterns. In this review a general overview revolutions through perspective will be provided. Then, knowledge base regarding acceptance eight traditional animal-proteins alternatives (e.g., plant-based foods insects) more recent cell-cultured meat 3D-printed foods) updated. A special focus given impact digital other 4.0 on shift toward greener, healthier, sustainable diets. Emerging promising potential promote nutritious animal-based products. This literature narrative showed are largest portion alternative proteins but intensive research is being done with sources (notably insects animal products). Recent technological advances likely significant roles in enhancing sensory nutritional properties, improving perception foods. Thus, new predicted continue growing, although effort should made make products convenient, nutritious, affordable, market them consumers positively emphasizing their safety benefits.

Water physicochemical factors and oxidative stress physiology in fish, a review

Frontiers in Environmental Science, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 11

Опубликована: Сен. 15, 2023

Fish are among the best-studied aquatic animals due to their economic and ecological values. meat is most affordable protein source for economically weaker section of people. The environment almost all ecosystems has a specific influential role on or by fishes. Therefore, studying stress biology, especially oxidative stress, vital because it can influence growth, production, reproduction, etc. To review above topic, peer-reviewed electronic databases, including Web Science, science direct, PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, AGRICOLA, were searched with keywords associated fish, diseases, abiotic such as effects water dissolved oxygen, temperature, salinity, hardness, alkalinity, pH, pollutants, heavy metals, anthropogenic activities, was reviewed in current article draw conclusion updated relation that exists between fish physiology, disease, stressors. Oxidative redox regulatory levels under parameters anti-stress responses differ various models. Undoubtedly, factors modulate health status greater extent, therefore, these must be considered priority basis improve general immunity fish. statement remains valid both saline freshwater habitats.

CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing in crop breeding for climate change resilience: Implications for smallholder farmers in Africa

Journal of Agriculture and Food Research, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 16, С. 101132 - 101132

Опубликована: Март 28, 2024

Food insecurity and malnutrition, compounded by climate change, are seriously threatening the growing African population. Unpredictable precipitation patterns droughts contributing to declining crop productivity. Efforts increase agricultural productivity include adoption of crops that resistant change engaging in resilient agriculture. Currently, CRISPR-Cas9 (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats - associated protein) technology is being used breeding practices improve traits such as drought tolerance, nutrition disease resistance. The aim this review explore use developing for mitigation food hunger attendant implications small holder farmers Africa. A comprehensive systematic search peer reviewed articles three bibliographic databases, PubMed, Web Science Google Scholar, was conducted identify documents relevant applications CRISPR-mediated genome editing improvement context. literature shows CRISPR-Cas has been harnessed enhance resilience nutritional content various crops, combatting biotic abiotic stresses. CRISPR-assisted strategies can help smallholder low-middle income countries Africa adapt without loss. By harnessing technology, benefit from with improved yields stress resistance thereby security sustainable agriculture on continent.

Synergistic power of genomic selection, assisted reproductive technologies, and gene editing to drive genetic improvement of cattle

CABI Agriculture and Bioscience, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 3(1)

Опубликована: Март 4, 2022

Abstract Genetic improvement of cattle around the globe has been, and will continue to be, an important driver animal agriculture sustainability. There are several reproductive molecular biotechnologies that used in genetic cattle, their impact on rate progress is maximized when combined synergistically a structured breeding program with clear objective. One most recently developed increasingly popular tools, gene editing, allows breeders precisely add, delete, or replace letters code so as influence specific trait interest (e.g., disease resistance), little one generation. However, for editing be factor improvement, it must integrate smoothly into conventional programs maintain accelerate rates gain. This review first summarizes current state key available then discusses potential strategies effectively incorporating methods disseminating traits improved via editing. Moreover, examines how strategies, including use differ depending industry sector (i.e., dairy beef), region world which they being deployed.

Soil Remediation: Towards a Resilient and Adaptive Approach to Deal with the Ever-Changing Environmental Challenges

Environments, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 9(2), С. 18 - 18

Опубликована: Янв. 25, 2022

Pollution from numerous contaminants due to many anthropogenic activities affects soils quality. Industrialized countries have contaminated sites; their remediation is a priority in environmental legislation. The aim of this overview consider the evolution soil consolidated invasive technologies environmentally friendly green strategies. selection technology no longer exclusively based on eliminating source pollution but aims at remediation, which includes recovery “Green remediation” appears be key addressing issue sites as it focuses quality, including preservation environment. Further developments reflect promoting clean-up strategies that also address effects climate change. Sustainable and resilient faces challenge achieving targets while reducing damage caused by interventions must involve an awareness social systems are closely connected.

Integrating genomics and genome editing for orphan crop improvement: a bridge between orphan crops and modern agriculture system

GM crops & food, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 14(1), С. 1 - 20

Опубликована: Янв. 6, 2023

Domestication of orphan crops could be explored by editing their genomes. Genome has a lot promise for enhancing agricultural output, and there is interest in furthering breeding crops, which are sometimes plagued with unwanted traits that resemble wild cousins. Consequently, applying model crop knowledge to allows the rapid generation targeted allelic diversity innovative germplasm. We explain how plant breeders employ genome as novel platform accelerate domestication semi-domesticated or plants, resulting more diversified base future food fodder supplies. This review emphasizes both practicality strategy need invest research advances our understanding genomes, genes, cellular systems. Planting these abandoned help alleviate scarcities challenge climate crises.

Genome Editing and Improvement of Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Crop Plants

Life, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 13(7), С. 1456 - 1456

Опубликована: Июнь 27, 2023

Genome editing aims to revolutionise plant breeding and could assist in safeguarding the global food supply. The inclusion of a 12–40 bp recognition site makes mega nucleases first tools utilized for genome generation gene-editing tools. Zinc finger (ZFNs) are second technique, because they create double-stranded breaks, more dependable effective. ZFNs were original designed nuclease-based approach editing. Cys2-His2 zinc domain’s discovery made this technique possible. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) improve genetics, boost biomass production, increase nutrient usage efficiency, develop disease resistance. Plant genomes can be effectively modified using genome-editing technologies enhance characteristics without introducing foreign DNA into genome. Next-generation will soon defined by these exact methods. There is abroad promise that genome-edited crops essential years come improving sustainability climate-change resilience systems. This method also has great potential enhancing crops’ resistance various abiotic stressors. In review paper, we summarize most recent findings about mechanism stress response crop plants use CRISPR/Cas mediated systems tolerance stresses including drought, salinity, cold, heat, heavy metals.
