- Advances and perspectives on the ecology and management of Castanea speciesPublication . Marcolin, Enrico; Clark, Stacy L.; Patrício, Maria Sameiro; Loewe-Muñoz, VerónicaSpecies of chestnut (Castanea spp.) are naturally widespread throughout temperate forests of the northern hemisphere in Asia, Europe, and North America. Populations have been naturalized outside of species’ native ranges in Europe, North America, South America and Oceania. The wide diffusion on a planetary level over tens of millions of years has resulted in high genetic variability within the genus and spe- cies adaptations to disparate environmental conditions (Dane et al., 2003; Mellano et al., 2012; Krebs et al., 2019). Perhaps more than many other tree species, the history of chestnut has been closely linked to human civilizations who utilized chestnut as an agricultural and forest resource over millennia. Chestnut species have had important cultural significance for Indigenous communities, although much Traditional Ecological Knowledge has been lost (Barnhill-Dilling and Delborne, 2019), and chestnut species have been subjected to challenges of the contemporary Anthropocene, from globalization to climate change. Al- terations to disturbance regimes, particularly related to drought and fire, and the introduction of nonnative pests and pathogens, have reduced genetic diversity and population densities, particularly for species in North America, Europe, and western Asia (Mellano et al., 2012; Dalgleish et al., 2016). Forest management practices, genomic tools, tree breeding, and prediction models have been developed and tested to meet these challenges (Jacobs et al., 2013; Fernandes et al., 2022). Most strategies, however, are underdeveloped and species spe- cific, including for American chestnut (Burnham et al., 1986; Ana- gnostakis, 2012; Fei et al., 2012) and sweet chestnut (Conedera et al., 2016; Manetti et al., 2019; Marcolin et al., 2020; Patrício et al., 2020). A global perspective for chestnut sustainability, conservation, and man- agement has largely been missing in the literature, excluding pro- ceedings from International Chestnut Symposia (e.g., Double and MacDonald, 2014).
- Advances in Methods and Technologies for Carcass and Meat Quality EvaluationPublication . Silva, Severiano; Teixeira, AlfredoThe importance of advanced methods and technologies in the meat industry has increased significantly in the last decade, reflecting broader trends in consumer demand and food safety. In this way, integrating advanced methods and technologies in the meat industry is not only meeting current challenges, but also paving the way for a more sustain- able, efficient, and consumer-oriented future. As the industry evolves, these innovations will be critical in addressing global food security, health, and environmental issues sup- ported by objective and reliable data. Hence, this Special Issue brings advances in different meat animal species and topics related to meat quality. Thus, articles were published to assess the meat characteristics of the Portuguese Bísaro pig breed; to characterize flavor volatiles in parts of Chinese Lueyang black chicken; the quality characteristics of the meat from dual-purpose poultry; the impact of dietary energy and protein levels on the qual- ity and metabolomic profile of Yunshang black goats’ meat and the degradation of the intramuscular connective tissue with cathepsin L.
- Book review of grazing communities: pastoralism on the move and biocultural heritage frictions edited by Letizia BindiPublication . Sa Rego, JulioPastoralism has long offered a privileged field of research for producing contextualised ethnographies on mobile communities living on the fringes of society. These ethnographies described pastoral systems of specific communities with a feeble orientation towards the connection of the local anthropological observations with more universal theoretical and political debates. Times have changed. Anthropology has begun to approach more systematically other social and environmental disciplines which has contributed to a shift in pastoralism studies in recent years. Thematic publications are now increasing with the aim of connecting local pastoralism to global (economic, social, cultural, or environmental) challenges from a transdisciplinary lens. Grazing Communities: Pastoralism on the Move and Biocultural Heritage Frictions, edited by Letizia Bindi, falls positively within this modern anthropological movement. From a multi-disciplinary perspective, it brings a diversity of ethnographic cases of pastoralism in Europe to establish a global narrative on intangible heritage frictions related to transhumance. Each book chapter explores the dynamics of transhumance in a different mountain region of Europe: Albania (Chapter 5), Bosnia and Herzegovina (Chapter 13), Finland (Chapter 11), France (Chapter 3), Greece (Chapter 1), Italy (Chapters 2, 6, 7, 10, and 12), Poland (Chapter 8), Romania (Chapter 9), and Spain (Chapter 4). As a whole, the case studies permit first to strengthen the critical argument that pastoralism holistically shares mobile convergent trajectories of livelihood embedded in nature and confronted with environmental injustice and social subordination.
- Closing Editorial: New Insights into Food Ingredients for Human Health PromotionPublication . Ribeiro, Andreia; Barreiro, FilomenaIn recent years, the intersection of food science and health promotion has gained interest. Driven by consumer awareness and a global push toward healthier, safer, and more sustainable food systems, the demand for functional, fortified, and clean-label products has grown substantially. In response to these evolving expectations, this Special Issue of Applied Sciences, titled “New Insights into Food Ingredients for Human Health Promotion”, brings together research and review articles that explore the development, characterization, and application of bioactive compounds with the potential to promote human health. These contributions reflect a commitment to innovation in food ingredient science, offering solutions that are both effective and aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals.
