This document summarizes a review on the potential of water buffalo in world agriculture. It discusses water buffalo's role in agriculture, their global population distribution, and phylogenetic classification. It then reviews the current state of knowledge on the molecular determinants of economically important traits in water buffalo like longevity, disease resistance, milk production, and growth. It finds that while knowledge is available, more data is still needed on these traits through genome sequencing and functional genomics to enable precision breeding and farming. Future research using systems approaches can help advance science and technology for sustainable water buffalo production.
Shojinmeat Project : Clean meat initiative April 2018Yuki Hanyu
This document discusses the Clean Meat Initiative and cellular agriculture. It proposes democratizing cellular agriculture through open source and DIY bio projects. Current projects include cell culture experiments, workshops, advocacy, and art related to cellular agriculture. The document outlines how meat production is resource intensive and alternatives include clean meat produced by culturing muscle cells. Technological milestones to achieve cost parity with conventional meat include inexpensive culture media, scaling production through automation, and adding value through texture and flavor. Summaries of ongoing research efforts are provided to lower the cost of culture media and scale production methods.
This document discusses the importance of understanding agriculture's past to help feed the future world. It highlights several key points:
1. Studying the past is key to understanding the future of agriculture. Early farmers began selectively breeding crops like rice in China over 6,000 years ago.
2. The science of agricultural origins was pioneered by Nikolai Vavilov in the early 20th century who identified centers of origin for crops. New techniques like radiocarbon dating and DNA analysis are unlocking more information.
3. Agricultural diversity is important for the future as genes from crop wild relatives and landraces can be transferred to crops to provide benefits like flood tolerance. Understanding patterns of genetic diversity is crucial.
This document summarizes an article about the possibility of producing meat in laboratories as an alternative to factory farming. It discusses Winston Churchill's prediction in 1932 that animal parts could be grown separately for food. Currently, the global livestock industry accounts for 20% of greenhouse gas emissions. The document outlines the issues with factory farming in terms of animal welfare and the environment. It notes that lab-grown meat could potentially use half the energy and 2% of farmland compared to conventional meat production. However, there are still many technical difficulties to overcome before lab-grown meat becomes commercially viable.
This document provides an overview of in vitro meat production. It begins with introducing meat and the large number of land animals killed annually for consumption. It then defines in vitro cultured meat as meat produced through tissue engineering techniques rather than slaughter. The history of the concept is traced back to the 1950s. Key ingredients for production include stem cells, culture media, bioreactors and scaffolds. Main techniques include scaffolding, self-organizing approach, organ printing, biophotonics and nanotechnology. Advantages include avoiding animal slaughter and reducing environmental impacts, though high production costs currently limit scale. In conclusion, cultured meat could potentially be healthier while eliminating many issues with conventional meat production.

Regulation & Technology in cellular agriculture, IntegriCulture Inc.Yuki Hanyu
The document discusses regulation and technology for cellular agriculture. It describes cell-based meat production using muscle cells in bioreactors with culture medium. Current cell culture is expensive due to growth factors. The document proposes the CulNet System, which uses co-cultured cells to produce serum and signal compounds, bypassing expensive growth factors and enabling cheaper cell culture. It addresses potential regulatory issues and how cell-based meat is considered legal food in Japan under existing laws if produced without gene edits using HACCP-controlled processes like the CulNet System. Inclusive rulemaking with various stakeholders is emphasized to build public acceptance necessary for products to avoid regulatory suspension.

This document discusses in-vitro or cultured meat as a solution to issues with conventional meat production. It outlines the process of growing meat from stem cells in bioreactors, using scaffolds and growth factors. Advantages include reduced environmental impact, animal welfare issues, and ability to engineer composition. Challenges include consumer acceptance, high costs, and replicating taste and texture. The document concludes that while cultured meat offers sustainability benefits, commercial production remains difficult currently.
The document discusses concerns with the current animal farming system, including environmental impacts, ethical issues, nutritional problems, and financial costs. It then introduces in vitro meat production as an alternative that could address these concerns. In vitro meat is created by growing animal cells in a lab setting without the need to raise and slaughter live animals. The document outlines several methods for producing in vitro meat, from traditional culturing to more advanced techniques like scaffolding, organ printing, biophotonics, and nanotechnology. It suggests in vitro meat could offer a healthier, more affordable and sustainable option compared to conventionally produced meat.
Arabadopsis Thaliana Quorum Sensing ProposalBeau Smith
This grant proposal aims to test the effects of expressing quorum sensing inhibitors (QSIs) in Arabidopsis thaliana on resistance to food crop pathogens. The researchers hypothesize that A. thaliana transformed to express farnesol and QsdH will show increased resistance to Pseudomonas syringae and Puccinia triticina compared to wild-type plants. They plan to use CRISPR/Cas9 to generate plants expressing QSIs from different promoters and expose them to pathogens. If successful, this research could help reduce crop losses from disease without pesticides and provide insights into clinical applications of quorum sensing inhibition.
Alternative proteins could substitute traditional proteins, if production cost can be substantially reduced. Cell-based protein production replicates the processes that occur inside a living animal to produce meat. In precision fermentation, gene-edited microbes can make a wide range of organic molecules, such as protein. Swine and ruminants are more susceptible to disruption than poultry, as their easy-to-substitute mince products make up a higher share of value, while substitution of animal-based proteins also opens up new growth platforms, as growing world population still need proteins, albeit from different sources
The Organic Center is committed to providing peer-reviewed research on the health and environmental benefits of organic agriculture through studies and education. It has a board of directors from universities, companies, and organic advocates. The document presents information on nutrients, pesticides, climate change, GMOs and cloning that show benefits of organic farming and risks of conventional methods.

This document discusses arguments against mandatory labeling of genetically engineered foods. It argues that such labeling would be misleading to consumers and undermine consumer choice, environmental sustainability, and efforts to address world hunger. The document asserts that genetically engineered crops have been proven safe based on scientific research and have environmental benefits over conventional agriculture by reducing pesticide use. However, mandatory labeling could increase food costs by requiring changes to production and supply chains to avoid the GE label. Overall, the document concludes that widespread acceptance rather than fear of genetically engineered foods will be necessary to sustainably feed the growing global population.
This document discusses genetically modified foods (GMOs) and public attitudes towards them. It provides statistics showing the global production of major GMO crops and countries growing them. It also summarizes various studies that have found health issues with GMOs, such as fertility problems in mice fed GM corn and high mortality in hamsters fed GM soy. The document discusses concerns from Islamic scholars about GMOs containing genes from pigs. It notes that surveys found women to be more cautious about GMOs than men. The document outlines Malaysia's regulations on GMO labeling and concludes that increasing consumer knowledge about GMO benefits could help lower risk perceptions.

This document summarizes potential health risks of genetically modified organisms (GMOs). It discusses how GMOs may cause cancer, damage the immune system, and cause infertility. Specifically, it claims that GMOs can lead to breast cancer, kidney and liver failure, and lung cancer. It also suggests that GMOs may increase allergies, harm tissues, and contaminate blood. Further, the document asserts that GMOs are linked to issues like sterility, infant mortality, and miscarriage.

This document lists 100 scientific reasons to not eat meat. Key points include: meat contains compounds like Neu5Gc that are linked to cancer and heart disease; animal products are high in compounds like AGEs and arachidonic acid that promote inflammation, aging, and brain/mental health issues; bacteria and endotoxins present in meat can cause systemic inflammation and increase cancer and disease risk; and numerous studies have linked meat consumption to increased mortality, cancer, allergies and other diseases.
Genetically modified crops have been widely adopted since 1996, with 10% of world cropland planted with GM crops in 2010. GM crops are engineered to have new traits like pest or herbicide resistance. While GM crops may increase yields and reduce pesticide use, there are also concerns about potential health effects of GMOs including allergens, toxicity, antibiotic resistance in bacteria, and impacts on non-target organisms. The long-term environmental and health impacts of GMOs remain unclear and are an ongoing source of debate.
This document discusses the importance of bacterial culture methods compared to genomic analysis in food microbiology. It makes three key points:
1) Cultural methods are necessary for the detection and enumeration of bacteria in foods, as current genomic methods cannot achieve the high sensitivity required to detect potential pathogens at low levels. Cultural enrichment is required to amplify bacteria to detectable concentrations.
2) Only cultural methods can determine bacterial viability. Genomic analysis cannot distinguish between viable and non-viable cells as it only detects the presence of biomolecules.
3) While genomic analysis excels at bacterial identification and subtyping, it is less reliable for predicting phenotypic characteristics. Cultural methods are still needed to validate phenotype predictions from genomic data.

Where’s the Beef?: Ethics and the Beef Industry
Americans love their beef. Despite the high rate of its consumption, in recent years
people in the United States have grown increasingly concerned about where their food comes
from, how it is produced, and what environmental and health impacts result from its production.
These concerns can be distilled into two ethical questions: is the treatment of cattle humane and
is there a negative environmental impact of beef production? For many, the current methods of
industrial beef production and consumption do not meet personal ethical or environmental
standards. Therefore, for ethical and environmental reasons, people should limit their beef
consumption.
The first ethical question to consider is the humane treatment of domesticated cattle. It
has been demonstrated in multiple scientific studies that animals feel physical pain as well as
emotional states such as fear (Grandin & Smith, 2004, para. 2). In Concentrated Animal Feeding
Operations (CAFOs), better known as “factory farms” due to their industrialized attitude toward
cattle production, cattle are often confined to unnaturally small areas; fed a fattening, grain-based
diet; and given a constant stream of antibiotics to help combat disease and infection. In his essay,
“An Animal’s Place,” Michael Pollan (2002) states that beef cattle often live “standing ankle
Comment [SL1]: Hi Logan! This is a great title.
Comment [SL2]: It will help strengthen your opening
sentence to include some sort of facts or statistics about
beef consumption in America.
Comment [SL3]: Throughout your essay, you talk about
more than just limiting the consumption of beef. How could
you strengthen your Thesis Statement to connect all of
those points?

deep in their own waste eating a diet that makes them sick” (para. 40). Pollan describes
Americans’ discomfort with this aspect of meat production and notes that they are removed from
and uncomfortable with the physical and psychological aspects of killing animals for food. He
simplifies the actions chosen by many Americans: “we either look away—or stop eating
animals” (para. 32). This decision to look away has enabled companies to treat and slaughter
their animals in ways that cause true suffering for the animals. If Americans want to continue to
eat beef, alternative, ethical methods of cattle production must be considered.
The emphasis on a grain-based diet, and therefore a reliance on mono-cropping, also
contributes to the inefficient use of available land. The vast majority of grain production (75-
90% depending on whether corn or soy) goes to feeding animals rather than humans, and cattle
alone .

Dr. John Grove - Fifty Years Of No-till Research In KentuckyJohn Blue
Long-term no-till research can provide valuable insights into crop production over many seasons. This research found that no-till soils generally had higher yields than tilled soils over time. No-till soils had cooler temperatures, held more water after rain, and had different soil biological properties and nutrient stratification compared to tilled soils. The impacts of no-till and fertilizer nitrogen on soil organic carbon and crop yields changed over the 50 years of the study.

This document summarizes the results of soil health tests conducted on five fields with different tillage and cover cropping histories. Biological, chemical, and physical soil health indicators such as microbial biomass, soil organic matter, active carbon, and bulk density showed improved soil health in fields that were no-tilled or had cover crops for longer durations compared to conventionally tilled fields or fields with shorter cover cropping histories. Long-term no-till and cover cropping practices increased soil organic matter, microbial activity, and nutrient availability and decreased bulk density compared to conventional tillage systems.

PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s PerspectiveGolden Helix
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.
This presentation gives information on the pharmacology of Prostaglandins, Thromboxanes and Leukotrienes i.e. Eicosanoids. Eicosanoids are signaling molecules derived from polyunsaturated fatty acids like arachidonic acid. They are involved in complex control over inflammation, immunity, and the central nervous system. Eicosanoids are synthesized through the enzymatic oxidation of fatty acids by cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase enzymes. They have short half-lives and act locally through autocrine and paracrine signaling.

After getting it read you will definitely understand the topic.
Gene therapy can be broadly defined as the transfer of genetic material to cure a disease or at least to improve the clinical status of a patient.
One of the basic concepts of gene therapy is to transform viruses into genetic shuttles, which will deliver the gene of interest into the target cells.
Safe methods have been devised to do this, using several viral and non-viral vectors.
In the future, this technique may allow doctors to treat a disorder by inserting a gene into a patient's cells instead of using drugs or surgery.
The biggest hurdle faced by medical research in gene therapy is the availability of effective gene-carrying vectors that meet all of the following criteria:
Protection of transgene or genetic cargo from degradative action of systemic and endonucleases,
Delivery of genetic material to the target site, i.e., either cell cytoplasm or nucleus,
Low potential of triggering unwanted immune responses or genotoxicity,
Economical and feasible availability for patients .
Viruses are naturally evolved vehicles that efficiently transfer their genes into host cells.
Choice of viral vector is dependent on gene transfer efficiency, capacity to carry foreign genes, toxicity, stability, immune responses towards viral antigens and potential viral recombination.
There are a wide variety of vectors used to deliver DNA or oligo nucleotides into mammalian cells, either in vitro or in vivo.
The most common vector system based on retroviruses, adenoviruses, herpes simplex viruses, adeno associated viruses.

Editor's Notes
Introduction
Today there are nearly 1 billion hungry people around the globe.
In 50 years, our growing global population will require an estimated 100% more food than we produce today.
Unfortunately, we won’t have 100% more land available. Based on U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) projections, 13% more land in developing countries will be converted to agricultural use over the next 30 years. On a global basis, this is a net increase in available cropland of only 1%—from the 39% of land area used in 2008 to a total of 40%.
The U.N. FAO also reports that this added farmland will help produce only 20% of the additional food our planet will need in 2050, and 10% will come from increased cropping intensity.
Accordingly, the FAO concludes that 70% of the world’s additional food needs can be produced only with new and existing agricultural technologies.
