ALGAL RESEARCH-BIOMASS BIOFUELS AND BIOPRODUCTS, 35, 223–235.

By: Y. Liang *, M. Kaczmarek*, A. Kasprzak*, J. Tang *, M. Shah*, P. Jin *, A. Klepacz-Smolka *, J. Cheng n , S. Ledakowicz *, M. Daroch *

author keywords: Cyanobacteria; Phycocyanin; Thermophile; Thermostability; Phycobilisome; Natural pigment
TL;DR: Characterisation of three thermophilic strains of cyanobacteria belonging to Thermosynechococcaceae and their utilisation as a source of thermostable C-phycocyanin reveals interesting pattern of amino acid substitutions that are present in thermophobic proteins that could have significant impact on their significantly higher thermostability.

Resurgence of specialized shade coffee cultivation: Effects on pollination services and quality of coffee production

AGRICULTURE ECOSYSTEMS & ENVIRONMENT, 265, 567–575.

By: S. Prado n, J. Collazo n  & R. Irwin n

author keywords: Coffea arabica; Coffea canephora; Fruit set; Seed predation; Bean weight; Beverage quality
TL;DR: Investigation of the ways in which fruit set, seed predation, bean weight, proportion of peaberries, and beverage quality differ between sun and specialized shade plantations of Coffeea arabica and Coffea canephora finds that specialized shade benefits the proportion of C. arabicas fruit set without compromising bean weight or theportion ofPeaberries produced.
