The Next Generation Agriculture: Botanical extracts and essential oils as the new antimicrobials against microbial contaminants and diseases of Cannabis

The majority of license producers (LP) Cannabis producers have witnessed evidence of powdery mildew and grey mold and bud rot diseases. Plant yields and ultimate profitability can be severely undermined by these diseases. Medicinal plants produce essential oils in the form of secondary metabolites. The essential oils have the potential to be used as antibacterial, […]

Biparental haploid cells to generate genomically designed offspring

In natural selection, differential fitness relies on the chromosomal shuffling during meiosis that enables the production of haploid gametes that are genetically different. However, meiotic-induced genetic variability can be an economic burden to the animal breeding industry since offspring often do not inherit the most desirable genes from their parents. Although genomic markers are currently […]

Quality and degradation assessments of polymer-lined thrust bearings by indentation and tribological testing

Current needs for renewable and emission-free technologies imposes hydroelectric power plants to generate power in a predictable and reliable fashion. Replacing metallic to polymeric coatings in thrust bearings allows hydroelectric turbines to operate at a wider range of operation parameters. However, the sensibility of polymeric materials to the manufacturing method imposes important uncertainties on the […]

The EU in contemporary global environmental governance: a complementary outside-in and inside-out approach

The research conducted in Montreal focuses on studying the role of the European Union (EU) in the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) through an innovative outside-in mapping. Three dimensions of the EU’s role are examined: its environmental ambition, leadership and diplomatic activity. The project is innovative because of a twofold reason. First, counterbalancing the literature’s […]

Investigation of the effects of whole hemp seed dietary supplementation on the microbiome-endocannabinoidome axis and its implications in diet induced obesity

Nowadays, the balance of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids (FAs) has shifted in favour of the latter and fiber consumption has decreased, both of which are associated with poor cardiometabolic health. Omega 3 FAs and fiber may impart their health benefits by modulating the endocannabinoid system (ECS) and the gut microbiome, both of which are […]

Quête d’identité juive par les archives : quand il ne reste que la généalogie. Un cas concret de recherche matérielle et virtuelle

La généalogie procède d’une recherche de parenté, de filiation qui nous rattache à un contexte de société. Les archives, autrefois secrètes et dévolues aux experts (historiens et chercheurs), connaissent un regain d’intérêt informationnel mais aussi émotionnel tant au niveau concret qu’un niveau virtuel. La généalogie juive est en marge du mouvement car elle témoigne souvent […]

Projet Lab-Aventure : Observation des habiletés motrices fondamentales en situation de jeu en fonction de l’environnement extérieur et des matériaux de jeu chez des enfants de 8 – 9 ans

Les habiletés motrices fondamentales (HMF), par exemple : lancer, attraper, courir, sauter, sont le fondement d’un mode de vie actif. Elles se développement au cours de l’enfance via la pratique d’activité physique donc principalement à travers les périodes de jeu. Cependant, seulement un mince pourcentage des enfants répondre aux recommandations nationales du temps accordé à […]
