Two plant production-based strategies – biofortification and dietary diversification – have been advocated to overcome micronutrient deficiencies, which are major contributors to morbidity and mortality worldwide. The respective benefits and effectiveness of these two strategies are the subject of controversy. Expanding the scope of this debate bey...
Background: Roots play an important role during plant growth and development, ensuring water and nutrient uptake. Understanding the mechanisms regulating their initiation and development opens doors towards root system architecture engineering. Results: Here, we investigated by RNA-seq analysis the changes in gene expression in the barley stem base...

En France, l'aide alimentaire est la principale option proposée aux personnes en situation de précarité qui rencontrent des difficultés pour accéder à la nourriture. L'essentiel de l'aide s'appuie sur le Fond Européen d'Aide alimentaire, mais surtout sur des dispositifs nationaux de déduction fiscale aux entreprises et particuliers, qui encouragent...
Objective: To explore communities' perspectives on the factors in the social food environment that influence dietary behaviours in African cities. Design: A qualitative study using participatory photography (Photovoice). Participants took and discussed photographs representing factors in the social food environment that influence their dietary beha...
Achieving a balanced and diverse diet remains a challenge for many people, contributing to an ongoing burden of micronutrient deficiencies, particularly in low-income settings. Fortification or dietary diversification are common food-based approaches. We conducted a scoping review to: 1) find evidence on whether combined food–based strategies are m...
Cet article étudie les attentes et les aspirations des Bamakois et Bamakoises (habitants de la capitale du Mali) concernant leur alimentation. Dans un contexte de transition alimentaire en milieu urbain, il s'intéresse à la façon dont les représentations de l'alimentation et à travers elles, les modèles alimentaires, se déploient entre attentes lié...
Researchers rarely reveal the details of the methodological choices on which their research is based. The theoretical and practical considerations that have guided them in these choices often remain implicit. In this book, the focus is on methods for studying food and 'eaters'. The use of the term 'eaters' is intended to distinguish them from the s...
