DOI: 10.1007/s00204-020-02929-6
Abstract: Exposure to environmental chemicals during in utero and early postnatal development can cause a wide range of neurological defects. Since current guidelines for identifying developmental neurotoxic chemicals depend on the use of large numbers of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10457-020-00552-z
Abstract: By using two thinning intensity regimes on a dense 16-year-old black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) stand, two silvopastures were created: a medium density silvopasture (MDS) with 60% mean crown cover and a low density silvopasture… read more here.
