Agroforestry is the intentional integration of trees into agricultural landscapes. Advancing agroforestry has the potential to support just food system transition, but it must take direction from traditional approaches (culturally-embedded, millennia-old agroforestry practices in forest ecosystems) and agroecology (the movement, science, and practice for just and sustainable food and agricultural systems). An agroecological approach to agroforestry is essential to avoid agroforestry replicating the logics and harms of industrial agriculture and to encourage learning from traditional agroforestry practices, and likewise, traditional approaches to agroforestry can support a transformative agroecological transition through redesign of agroecosystems and shifting perspectives and ethics.

Potential Enhanced Stress Tolerance Of Outbreak-Associated Salmonella Enterica From Multiple U.S. Outbreaks, Ariel E. Martin
Graduate College Dissertations and Theses
Salmonella enterica is a widespread species of bacteria that consists of over 2,600 different serovars, with fewer than 100 serovars accounting for most human salmonellosis cases globally. Serovars are classified by their surface antigens and are commonly grouped into two groups – serovars that cause typhoid fever are known as typhoidal Salmonella enterica, and serovars that cause salmonellosis are non-typhoidal S. enterica. The CDC estimates that non-typhoidal S. enterica (NTS) causes 1.35 million illnesses annually in the United States, with 26,500 hospitalizations and 420 deaths. Of these illnesses, most are outbreak-associated and can be traced back to a common source.The …
