    The well-being of farmed and companion animals is increasingly recognised as integral to sustainable agroecosystems, companionship, and the One Health approach, which emphasises the interconnected health of people, animals, and the environment. The ELIXIR Domestic Animals Genome and Phenome (DAGP) Community supports genome-to-phenome analyses for farmed and companion animal species. Its aim is to coordinate, discuss, and explore the potential of data technology solutions to address key issues in animal welfare, behaviour, health, infectious diseases, metabolism, nutritional efficiency, and the preservation of genetic diversity and the environment. Through consolidating efforts to develop data standards, coordination, workflows, and visualisation, it will enhance the science underpinning rapidly growing fields in domestic animal genomics, including genome-enabled breeding, population genomics, pangenome analysis, functional genomics, genome editing, paleogenomics, phenotyping, and bio-banking. These standards will adhere to the FAIR data principles and leverage established ontologies to promote best practices in data coordination and archiving. This white paper, prepared by the ELIXIR DAGP Focus Group, summarises the current data infrastructure, resources, and tools available for domestic animal genomics and phenomics, and presents community-led plans and priorities to be implemented to meet the requirements of ELIXIR services and the animal science community. We describe how ELIXIR services can be applied in the domestic animal genomics and phenomics fields, and how we can connect projects and infrastructures that are active in the animal sciences domain. We also discuss three key priority areas: i) expanding the FAANG Data Portal for phenotype data with ELIXIR Data Platforms; ii) supporting submissions of new data types across ELIXIR Core Data Resources , including proprietary data from industry partners; and iii) strengthening connections to existing ELIXIR Communities and international consortia. This article provides a set of priorities for a Domestic Animals Genome and Phenome Community in ELIXIR and outlines the next steps to engage across stakeholders and to consolidate data for domestic animal science in Europe.
  • Tree Harvest Decisions Modulate the Climate Impact of Rewetting in a Low‐Productive Peatland Forest in Boreal Sweden

    Over the past century, extensive areas of northern peatlands have been drained for forestry. Today, concerns about their role as significant sources of greenhouse gases (GHG) have sparked growing interest in peatland rewetting as a climate mitigating strategy. However, empirical evidence for rewetting effects on ecosystem carbon (C) and GHG balances is still limited, particularly for minerogenic boreal peatland forests. Rewetting of peatland forests also involves decisions about tree harvest, which can have important but understudied consequences for the C cycle. In this study, we quantified tree growth and estimated carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) fluxes in both peatland areas and ditches over 2 years before (2019–2020) and after (2021–2022) rewetting a low-productive, minerogenic peatland forest in boreal Sweden. We also assessed effects of tree removal during rewetting by comparing harvest and non-harvest areas. Our results suggest that the peatland forest was, on average, C-neutral at the ecosystem-scale during the drained years. After rewetting, the harvested area became a C source (79 g C m−2 year−1), while the treed area acted as a small C sink (−24 g C m−2 year−1), with the difference due to diverging responses in net CO2 exchange. Furthermore, CH4 emissions doubled after rewetting, resulting in a two- to threefold increase in total GHG emissions (expressed in CO2 equivalents) over both 20- and 100-year timeframes. While ditches functioned as significant CO2 sinks and moderate CH4 sources during the drained years, they became CO2-neutral and CH4 emission hotspots after being infilled. Altogether, our findings suggest that rewetting low-productive boreal peatland forests may have a negative short-term climate impact. However, rewetting without tree harvest considerably meliorates ecosystem C and GHG balances. Overall, our study highlights the importance of tree harvesting decisions and the need for a deeper understanding of rewetting as a climate mitigation strategy.

  • Reactive Extrusion of Reeds (Phragmites australis) and production of binder-less foam insulator

    Materials today sustainability (Elsevier, 2026)
    The construction and packaging industries are heavily dependent on petroleum-derived products such as polyurethane (PU) and polystyrene foams, as well as energy-intensive mineral and rock wool. Their low thermal conductivity, moisture resistance, long-term durability, low cost, and wide availability have made these materials difficult to substitute. However, in recent years, there has been growing demand for sustainable, renewable, and environmentally friendly alternatives to petroleum-derived products, driving considerable research and development in this area. Several natural materials, including wood fiber, hemp fiber, and rice and wheat straw fibrous panels, have been utilized for thermal insulation applications in the construction sector. These materials offer notable advantages such as low thermal conductivity, high porosity, and tuneable mechanical properties, alongside inherent biodegradability and a reduced carbon footprint. Nevertheless, significant challenges remain, particularly with respect to moisture resistance, thermal stability, and continued reliance on fossil-derived binders in their production. In the present work, binderless foams based on common reed (Phragmites australis) were produced using hydrothermally treated and reactive extrusion-processed reed fibers. The resulting foams demonstrated thermal conductivity comparable to that of PU and polystyrene foams, along with adjustable density. Moreover, the reed foams exhibited excellent dimensional stability under both water immersion and high humidity conditions. This work also provides a comprehensive characterization of the chemical composition of common reed before and after various treatments, as well as the process know-how required for binderless foam production.
