This systematic review demonstrates that moderate dietary supplementation with brown or red seaweed enhances gut microbiota diversity, immune function, and antioxidant capacity in sheep, leading to improved production performance, superior meat and milk quality, and potential disease prevention benefits.
This study utilizes a probabilistic Cost of Diet (P-CoD) model to estimate that adhering to Saudi Arabia's national dietary guidelines costs approximately 20–25 Saudi Riyals daily (600–750 Riyals monthly), providing a framework to assess the affordability of recommended diets across varying energy needs and economic conditions.
This study demonstrates that a pH-sensitive anthocyanin-based colorimetric indicator serves as an effective, real-time monitoring tool for fish freshness by accurately correlating visible color changes with volatile amine production (specifically TMA and NH₃) and microbial growth, as validated by GC-MS analysis and gas detection tubes.
This study characterizes the phytochemical profile of *Hermannia geniculata* leaf extracts, finding that polar solvents yield the highest phenolic content, but notes that the crude extracts exhibit only weak 5-lipoxygenase inhibitory activity, suggesting a need for further fractionation to fully evaluate their anti-inflammatory potential.
This study establishes an integrated management strategy for soybean root disease caused by *Fusarium ipomoeae* by identifying *Pseudomonas brassicacearum* and the fungicide pydiflumetofen as highly effective control agents when used in combination, alongside developing a species-specific qPCR assay for sensitive pathogen detection.
This study demonstrates that the indigenous fungal antagonist *Trichoderma harzianum* effectively suppresses *Fusarium* wilt and promotes growth in *Corchorus olitorius* through significant inhibition of the pathogen in vitro and reduced disease severity in screenhouse trials, outperforming *Aspergillus niger* and *Aspergillus flavus*.
Using panel data from 287 Chinese cities (2008–2023), this study demonstrates that agricultural mechanization significantly promotes green development primarily through improved factor utilization and insurance-enhanced preservation, though its impact varies significantly across policy stages and disaster risk levels.
This study reveals that while improved cowpea varieties in Southwest Nigeria possess superior nutritional profiles with higher micronutrients and lower antinutrients compared to locally preferred landraces, their adoption is currently hindered by a lack of consumer awareness and preference for the taste and affordability of traditional varieties.
This study demonstrates that seagrass detritus is the most effective diet for promoting the growth of captive *Pinna nobilis* juveniles, thereby confirming a key ecological trophic link and providing essential dietary guidelines for the species' ex-situ conservation.
This study demonstrates that maize performance in temperate agroforestry systems is not solely determined by light limitation but is significantly influenced by the specific system configuration and spatial arrangement, revealing that optimal crop yields can occur at intermediate distances from trees due to complex interactions between radiation and microclimate.
