Soil-Plant Phosphorus Dynamics and Microbial Activity as Influenced by Integrated Phosphorus Management in Wheat: Correlations with Grain and Biological Yields

This study demonstrates that integrating cattle manure with phosphate-solubilizing bacteria significantly enhances soil health and phosphorus use efficiency in alkaline calcareous soils, thereby maximizing wheat grain and biological yields through improved microbial activity and available phosphorus levels.

Valorization of Olive Leaf Biomass through Fermentation: Metabolite Production and Bioactive Characterization

This study demonstrates that partially substituting green tea with olive leaf biomass (50%) in SCOBY fermentation effectively preserves key physicochemical properties and yields a rich profile of bioactive phenolic compounds, offering a sustainable strategy for valorizing agricultural by-products into functional products.

Mechanism study of jasmonic acid and salicylic acid enhances the cabbage black rot resistance by improving oxidative clearance capacity and synthesis of secondary metabolites

This study demonstrates that exogenous salicylic acid (SA) and jasmonic acid (JA) individually enhance cabbage resistance to black rot by regulating endogenous hormones, improving oxidative clearance, and promoting secondary metabolite synthesis, with SA proving more effective than JA and their combined application showing no synergistic benefit.

Evaluation of Sustainability of Cattle Farming Through Social, Economic, Ecological, and Technological Approaches In Sinjai Regency, South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia

This study evaluates the moderate sustainability of smallholder cattle farming in Sinjai Regency, Indonesia, by applying a Social–Ecological–Technological Systems framework to reveal that while structural capacity exists, the system's resilience is constrained by weak social capital, low economic returns, and insufficient cross-dimensional integration.

Biological strategies to mitigate the effect of water deficit on morphophysiology of soybean

This study demonstrates that inoculating soybeans with *Bacillus subtilis* and the microalga *Parachlorella* sp. mitigates the adverse effects of water deficit by enhancing photosynthetic efficiency, stabilizing photosystem II, and promoting root biomass accumulation.

Trait-Based Specific Protection Goals for Wild Pollinators: A Staged Modelling Framework for Pesticide Risk Assessment

This paper proposes a pragmatic, staged modelling framework that utilizes trait-based species selection and demographic toxicity assessment to establish defined, quantitative Specific Protection Goals for wild pollinators, thereby resolving current regulatory impasses in pesticide risk assessment while providing a roadmap for future spatial and agent-based refinements.
