Synergistic and Independent Intestinal Effects of Curcumin, Green Tea, Garlic Extracts, and Ciprofloxacin in Broilers Experimentally Infected with Escherichia coli O78

This study demonstrates that combining curcumin, green tea, and garlic extracts with a reduced dose of ciprofloxacin provides superior protection against *E. coli* O78-induced colibacillosis in broilers compared to monotherapies, effectively eliminating mortality and bacterial loads while offering a promising strategy for antibiotic reduction.

Mechanism by which cinnamic acid regulates the fungal community structure in the rhizosphere soil and exacerbates soil-borne diseases in Lanzhou lily under consecutive replant conditions: a case study of Lanzhou lily wilt disease

This study demonstrates that cinnamic acid exacerbates Lanzhou lily wilt under consecutive replant conditions by promoting pathogen proliferation and altering soil properties, which indirectly reshapes the rhizosphere fungal community to favor pathogenic genera over beneficial ones.

Root Architectural Responses Mediate Productivity under Balanced Nitrogen and Magnesium Nutrition in Greenhouse-Grown Asparagus

This study demonstrates that balanced nitrogen and magnesium nutrition enhances greenhouse asparagus productivity by coordinating root system development with physiological performance, shifting the driver of yield from shoot-dependent traits in the first harvest to root-mediated architecture in the second.

Temperature and relative humidity influence Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) infestation and larval parasitoid activity in the tomato agroecosystems of the Niayes area, Senegal

This study conducted in Senegal's Niayes area reveals that warmer, drier conditions favor *Helicoverpa armigera* infestation in tomatoes while promoting high parasitism rates by natural enemies like *Cotesia vestalis*, underscoring the critical role of climate-driven interactions in integrated pest management.
