This study conducted in Iran demonstrates that while increasing phosphorus and potassium levels in nutrient solutions boosts broccoli yield in sand and silty-sand media, a specialized Brassica-SANRU solution without extra additives is sufficient for optimal growth and yield in a coco-peat and perlite substrate.
This study demonstrates that chronic ammonia stress induces gill hyperplasia in largemouth bass by activating the Apelin/APJ signaling pathway, which upregulates cell cycle genes and promotes cell proliferation, suggesting this pathway as a potential molecular target for breeding ammonia-tolerant strains.
In a drip-irrigated maize field experiment, a nitrogen application rate of 300 kg N ha⁻¹ maximized grain yield and agronomic nitrogen-use efficiency by fostering favorable rhizosphere conditions, including enhanced soil enzyme activities, specific functional gene abundances, and strong gene-enzyme coupling, whereas higher nitrogen rates led to yield declines and reduced biochemical matching.
In an archaeal-dominated grassland soil, the nitrification inhibitor DMPP preferentially suppresses ammonia-oxidising bacteria (AOB) rather than archaea (AOA), leading to a significant reduction in nitric oxide emissions and demonstrating that low-abundance AOB contribute disproportionately to NO production.
This study demonstrates that in organic greenhouse systems, the rhizosphere microbiome and root nitrogen assimilation gene expression exhibit significant spatial heterogeneity across sampling depths, particularly in soilless systems, highlighting the need to account for vertical resource gradients to better understand and manage root-soil-microbiome interactions.
This study demonstrates that optimizing passive modified atmosphere packaging for ready-to-eat immature faba bean seeds by using a specific laser micro-perforated film (Film E) effectively reduces oxidative stress and respiration, thereby preserving physical, nutritional, and sensory quality for up to nine days at 5°C.
Dietary supplementation with 1000–1500 mg/kg of Glycyrrhiza polysaccharides (GCP) optimally enhances growth performance, nutrient utilization, antioxidant capacity via the Nrf2-Keap1 pathway, and immune response while mitigating inflammation in largemouth bass.
This study characterizes the nutritional profile of the male freshwater crab *Maydelliathelphusa harpax* from Assam, India, revealing high protein and moisture content, a rich mineral and vitamin composition, and the absence of detectable heavy metals, thereby establishing its potential as a safe and nutritious food source.
This study presents an integrated confocal microscopy workflow that repurposes leaf autofluorescence as an internal spatial reference to overcome background interference, enabling the quantitative mapping of nanocarrier distribution and penetration depth in plant leaves through the complementary parameters of accumulated fluorescence and axial displacement.
This paper introduces TransFarm, a localized, farm-scale digital tool developed and piloted in Karnataka, India, that enables farmers and facilitators to evaluate trade-offs between income, water use, and carbon stock across various agroecological transition scenarios, while highlighting the need for future independent validation beyond its current study context.
