This study identifies five OsDVL genes in rice, characterizes their stress-responsive expression patterns and haplotype diversity across 3,010 accessions, and reveals that specific haplotypes are significantly associated with yield-related traits, suggesting their potential as targets for marker-assisted breeding to enhance stress tolerance and productivity.
A farmer-participatory trial in Eastern Uttar Pradesh demonstrated that using Smart Seeder technology for wheat sowing with retained rice residue significantly outperforms traditional residue burning and broadcasting by enhancing wheat yield attributes, increasing farm profitability, and promoting sustainable agricultural practices aligned with key Sustainable Development Goals.
This study evaluates Hindi-language YouTube videos on dairy mastitis in India and finds that while independent creators dominate viewership, veterinary professionals produce significantly higher-quality content, revealing a critical gap between algorithmic popularity and clinical accuracy that underscores the need to enhance digital communication capacity among field veterinarians.
Based on primary data from 200 dairy farmers in Golaghat, Assam, this study reveals that while direct sales dominate milk marketing channels and yield the highest producer share, the sector is constrained by weak infrastructure and perishability, necessitating strengthened cooperative governance and cold-chain facilities to improve farmer welfare.
This study demonstrates that soil-applied potassium phosphite effectively suppresses tomato bacterial wilt by directly inhibiting *Ralstonia* and reshaping the rhizosphere microbiome toward beneficial taxa, albeit at the cost of reduced plant biomass.
This study conducted in El-Khattara, Egypt, during 2023–2024 characterized the seasonal dynamics of the cowpea aphid *Aphis craccivora* and identified a diverse community of 18 predatory species and 6 parasitoid species, highlighting their potential as key components for integrated biological control despite low parasitism rates.
This study characterizes the unique phenolic and alkaloid profile of Tibetan Berberis honey, demonstrating its superior total phenolic content, antioxidant capacity, and selective antibacterial activity against specific pathogens compared to commercial Manuka honey, thereby highlighting its potential as a functional food.
This study demonstrates that no-till management significantly enhances soil structural integrity and water retention capacity compared to conventional tillage by increasing soil organic matter, porosity, and water-holding capacity while reducing bulk density.
This study demonstrates that co-creating adaptation-stories with dairy stakeholders in North Karelia, Finland, effectively enhances climate change communication by transforming abstract future risks into locally meaningful, emotionally engaging narratives that stimulate dialogue and reflection on long-term adaptation pathways.
This study demonstrates that chitinase produced by the native isolate of *Beauveria bassiana* is a critical virulence factor against the rice earhead bug *Leptocorisa oratorius*, exhibiting stage-dependent mortality and ovicidal activity while achieving optimal enzyme production under specific cultural conditions and partial purification yielding a 60 kDa protein.
