This study utilized a genome-wide association study on 202 soybean accessions to identify three significant SNPs on chromosome 18 associated with quantitative resistance to *Rotylenchulus reniformis*, thereby providing candidate genes and molecular markers to facilitate the breeding of resistant soybean varieties.
This study demonstrates that integrating root-zone hydration techniques, such as scheduled supplemental watering, with soil moisture conservation methods like mulching and water bagging significantly enhances the survival, growth, and physiological resilience of young tea plants during severe winter droughts in Bangladesh.
This paper presents the first-of-its-kind global dataset of agricultural pesticide use from 2016–2020, which integrates diverse data sources and machine learning to map 2.9 million tonnes of applications across 131 crops and 167 countries, providing the high-resolution insights necessary to reduce environmental and health impacts and guide sustainable policy.
This qualitative study of 17 Malaysian farmers utilizes snowball sampling to demonstrate how Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) serve as a strategic catalyst for enhancing sustainable, eco-friendly, and equitable agricultural production to address challenges like climate change and food insecurity.
This study demonstrates that in the bivoltine silkworm race SK7, a specific 20-hour light and 4-hour dark photoperiod during egg incubation induces 100% non-diapause development and high hatching rates, whereas other light–dark cycles, including continuous darkness and the standard control, result in 100% diapause.
This study proposes a cost-effective, scalable bioextraction method that utilizes *Saccharomyces cerevisiae* fermentation and gelatin precipitation to co-produce pomegranate peel polyphenols alongside red wine, eliminating the need for expensive equipment, drying, and chromatography while offering a viable alternative to traditional industrial purification techniques.
This study demonstrates that herbal teas produced from *Solanum aethiopicum* and *Lasianthera africana* leaves possess significant nutritional and phytochemical benefits comparable to commercial tea, suggesting their potential as viable, health-promoting alternatives despite the need for improved processing hygiene and sensory optimization.
This study demonstrates that multiobjective optimization of chlorine fertilization enhances both yield and chemical quality in cigar tobacco, identifying specific optimal application rates of 47.43 kg/hm² for CX-26 and 44.50 kg/hm² for CX-14 while highlighting the detrimental effects of excessive chlorine on leaf quality.
This study demonstrates that supplementing sows with *Bacillus coagulans* C56 during lactation, rather than late gestation, significantly improves reproductive performance and offspring health by remodeling the maternal gut microbiota, enhancing antioxidant capacity, and facilitating the vertical transmission of beneficial bacteria to piglets.
This study demonstrates that Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models outperform ARIMA models in short-term forecasting of *Helicoverpa armigera* adult populations by more effectively capturing nonlinear dynamics and peak incidences using a decade of pheromone trap and weather data, thereby offering a superior early warning system for integrated pest management.
