This study utilizes panel econometrics and machine learning on 30 years of district-level data to demonstrate that wheat in Nepal is significantly more sensitive to temperature increases and drought stress than maize, with a 1°C rise reducing wheat yields by 8.7% compared to 4.2% for maize.
This study demonstrates that ethanol, methanol, chloroform, and hexane extracts of *Hyptis suaveolens*, *Ocimum sanctum*, and *Laurus nobilis* exhibit significant insecticidal activity against the American cockroach (*Periplaneta americana*), with a combined formulation proving most effective and the methanolic extract of *H. suaveolens* showing the highest potency among individual treatments.
This study demonstrates that melatonin alleviates cadmium toxicity in Tartary buckwheat by reducing cadmium uptake and oxidative damage while upregulating redox-related genes and phenylpropanoid biosynthesis pathways.
This study demonstrates that the biopesticide *Trichoderma koningiopsis* Th003, applied at doses of 1.0 and 1.5 g L⁻¹, effectively reduces anthracnose severity in Hass avocado orchards in Colombia without causing phytotoxicity, supporting its integration into crop management strategies.
This study demonstrates that fishbone biochar serves as an effective circular phosphorus source for alkaline dryland soils, significantly increasing available phosphorus across Vertisol, Entisol, and Aridisol conditions, though its application requires soil-specific rate optimization to manage salinity, sodicity, and strong phosphorus retention.
This study identifies a recurring pattern of rear udder underdevelopment in Holstein and Jersey cattle across diverse geographical regions and breeds, providing preliminary evidence of a potential hereditary predisposition that warrants further genomic and pedigree-based investigation.
This study demonstrates that combining 40 µM L⁻¹ arachidonic acid elicitation with pulsed LED lighting synergistically enhances both the biomass growth and steviol glycoside production of *Stevia rebaudiana* in vertical hydroponic systems, offering a sustainable strategy for optimizing medicinal crop quality.
This study demonstrates that aqueous leaf extracts of *Vernonia amygdalina* and *Chromolaena odorata* exert concentration-dependent allelopathic effects on rice germination, where high concentrations significantly inhibit radicle and plumule growth while lower concentrations of *V. amygdalina* may promote it.
This study demonstrates that combining Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) with VIP feature selection and Random Forest algorithms enables 100% accurate classification of tea varieties and batches, as well as precise quantitative prediction of fermentation quality indicators in Pu-erh tea.
