This study demonstrates that bioactive peptides derived from sea bream and sea bass aquaculture side-streams effectively protect human skin cells from oxidative stress and improve skin matrix organization, validating their potential as sustainable ingredients for the circular blue economy in cosmetic applications.
This study demonstrates that trait-specific, GWAS-informed marker preselection significantly enhances genomic prediction accuracy for growth traits in slash pine, offering a projected 1.7- to 2.0-fold annualized breeding advantage over conventional methods, though its benefits are limited for wood quality and oleoresin traits.
This study demonstrates that polyethylene microplastics in soil negatively impact coriander seed germination and shoot emergence while altering root morphology by increasing root number and depth but decreasing root network volume and length, alongside a concentration-dependent rise in photosynthetic pigment levels.
This study evaluated ten forage barley genotypes across ten environments in Yunnan, China, identifying genotypes G6 and G1 as the most promising candidates for expanded testing due to their superior dry matter yield and interaction stability.
This study reveals that bacteria and fungi in the maize rhizosphere follow kingdom-specific assembly rules, identifies Proteobacteria and Ascomycota as essential network backbones, and employs a Bayesian structural equation framework to map interpretable pathways linking microbial features to grain yield, thereby providing a foundation for microbiome-assisted maize breeding.
This study demonstrates that an integrated nano–bio–phytochemical treatment combining low-dimensional ZnO nanofluid and *Croton bonplandianum* extract effectively enriches pollutant-degrading microbes to remediate municipal wastewater while simultaneously boosting alkaline hydrogen production by 112% compared to untreated water.
This study demonstrates that inoculating *Ocimum americanum* L. with *Bacillus subtilis* MTCC 8141 and *Trichoderma harzianum* MTCC 936, either individually or as a consortium, significantly enhances essential oil yield and termiticidal efficacy against *Odontotermes parvidens* during the reproductive phase, with the mixed treatment producing oils rich in camphor that achieve 100% mortality and complete repellency at 400 ppm.
This study demonstrates that aqueous leaf and bark extracts of *Myrica esculenta* exhibit significant, concentration-dependent allelopathic inhibition on the germination and growth of five traditional Himalayan crops, with leaf extracts proving more phytotoxic than bark extracts and *Eleusine coracana* showing the highest susceptibility, thereby providing critical insights for optimizing tree–crop compatibility in sustainable agroforestry systems.
This study demonstrates that machine learning models, particularly XGBoost and Ridge Regression, can effectively predict maize grain yield and water use efficiency under deficit irrigation in semi-arid Ethiopia, identifying a 70% ETc treatment as an optimal strategy that balances high productivity with significant water savings.
This study demonstrates that UV-B irradiation serves as an effective pest control strategy by exploiting the evolutionary loss of DNA repair pathways in obligate bacterial endosymbionts, thereby disrupting symbiosis and significantly reducing the survival and reproductive fitness of key agricultural insect pests.
