This study evaluated alternative spray mixtures for whitefly control on two tomato genotypes and found that while several mixtures repelled adults, the tobacco-alcohol and garlic-malagueta pepper-coconut soap formulations were most effective at controlling the pest across its entire life cycle.
This study introduces a physics-informed Fourier thermography transformer (PFT-ViT) that accurately detects and quantifies concealed Braeburn browning disorder in intact apples by analyzing transient thermal responses and peel appearance, achieving high accuracy and robustness for non-destructive quality screening in supply chains.
This study demonstrates that the live attenuated ASFV-G-ΔI177L vaccine, administered either orally or intramuscularly, provides pigs with protection against a highly virulent ASFV challenge for at least six months, although protective immunity may begin to wane around this time.
This study found that neither the duration of melatonin exposure nor the estrous cycle phase at the initiation of synchronization significantly improved reproductive performance in Awassi ewes during the breeding season.
This study demonstrates that substituting wheat flour with up to 15% *Zonocerus variegatus* (grasshopper) powder significantly enhances the protein, fiber, mineral, and vitamin content of biscuits while maintaining acceptable sensory qualities, highlighting its potential as a sustainable, nutrient-dense food ingredient.
This study demonstrates that while delayed sowing significantly reduces wheat yield and growth in Pakistan, seed priming with zinc or proline and heat treatment can effectively mitigate these losses, whereas cold treatment proved unreliable under the tested conditions.
This study characterizes fifteen *Triticum dicoccum* genotypes under controlled post-anthesis heat stress, identifying specific accessions (notably G10 and a group of moderately tolerant lines) with superior physio-biochemical traits like antioxidant capacity and membrane stability, thereby validating them as promising genetic resources for improving heat tolerance in modern wheat breeding.
Through a consensus-based Delphi study involving 46 European researchers, this paper establishes that agroforestry practices generally enhance climate resilience compared to conventional farming by leveraging tree protection and biodiversity, though significant knowledge gaps persist regarding their performance relative to tree-only systems, pest dynamics, and financial viability.
Based on survey data from 1,475 Chinese fruit and vegetable growers, this study demonstrates that agricultural outsourcing services serve as an effective extension channel for Integrated Pest Management adoption by embedding technical knowledge into production tasks, with their impact further amplified by village collective action, machinery subsidies, and social influence.
This study demonstrates that maize cob ash, characterized by its alkaline nature, nutrient-rich composition, and distinct morphological properties, serves as a sustainable dual-purpose agent for soil amendment and antimicrobial applications.
