CFD-DPM Analysis of Velocity and Pressure Distribution for Selected Agricultural Cereal Grains for Straight Pipe in Pneumatic Conveyor

This study utilizes CFD-DPM simulations to demonstrate that the pneumatic conveying performance of five cereal grains (teff, wheat, maize, sorghum, and barley) in a straight pipe varies significantly based on their specific particle size and shape characteristics rather than density, with teff exhibiting the highest resistance and sorghum the lowest.

Salt tolerance evaluation of seven evergreen Ilex germplasms and transcriptomic insights into photosynthetic inhibition in a sensitive species

This study evaluates the salt tolerance of seven *Ilex* germplasms through multi-physiological and transcriptomic analyses, identifying photosynthetic capacity as the primary indicator of salt injury and revealing that salt stress in sensitive species specifically disrupts carbon assimilation pathways rather than causing global gene suppression.

Silicon and Selenium nanoparticles synergistically alleviate arsenic toxicity and enhance chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla L.) yield and quality under drought stress

This study demonstrates that a pre-synthesized silicon-selenium nanocomposite (nSi@nSe) most effectively mitigates the combined effects of drought and arsenic stress in German chamomile by reducing oxidative damage and arsenic uptake while significantly enhancing yield and medicinal quality.

Diagnosis-Associated Antimicrobial Prescribing Patterns in a Resource- Limited Veterinary District Setting: Evidence from Mongar, Bhutan (2023– 2026)

This study of veterinary records in Mongar, Bhutan, reveals that antimicrobial prescribing is strongly linked to specific diagnoses and that the observed disparity in client counselling between WHO AWaRe tiers is primarily driven by the route of administration, with injectable prescriptions receiving significantly less documented guidance than oral ones.

Root architectural plasticity and rhizosphere phosphatase hotspots jointly enhance phosphorus acquisition in Camellia oleifera on amendment-treated acidic red soils

This study demonstrates that the combined application of organic amendments and phosphorus fertilizers enhances phosphorus acquisition in *Camellia oleifera* on acidic red soils by simultaneously improving root architectural plasticity and expanding rhizosphere phosphatase hotspots, which collectively increase bioavailable phosphorus pools and plant uptake.
