Mitigation of cadmium, lead and copper uptake in French beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) using Vermicompost-assisted phytomanagement under contaminated irrigated soils

This study demonstrates that combining vermicompost soil amendments with furrow irrigation significantly reduces the uptake of cadmium, lead, and copper in French bean tissues by enhancing metal immobilization and regulating soil moisture, offering a sustainable phytomanagement strategy for safer crop production in contaminated irrigated soils.

Comparative Evaluation of AMMI, GGE, GYT, and Bayesian Models for Risk-Based Selection of Forage Sorghum in multi-environmental trials

This study integrates classical multivariate stability analyses (AMMI, GGE, GYT) with Bayesian modeling to evaluate 30 forage sorghum genotypes across diverse environments, identifying specific high-yielding and stable varieties (notably G30, G24, G21, and G25) while demonstrating that combining frequentist and probabilistic approaches provides a robust framework for risk-based cultivar selection in climate-resilient forage improvement.
