The effect of cracks on mechanical properties of round bamboo
Abstract Cracks are inevitable defects in engineering applications of round bamboo. However, existing research on the effects of cracks on the mechanical properties remains insufficient. In this study, systematic mechanical tests were conducted on crack-free (B1) and cracked (B2)...

Abstract Background The calmodulin-binding protein 60-like protein family plays important roles in plant immunity and stress responses, but its functions in ornamental plants remain poorly understood. In this study, we characterized PhCBP60b from Petunia × hybrida ‘Mitchell Diplo...

ABSTRACT The long‐standing disconnection between enrichment and identification processes fundamentally limits the reliable tracing of microplastics (MPs) in complex aqueous and biological environments. Inspired by the synergistic structure–function design of bee leg villi, we rep...

Distinct Evolutionary Constraints Shape TNL and CNL Immune Receptors in Wild and Cultivated Tomato
Nucleotide-binding site leucine-rich repeat (NLR, historically termed NBS-LRR) proteins are among the most rapidly evolving components of plant innate immunity, yet comparative analyses of NLR subfamily diversification between wild and cultivated accessions of tomato (Solanum lyc...

Abstract Soil organic matter (SOM) is a crucial indicator of soil quality and carbon sequestration capacity. In regions with complex topographic and climatic gradients such as Anhui Province, the spatial patterns of SOM and its environmental controls remain insufficiently charact...

The precise enhancement of nutritional quality in silage maize is a core strategy for increasing livestock production efficiency. Through evolutionary analysis of multiple plant species, we identified two functionally synergistic upstream open reading frames (uORF1 and uORF2) wit...

Exogenous spermidine (Spd) improves the tolerance to alkaline-salt stress in potato
Abstract Background Potato ( Solanum tuberosum L.) is the world’s fourth most important staple crop, but its production is increasingly threatened by soil salinization, particularly alkaline-salt stress caused by excessive NaHCO 3 . Although exogenous spermidine (Spd) has been re...

CFD-Based Simulation and Optimization of Summer Environmental Conditions in Laying Hen Houses
To address uneven temperature and relative humidity distributions, localized heat accumulation, and insufficient air velocity in an enclosed stacked-cage laying hen house, a three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of the laying hen house was developed using fie...

ABSTRACT Deep straw incorporation is widely advocated for enhancing crop yields and improving agroecosystem functions and services. However, how this practice interacts with different fertilization strategies synergistically to influence soil quality and maize productivity remain...
