Mitigating Long-Chain Fatty Acid Inhibition in Anaerobic Digestion of Model LCFA Substrates with Ruminococcus flavefaciens Bioaugmentation

Anaerobic digestion of high-lipid waste possesses substantial biomethanation potential. However, its stability is readily inhibited by the accumulation of long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs). In this study, pure stearic acid and oleic acid were employed as model LCFA substrates to sim...

Response of Soil Ammonia−Oxidizing Microorganisms to Biochar Amendment Under Continuous Cropping and Crop Rotation Systems

Ammonia−oxidizing archaea (AOA), ammonia−oxidizing bacteria (AOB), and Comammox are key drivers of soil nitrification and play crucial roles in soil nitrogen cycling, with distinct functional contributions. AOA and AOB primarily drive the first step of nitrification by oxidizing...

Mitigation of GenX Transfer to Brown Rice ( Oryza sativa L.) by Phosphorus Management and Phosphate-Solubilizing Bacteria: Hydroponic Screening and Flooded-Soil Validation

Abstract GenX is a mobile replacement PFAS that can enter edible rice tissues through soil-water-plant transfer. This study combined hydroponic screening with flooded-soil pot validation to evaluate whether phosphorus (P) sources and phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB) reduce G...

Metabolomic analysis reveals that exogenous L-valine enhances saline-alkali tolerance in germinating adzuki bean (Vigna angularis)

Abstract At present, there is limited information available regarding the response of adzuki bean to saline-alkali stress. Here, we explored the saline-alkaline stress response mechanisms of two adzuki bean germplasms, namely the tolerant XD168 and the sensitive XD8, which were p...

Genome-Wide Identification of the Soybean GH5 Gene Family and Functional Analysis of GmGH5-22 in Salt Tolerance

Plant GH5 family genes function in both cell wall biosynthesis and stress responses. However, comprehensive studies on GH5 genes in the soybean remain limited. Here, we identified 28 GmGH5 genes from the soybean genome. Phylogenetic analysis assigned these genes to three subfamil...

A maize canopy phenotypic traits detection method based on improved Mask2YOLO cascade deep learning network

High-throughput detection of phenotypic traits of the maize canopy is significant for cultivar selection, cultivation, and management. Addressing the difficulty of rapidly recognizing maize canopy organs from field-acquired images, this study proposed a maize canopy phenotypic tr...

Genome-wide identification of the chalcone synthase (CHS) family in tigernut and function analysis of cechs57 in drought stress response

Drought stress is a major abiotic constraint that severely impairs crop growth and reduces yield globally. Identification of drought-tolerant candidate genes and their application in molecular breeding represent effective strategies to alleviate drought-induced losses. Genome-wid...
