Multi-Algorithm Hierarchical Minimum Data Sets for Soil Quality Assessment in the Black Soil Region of Northeast China: A Case Study in Keshan County

The Northeast black soil region is a major grain-producing area in China, where county-scale assessment of topsoil quality is essential for soil conservation and provides a potential indicator framework for regional soil quality monitoring. In this study, 500 composite cultivated...

Translating and reframing of the narratives of “Fó” (佛) in Journey to the West: a case study on Lovell’s translation

Abstract This study examines British sinologist Julia Lovell’s abridged English translation of Journey to the West , focusing on how narratives of “佛” ( Fó , Buddhas) are translated and reframed through socio-narrative theory. It argues that Lovell’s translation substantially di...

Unlocking the Anticancer Potential of Patchouli Leaves: Molecular Mechanisms and Translational Perspectives

Cancer remains one of the leading causes of global mortality, with its incidence continuing to rise due to population growth, aging, lifestyle factors, and environmental exposures. Despite significant advances in early diagnosis and therapeutic strategies, the clinical management...

Heterogeneity and Controlling Mechanisms of Soil Organic Carbon Stocks Across Erosion Zones in China Under Future Climate Scenarios

ABSTRACT Soil organic carbon (SOC), as a key indicator of global carbon cycling and climate change response, plays a critical role in regional ecological security and agricultural sustainability. This study employs three machine learning models including the LightGBM, XGBoost, an...

Synthetic microbial communities: emerging live biotherapeutics for targeted gut microbiome modulation

Gut microbiome dysbiosis causes various intestinal diseases. However, an undefined composition and potential biosafety risks limit the applicability of traditional fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT). Synthetic microbial communities (SynComs), which are compositionally defined...

Effects of long-term storage on proteome and quality characteristics of soybean

As an important source of plant protein and oil, soybean's protein quality degradation during storage can significantly affect processing characteristics and product quality. However, research on the molecular changes of soy protein under long-term storage is still limited. This...

Integrated Metabolomic and Transcriptomic Analyses of Longissimus Thoracis Muscle Provide Insights into Metabolic Differences Between Yanbian and Yanhuang Cattle

Meat quality is an important economic trait in beef cattle and is influenced by breed-related metabolic characteristics. Yanbian cattle (YB) are valued for desirable meat quality, whereas Yanhuang cattle (YH), developed using Limousin cattle as the paternal line and Yanbian cattl...

Behavioral Effects and Potential Mechanisms of Imidacloprid-and Flupyradifurone-Induced Neurotoxicity in Caenorhabditis elegans

Abstract Neonicotinoid insecticides raise concerns about neurotoxicity in nontarget organisms, motivating evaluation of alternatives such as flupyradifurone (FPF). We compared the neurotoxicity of imidacloprid (IMI) and FPF in Caenorhabditis elegans after 72 h exposure to 0.1–100...

Bacillus velezensis B313-6 as a Potential Biocontrol Strain Against Anthracnose of Panax quinquefolius, and Its Fermentation Optimization, and Field Efficacy on American Ginseng

Anthracnose of American ginseng is caused by Colletotrichum panacicola. In this study, Bacillus velezensis B313-6, isolated from the rhizosphere soil of American ginseng, was identified based on morphological, physiological, biochemical, 16S rRNA, and the gyrase subunit A protein...
