Biological and chemical characterization in relation to the yield of radish (Raphanus sativus L.) nourished with humus from plant residues
The objective was to determine the appropriate dose of humus to obtain greater yield and its relationship with the chemical and biological characteristics of the radish. It is based on applied methodology with an experimental approach; Therefore, the Completely Random Block Design model was used, which consisted of 3 blocks and 5 treatments that were T1 with 0, T2 with 4, T3 with 6, T4 with 8 and T5 with 10 t/ha of humus and They applied 15 days after sowing. The physical characteristics of the radish were evaluated and processed using analysis of variance and Duncan. Concentration of elements in leaves and stomatal densit...

Metagenomics reveals the variations in functional metabolism associated with greenhouse gas emissions during legume-vegetable rotation process
Ecotoxicol Environ Saf. 2024 Apr 1;275:116268. doi: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2024.116268. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLegume-based rotation is commonly recognized for its mitigation efficiency of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. However, variations in GHG emission-associated metabolic functions during the legume-vegetable rotation process remain largely uncharacterized. Accordingly, a soybean-radish rotation field experiment was designed to clarify the responses of microbial communities and their GHG emission-associated functional metabolism through metagenomics. The results showed that the contents of soil organic carbon and tot...

Colonization of Raphanus sativus by human pathogenic microorganisms
In this study, we tested the susceptibility of radish (Raphanus sativus) to colonization by different HPMOs, including Escherichia coli PCM 2561, Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica PCM 2565, Listeria monocytogenes PCM 2191 and Bacillus cereus PCM 1948. We hypothesized that host plant roots containing bactericidal compounds are less prone to HPMO colonization than shoots and leaves. We also determined the effect of selected pathogens on radish growth to check host plant–microbe interactions. We found that one-week-old radish is susceptible to colonization by selected HPMOs, as the presence of the tested HPMOs was demonst...

Absorption ‐Based Rapid Acquisition of Single‐Molecule Kinetics from Unstable Enzymes in Microdroplets
A label-free imaging method based on the absorption of the reaction molecules is developed for the study of single-molecule catalysis with high throughput, which offers an indispensable route for the rapid statistical analysis of various single-molecule catalytic reactions, making it particularly suitable for the acquisition of catalytic kinetics from highly unstable enzymes. AbstractSingle-molecule catalysis reflects the heterogeneity of each molecule, providing a unique insight into the complex catalytic mechanism through the statistics of stochastic individuals. However, the present study methods for single-molecule cat...

Association between kimchi consumption and obesity based on BMI and abdominal obesity in Korean adults: a cross-sectional analysis of the Health Examinees study
Conclusions and relevance Consumption of 1–3 servings/day of total kimchi was associated with a lower risk of obesity in men. Baechu kimchi was associated with a lower prevalence of obesity in men, and kkakdugi was associated with a lower prevalence of abdominal obesity in both men and women. However, since all results showed a ‘J-shaped’ association, it is recommended to limit excessive kimchi intake. (Source: BMJ Open)
