Identification and functional analysis of a chromosome 2D fragment harboring TaFPF1 gene with the potential for yield improvement using a late heading wheat mutant
Theor Appl Genet. 2024 Apr 3;137(4):92. doi: 10.1007/s00122-024-04593-1.ABSTRACTA chromosome fragment influencing wheat heading and grain size was identified using mapping of m406 mutant. The study of TaFPF1 in this fragment provides more insights into wheat yield improvement. In recent years, wheat production has faced formidable challenges driven by rapid population growth and climate change, emphasizing the importance of improving specific agronomic traits such as heading date, spike length, and grain size. To identify potential genes for improving these traits, we screened a wheat EMS mutant library and identified a mu...

Development of calcium-modified biochar for enhanced phytoremediation of human-induced salt pollutants (HISPs)
Chemosphere. 2024 Mar 31:141860. doi: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141860. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSoil salinization is a major environmental hazard that limits land availability. Human-induced salt pollutants (HISPs) are regularly presented in large quantities on the contaminated site (such as brine leakages and salt-water spills), causing a devastating shock with high salt stress to the ecosystem. For instance, Saskatchewan resulted in a 48% drop in wheat production and a 0.3% decline in provincial GDP. As the calcium-modified biochar can potentially ameliorate the negative effects of HISPs on plants and improve the ...

Larval performance of Zophobas morio (F.) (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) on various diets enriched with post-distillation residues and essential oils of aromatic and medicinal plants
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2024 Apr 2. doi: 10.1007/s11356-024-32603-8. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe increasing demands for resources driven by the global population necessitate exploring sustainable alternatives for affordable animal protein over the use of traditional protein sources. Insects, with their high protein content, offer a promising solution, especially when reared on agricultural post-distillation residues for enhanced sustainability and cost-effectiveness. We assessed the development of Zophobas morio (F.) (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) larvae on diets enriched with essential oils and post-distillation re...

Balancing agricultural production and environmental sustainability: Insights from a field experiment in the North China Plain
This study comprised eight meticulously designed treatments, incorporating two key components: the evaluation of economic and environmental parameters encompassing carbon footprint, energy consumption, and the carbon sustainability index. Notably, while the carbon sustainability index exhibited improvement, it also revealed a 9.4% increase in emissions compared to the baseline, underscoring the nuanced trade-offs involved. The findings underscored the efficacy of no-tillage (NT) practices coupled with soybean-based crop rotation, mitigating yield reduction compared to conventional tillage (RT). However, the optimal yield w...

The effects of soil inoculation with Pseudomonas sp. W112 on Cd accumulation in wheat were investigated by analyzing the transport, subcellular distribution and speciation of Cd in the soil and plants. Pseudomonas sp. W112 application significantly decreased Cd content in the roots, internode and grains by 10.2%, 29.5% and 33.0%, respectively, and decreased Cd transfer from the basal nodes to internodes by 63.5%.
