Past, present and future of local crop evolution

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).

Temporal and spatial distribution, sources and health risk assessment of trace elements in a typical karst river basin in Southwest China: Influence of acid mine drainage from abandoned coal mines

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Karst water serves as a crucial water source in global karst regions. However, acid mine drainage (AMD) produced by coal mining, characterized by low pH and elevated concentrations of trace elements (TEs), threatens karst water quality. Thus, identifying
