Natural Variation of NAR5 Determines Nitrogenase Activity and the Yield in Soybean

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identified NAR5, a gene encoding a subtilisin‐like protease, that regulates nitrogenase activity in soybean nodules. Overexpressing NAR5 delayed nodule senescence, enhancing nitrogenase activity, yield, and low‐nitrogen tolerance. The elite haplotype NAR5HapI‐1 linked to superior nitrogenase activity and greater seed weight has been ...

Improving supply and phosphorous use efficiency in organic farming systems [PDF]

, 2006
Phosphorus (P) is an essential plant nutrient that needs to be managed carefully in organic systems so that crop yield and quality remain sustainable without contributing to environmental damage, particularly that associated with eutrophication.

Scientometric analysis of Colombian research on bio-inoculants for agricultural production

Universitas Scientiarum, 2016
The excessive use of synthetic chemical inputs in agricultural production has led to the disruption of biogeochemical cycles. One of the alternatives that arose within the systems of sustainable agriculture was the partial or total replacement of ...

A Photothermal‐Responsive PRP‐Loaded Hydrogel Engineered With Composite Nanobottle for Controllable Delivery of Growth Factors and Multifunctional Therapy of Diabetic Wounds

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A photothermal‐responsive engineered platelet‐rich plasma hydrogel (CNB‐ePRP) incorporated with thrombin‐functionalized composite nanobottle was developed, which enables in situ PRP activation, on‐demand growth factor release, multifunctionality, and personalized antimicrobial loading for treatment of diabetic wounds. The CNB‐ePRP hydrogel demonstrated

Challenges and opportunities on the use of bio fertilizers: cases study from Senegal and Kenya [PDF]

, 2014
Not only phosphorus (P) bioavailable in soil is very low but phosphate fertilizing efficiency is also low. Consequently, annual world P demand increases predicting phosphorus stock end in the coming 125 years.

Plant‐Derived Melatonin Inhibits Bacterial Virulence via CpxA/R Two‐Component System

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Plant‐derived melatonin is sensed by CpxAE48/T51, which inhibits the phosphorylation cascade transmission from CpxAH240 to CpxRD52, resulting in the inhibition of DNA‐binding capacity of CpxR and subsequent T3SS genes expression in Pst DC3000. ABSTRACT In defending against pathogens, plants deploy diverse secondary metabolites and signaling molecules ...

Microbial bioinputs in Brazilian agriculture

Journal of Integrative Agriculture
Brazil maintains a leading position in agricultural exports and stands as the world's foremost producer and user of bioinputs in agriculture. These bioinputs generate annual savings of billions of dollars that would otherwise be allocated to chemical ...
