Linking Plant Metabolomics with Fungal Functional Dynamics Reveals a Noncanonical S‐R‐C Adaptive Trajectory

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Using field‐based holo‐omics, we demonstrate that developmental shifts in sorghum leaf metabolomes drive a noncanonical fungal succession from stress tolerators (S) through ruderals (R) to competitors (C). Antifungal metabolites in young leaves select for S strategists with expanded genomes, transient maltose pulses during flowering favor fast‐growing ...

Water reuse for irrigated agriculture in Jordan: challenges of soil sustainability and the role of management strategies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Reclaimed water provides an important contribution to the water balance in water-scarce Jordan, but the quality of this water presents both benefits and challenges. Careful management of reclaimed water is required to maximize the nutrient benefits while

Synthesis of nitrogen-purged biochar and modification with hydrothermal activation: comparative assessment as adsorbents for effective elimination of Pb(II) and Cd(II) from wastewater

open access: yesDiscover Applied Sciences
For sustainable development, wastewater treatment and recycling are inevitable; using adsorbents to treat wastewater is widely accepted. This article is aimed to synthesize adsorbents (novel biochars) from agricultural wastes and to investigate the ...

Chitosan‐Carbon Dot Composite Materials Form a Leaf Surface Barrier to Mitigate the Enrichment and Invasion of Nanoplastics: From Leaf Interface to Systemic Response

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Foliar spraying of CS‐CDs can form a film on the leaves of Brassica rapa, effectively reducing the enrichment and absorption of PS in the leaves, while increasing the biomass and nutrient content of the plants. In addition, CS‐CDs can also enrich the interfoliar microbial community and activate the plant's own defense metabolic pathways.

AGRICULTURE AS A MANAGED ECOSYSTEM: POLICY IMPLICATIONS [PDF]

open access: yes
One of the greatest challenges facing agriculture for the foreseeable future is to resolve conflicts caused by a growing competition for the services of the soil, water, and other natural resources on which agriculture depends-driven by growing demands ...

Development and testing of a risk indexing framework to determine field-scale critical source areas of faecal bacteria on grassland. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This paper draws on lessons from a UK case study in the management of diffuse microbial pollution from grassland farm systems in the Taw catchment, south west England. We report on the development and preliminary testing of a field-scale faecal indicator

Additive effects of lime and phosphorus fertilization on maize yield, nutrient uptake, and soil health in upland acidic soils

open access: yesDiscover Soil
Soil acidity is a critical constraint limiting crop productivity and nutrient availability in upland cropping systems. Acidic soils impede plant growth by reducing nutrient solubility and disrupting key soil processes such as mineralization.

The Third‐Generation Magnetic Super‐Stable Mineralizer: Complete Removal and Separation of Multiple Heavy Metal Pollutants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The 3rd‐generation magnetic super‐stable mineralizer M‐MgAl‐700 features a core‐shell structure, strong superparamagnetism, large surface area, and abundant oxygen defects. It achieves exceptional Cd(II) and As(V) mineralization capacities, reducing both pollutants in co‐contaminated water and soil to meet national standards.
