Agronomy for sustainable agriculture. A review [PDF]

Agronomy for Sustainable Development, 2009
Sustainability rests on the principle that we must meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Starving people in poor nations, obesity in rich nations, increasing food prices, on-going climate changes, increasing fuel and transportation costs, flaws of the global market, worldwide ...

Implantable Ion‐Selective Organic Electrochemical Transistors Enable Continuous, Long‐Term, and In Vivo Plant Monitoring

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work explores ion‐selective organic electrochemical transistors for real‐time, long‐term potassium monitoring in the xylem sap of living trees. This bioelectronic approach provides new insights into plant physiology and has the potential to revolutionize forest, agricultural, and ecological monitoring for smarter, more sustainable plant management.

The Mitochondrial Protein RESISTANCE to APHIDS 9 Interacts with S40 to Resist Aphid Infestation by Modulating Reactive Oxygen Species Homeostasis in Maize (Zea mays)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies the mitochondrial protein RTA9, a member of the Domain of Unknown Function 641 family, together with its partner S40, as key regulators of aphid resistance in maize. RTA9 promotes S40 degradation and modulates reactive oxygen species accumulation.

Movement Mechanisms Harness Lévy Flight for Energy‐Efficient Wastewater Treatment in Microalgae–Bacteria Systems

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Here, our novel model that integrates metabolism with motility dynamics reveals that microalgae shift bacterial movement toward Lévy flight patterns, enhancing encounter rates and self‐aggregation. This microecological manipulation reduces energy costs, strengthens functions such as pollutant removal and system stability.

A Natural Major Module Confers the Trade‐Off between Phenotypic Mean and Plasticity of Grain Chalkiness in Rice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals the genetic and molecular mechanisms controlling the general trade‐off between phenotypic mean and plasticity of grain chalkiness in rice and identifies two major external drivers (high temperature and wide grain) and a natural major module (GCP6‐MPC5) that control this trade‐off.

Depth‐Dependence Changes in Soil Stoichiometry in China's Croplands Over the Past Four Decades

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals depth‐dependent changes in soil C:N:P ratios across Chinese croplands over four decades. Changes in stoichiometry vary markedly between topsoil and subsoil, with initial soil C:N:P ratios playing a key role in determining their trajectories.

Dual‐Emission Carbon Dot Nanozymes Mitigate Salt Stress and Enhance Photosynthesis for Crop Germination and Growth

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Dual‐emission carbon dot nanozymes are synthesized via microwave method. The nanozymes enhance photosynthesis corn seedlings through spectral‐matched light conversion. Their superoxide dismutase‐mimetic activity scavenges salt stress‐induced reactive oxygen species and circumvents energy‐intensive stress responses.
