Functional Effects of the Pioneer Fern Dicranopteris on Soil Fertility and Its Spatial Patterns in Degraded Hilly Landscapes

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10340-10354, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Vegetation recovery is vital for reversing soil degradation in subtropical red soil regions. This study evaluates the role of the pioneer fern Dicranopteris in enhancing soil fertility and its spatial variability across degraded hills in South China.

Valorization of fruit pits from Prunus laurocerasus and Prunus cerasifera as agro‐food byproducts: Bioactive properties and safety assessment for potential food additive applications

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 10, Page 6002-6014, 15 August 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Food additives are widely used to extend the shelf life of foods and maintain their quality. In this study, the potential of Prunus laurocerasus and Prunus cerasifera fruit pits (endocarp and seed) as food additives was investigated in terms of cytotoxicity, antigenotoxicity, antioxidant activity, enzymatic anti‐browning, and urease

Biochar‐Induced Shifts in Fungal Community Structure and Their Association With Soil Physical Properties in Degraded Soil From the Brazilian Semiarid

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 9067-9083, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil degradation compromises ecosystem functioning. Biochar, a carbon‐rich amendment, has gained attention as a promising strategy to enhance soil structure and restore microbial balance. This study investigated the effects of two biochars, cashew bagasse biochar (CBB) and a co‐pyrolyzed biochar produced from sewage sludge and cashew pruning ...

Synthesis and Glycosidase Inhibition Studies of Novel Exoglycals Targeting GH3 Family Enzymes: Insights from Comparative Analysis with Macrolide Antibiotics

Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 32, Issue 29, 7 August 2026.
A series of structurally diverse exoglycals was synthesized using a modified Julia‐olefination approach from sugar‐derived precursors. These glycosidase transition‐state mimics were further diversified via CuAAC chemistry to yield triazole‐conjugated analogues.

Moutan Cortex Extract Mediates Diabetic Retinopathy by Blocking the ROS‑Triggered HIF‐1α/VEGF Axis in Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
Schematic diagram of the mechanism by which Moutan Cortex extract (MCE) ameliorates DR. MCE alleviates retinal structural damage and reduces neovascular lesions by downregulating the ROS/HIF‐1α/VEGF signaling axis. ABSTRACT Moutan Cortex is a functional food ingredient with multiple health benefits, but its effects on diabetic retinopathy (DR) remain ...
