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 ...

Cover crops and nitrogen rates: Impacts on no‐till corn and soil health in Louisiana
Abstract Use of cover cropping systems to improve soil health is still limited in Louisiana. This study aimed to examine the interaction between cover crops and nitrogen (N) fertilizer rates on crop yield, soil chemical, and biological properties. Winter cover crop treatments, including legumes, a grass and brassica, and a fallow control, were combined

The review discusses stimuli‐responsive hydrogels as soft optical materials that translate physical, chemical, and biological cues into refractive‐index, scattering, birefringence, diffraction, and transparency changes. It examines major stimulus classes and photonic architectures for biosensing, waveguiding, adaptive lenses, smart windows, and therapy.

In this investigation, Withania somnifera root ethanol extract displays anti‐inflammatory and antidiabetic properties. Though compounds including withasomniferolide B and sitoindoside IX have been previously identified as phytoconstituents in the plant, in silico analysis from this study revealed them as new lead compounds that could act as potential ...

The Wonders of Vanilla: Celebrating the 150th Anniversary of Synthetic Vanillin
The year 2024 marked the 150th anniversary of the first commercial production of vanillin, one of the world's most cherished flavor ingredients. This review traces vanilla's history from Mesoamerica to modern production methods, examines its composition, the discovery of vanillin and Haarmann's early synthesis compared to modern methods, and highlights
