Combining phenotypic, physiological, and multi‐omics studies to provide new insights on the role of 2,4‐epibrassinolide in regulation of seed shattering in Elymus sibiricus L.

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Seed shattering limits the production of Elymus sibiricus L., and application of exogenous brassinosteroid significantly alleviates plant organ abscission. Methods To explore the potential regulatory network of brassinosteroid on seed shattering, the abscission zone of E. sibiricus cv. Lanyu No.

A synthetic community promotes macadamia growth via root‐microbe interactions and systemic plant responses

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
We employed an 18‐month pot experiment and an integrated multi‐omics approach to elucidate the potential mechanisms underlying synthetic community (SynCom)‐mediated macadamia growth promotion. SynCom inoculation enhanced soil nitrogen cycling and potential nutrient (e.g., iron) acquisition.

Polydatin Alleviates APAP‐Induced Hepatotoxicity by Targeting C/EBPβ to Suppress the NLRP3 Inflammasome Signaling Pathway

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
PD alleviates APAP‐induced ALI by inhibiting the NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway. C/EBPβ is identified as a direct target via multimethod validation. PD promotes the deacetylation of C/EBPβ via Sirt1. The Sirt1/C/EBPβ/NLRP3 signaling axis is defined for PD's hepatoprotective effect.

Effects of mixed microbial fermentation on the quality and metabolite profile of cassava leaf feed based on untargeted metabolomics

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cassava leaves are a major byproduct of cassava processing and have a low utilization rate. In this study, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Bacillus subtilis were used for solid‐state fermentation of cassava leaves to improve their feed quality. Results After 48 h of fermentation, the feed pH decreased to

Cereal‐Legume Rotation Benefits Soil Ecosystem Multifunctionality by Improving the Efficiency of Microbial Carbon Pump

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cereal‐legume rotation is regarded as an important agricultural management strategy for enhancing soil organic carbon (SOC) and improving soil ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF). The soil microbial carbon pump (MCP) exerts a regulatory effect on the production of microbial necromass as well as the SOC accumulation.

Annual–Perennial Forage Mixtures Improve Forage Productivity and Soil Quality in Patchily Degraded Cultivated Pastures Under Grazing Management

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Patchy degradation of cultivated pastures under long‐term grazing is a serious issue limiting grassland productivity. The use of annual and perennial legume–grass mixtures, which offer complementary functional advantages, may provide a practical reseeding‐based approach for improving patchily degraded cultivated pastures; however, limited ...
