Influence of Tapered‐End and Round‐End Bristle Designs on the Abrasive Enamel Wear Using Toothpastes With High Discrepancies in Abrasiveness

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose The aim of this in vitro study was to investigate the influence of bristle end design of toothbrushes and the relative enamel abrasivity (REA) of used toothpaste on the resulting abrasive enamel wear. Materials and Methods A total of 160 bovine enamel samples were allocated into eight groups (n = 20) and surface topography was recorded

Glycine Betaine Induces Tolerance to Oxidative Stress in Cherry Radishes under High-Temperature Conditions

Agronomy
Cool-season plant growth and development are impacted by high temperatures. As a biostimulant, glycine betaine is responsible for inducing tolerance to both biotic and abiotic stressors.

Oviposition Behaviour, Nymphal Development and Below‐Ground Olfactory Preference of Pentastiridius leporinus on 12 Beta vulgaris Genotypes

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The planthopper Pentastiridius leporinus (Hemiptera: Cixiidae) is the primary vector of two phloem‐restricted prokaryotes, which can cause the disease syndrome de basses richesses (SBR) in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.). Heavy infestations of this insect have contributed to significant yield losses in Central Europe, but little is known about ...

Salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes: Development, physiological functions, and prospects for improving crop salt tolerance

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review examines salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes, in which epidermal stem cells differentiate into unicellular, bicellular, or multicellular salt glands. Salt ions are transported to the leaves via the transpiration stream and enter salt glands through symplastic and apoplastic pathways. Finally, salt glands actively secrete salt ions from the

Genomic variation drives plant flavor diversification

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review explains how genomic variation shapes plant flavor by altering the biosynthetic and regulatory pathways of key attributes like sweetness, acidity, bitterness, piquancy, astringency, and aroma. It also discusses how multi‐omics, AI‐assisted breeding, and gene editing can translate this knowledge into plants with improved flavor, nutrition ...

Melatonin seed priming: A climate‐smart, green strategy to enhance abiotic stress tolerance in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes how melatonin seed priming preconditions seeds to enhance tolerance against diverse abiotic stresses. It highlights the underlying mechanisms and proposes an integrative roadmap of advanced molecular and breeding tools to design next‐generation, stress‐smart plants.

Dietary L‐Tyrosine Sustains Egg Production and Quality by Modulating Promoter CpG Methylation, Gene Expression, and Hormone Profiles in Reproductive Signalling Pathways of Aged Laying Hens

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Managing prolactin (PRL)‐mediated reproductive suppression is critical for maintaining egg production in commercial laying hens. L‐tyrosine (TYR), a precursor of dopamine (DA), may counteract age‐related reproductive decline by suppressing PRL, thereby sustaining productivity and egg quality in late‐phase laying hens.

Evaluation of Torula Yeast (Candida utilis) Single Cell Proteins as a Partial Replacement for Soybean Meal in Broiler Diets: Effects on Productive Performance, Meat Quality Traits, and Plasma Metabolome

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over recent years the use of yeast in feedstuffs has gained momentum due to novel developments in single‐cell proteins (SCPs). SCPs are considered a sustainable protein source, as their production enable to convert low‐value substrates (including industrial/agricultural wastes) into feed, with a related reduced environmental impact.
