Biofortification of finger millet with zinc and iron under biochar amendment: Effects of soil and foliar fertilization on yield and grain quality

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Biofortification is an effective strategy to improve the micronutrient content of staple crops. However, biofortification of finger millet (Eleusine coracana L.) with zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe) has not been adequately investigated under biochar amendment.

An Economical Bioprocess for Lipopeptide Production From Bacillus subtilis

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
The lipopeptide (LP) production potential of Bacillus isolates was evaluated against phytopathogenic fungi, with B. subtilis 4‐Ka‐22 identified as the top‐performing strain. Optimization of the production medium—comprising molasses, soybean meal, CaCl2, and glycerol—resulted in a 13.4‐fold increase in cell growth and over 99% cost reduction compared to

Biological Degradation of Spent Coffee Grounds by White Rot Fungi

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Spent coffee grounds (SCG) are an extensively generated byproduct of coffee production and consumption. This study demonstrates the ability of white rot fungi to degrade SCG, achieving more than 40% carbohydrate reduction and producing active lignocellulose‐degrading enzymes, highlighting a potential biological approach for the valorization of this ...
