Rubber plant root properties induce contrasting soil aggregate stability through cohesive force and reduced land degradation risk in southern China [PDF]
SOILIn southern China, the island of Hainan faces land degradation risks due to a combination of soil physical, chemical, and climatic factors: soil physical properties like a high proportion of microaggregates (<0.25 mm), chemical properties such as low ...

Friction between Cohesive Soils and Steel
Soils and Foundations, 1993 ABSTRACT Laboratory tests on friction between cohesive soils and mild steel were carried out using a direct simple shear type of test apparatus. The cohesive soils were normally consolidated Kawasaki clay and four kinds of normally consolidated sand-clay mixtures. All tests were carried out under consolidated drained shear condition.

Climate Change Threatens Micronutrient Density of European Winter Wheat
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Micronutrients are vital for human health. Wheat is a major staple crop and a significant source of minerals and B‐vitamins. The impact of climate change on their content remains largely unknown. We evaluated micronutrient levels in European winter wheat grown under historical and projected climate conditions. Our findings indicate that future climates

Cross Kingdom Metabolic Engineering Paradigm Elevating Sustainable Protein Production
Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Confronting the dual crisis of escalating global protein demand and unsustainable agriculture necessitates transformative solutions. Here, we pioneer evolutionary insights from maize nitrogen optimization via asparagine synthetase (ASNS) to rewire metabolism in Pichia pastoris.

Mapping the “Supply–Demand–Flow” of Ecosystem Services for Ecosystem Management in China
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study develops a “supply–demand–flow” framework clarifies how ecosystem services move between regions by distinguishing potential and actual supply and demand. Using integrated biophysical–socioeconomic modeling, nine services in China were mapped.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Comparative genomics of Gondwana‐diverged Pila and Pomacea reveals parallel evolution of aerial oviposition. Convergent chromosomal rearrangements reshape regulatory landscapes within topologically associating domains. Lineage‐specific gene family expansions and viral‐derived perivitelline proteins (PV1) underpin desiccation resistance.
