Influence de l’amorçage sur les paramètres morphologiques et physiologiques au cours de la croissance de la variété c26 de riz cultivée en conditions pluviales et de bas-fond en Côte d’Ivoire [PDF]

Revue Hybrides
Rice is a cereal that constitutes the staple food of more than half of the world’s population. In recent years yields have fallen relative to demand. This drop in rice production is linked to cultural practices and also to the condition of the seeds at ...

Multi‐Scale Bionic Structure Constructs Biomass Flame‐Retardant Thermal Insulation Foam Material

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by mussel adhesion and hierarchical brick‐and‐mortar architectures, a cellulose‐based biomimetic foam is constructed by anchoring bentonite nanosheets onto a polydopamine‐decorated cellulose nanofiber network. The resulting foam combines low thermal conductivity with intrinsic flame retardancy and full biodegradability, presenting a ...

Toward Material‐Specific Peptides From in Silico Guided Peptide Engineering to Target PET in the Presence of PS

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a computational–experimental strategy to engineer material‐binding peptides toward polymer specificity. Molecular dynamics simulations identified residues driving polystyrene binding, enabling targeted substitutions that greatly reduced polystyrene affinity while preserving PET binding.

Ionically Counter‐Programmable Phase‐Separation of Superstable Star‐Biopolyamide Coacervates for Electrothermally‐Responsive Pseudosolid Smart Windows

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We develop bio‐based, star‐branched polyamides from itaconic acid and cadaverine with tunable lower critical solution temperature (LCST) transitions for dynamic solar modulation. Specific metal ion coordination with pyrrolidone moieties drives precise phase transitions via calcium‐induced salting‐in and sodium‐induced salting‐out mechanisms. Formulated

Gradient‐Oxidized Bacterial Cellulose for Self‐Sustained Soil Moisture Sensing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An asymmetric encapsulated bacterial cellulose device integrates a gradient‐oxidized BC framework with a LiCl‐doped Ecoflex hygroscopic layer, enabling self‐powered soil moisture monitoring through directional ion transport. The device sustains stable hydrovoltaic output, supports deep‐learning humidity classification, and fully biodegrades in soil ...

Pollution characteristics of microplastics in greenhouse soil profiles with the long-term application of organic compost

Resources, Environment and Sustainability
Organic composts are significant sources of microplastic (MP) pollution in soils, and their input is much higher in greenhouse agriculture than open-field agriculture.

Spectral Characterization and Indexing Methods for the Quality Assessment of Municipal Solid Waste Compost Prepared Using Novel Bacterial Consortia [PDF]

Nature Environment and Pollution Technology
Composting is one of the integral components of the global circular bio-economy platform. However, traditional composting contains major limitations, including its longer time requirement and the formation of odour.
