Brain physiology during photoperiod-related caste determination in the primitively eusocial wasp Polistes jokahamae

open access: yesScientific Reports
Adult females of the primitively eusocial wasp Polistes jokahamae can change caste in response to photoperiod length. Short-day photoperiod females store more lipids but have less developed ovaries for hibernation (becoming gynes), whereas long-day ...

Unveiling the Effects of Crop Rotation on Cropland Soil pH Mapping: A Remote Sensing-Based Soil Sample Grouping Strategy

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Crop rotation affects soil pH by disturbing H+ production and consumption within soil–crop systems, primarily through fertilization, irrigation, cropping, and harvest. Studies have shown that crop rotation improves soil organic matter prediction. However,

Soil Seed Banks and Their Relation to Soil Properties in Hilly Landscapes

open access: yesPlants, 2023
For the prevention of hilly soils from erosion, a smart selection of crop rotations is very important. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of different agrophytocenoses on seed numbers in the soil runoff sediments and soil seed banks ...

Optimization of crop rotation calendar to maximize system-level productivity under climate change

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Communications
Crop rotation offers multifaceted benefits for climate change adaptation and mitigation. As rising temperatures shorten the crop duration from sowing to harvest, it is necessary to adjust the rotation order and sowing dates of crops in a rotation system.

The content of Fusarium mycotoxins, grain yield and quality of winter wheat cultivars under organic and conventional cropping systems

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2008
Nine cultivars of winter wheat were compared in organic and conventional crop rotation systems. Bread-making quality was evaluated using three parameters [thousand-kernel weight (TKW) in g, volume weight in g/l, protein content in %].

3D (Bio) Printing Combined Fiber Fabrication Methods for Tissue Engineering Applications: Possibilities and Limitations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...
