Growth but Not Corticosterone, Oxidative Stress, or Telomere Length Is Negatively Affected by Microplastic Exposure in a Filter‐Feeding Amphibian

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microplastics (MPs) are of increasing global concern for species inhabiting aquatic habitats. However, the mechanisms behind animal responses to MPs still require comprehensive exploration. Amphibians are the most threatened vertebrate group with most species having a complex life cycle, commonly with an aquatic larval stage.

Liebig Review: Legume–Rhizobium Symbiosis Under Selenium Fertilization: A Unique Dual Function in the Plant–Soil System

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Selenium (Se) plays a vital role as a beneficial element in promoting the production of leguminous plants. It influences legume quality by improving crop nutritive value and contributing to human and animal health. Literature Review This review is timely, as there are gaps in understanding Se–rhizobia interactions in legumes, which ...

Microplastics in Agricultural Soil: Fate, Impacts, and Bioremediation by Earthworms

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
Microplastics enter the soil through various means, including the degradation of plastic film mulch, waste from cosmetics industries and municipalities, and the use of bioplastic seed coatings. These microplastics disrupt soil structure, microbial activity, enzyme function, and plant growth.

Selenium biofortification: integrating one health and sustainability

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Selenium (Se) biofortification in crops has emerged as a promising strategy to address global Se deficiencies and enhance both agricultural productivity and human health. Increasing the Se content of crops through biofortification improves their resilience to abiotic and biotic stresses and boosts their nutritional value.
