Gut Microbiota‐Non‐Coding RNA Axis in Immune Modulation and Disease: From Mechanisms to Clinical Translation

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
ABSTRACT Immune homeostasis is indispensable for preserving organismal integrity, orchestrated through complex molecular networks encompassing immune cell dynamics, microbial cues, and epigenetic regulation. Among these, the gut microbiota‐non‐coding RNA (ncRNA) axis has recently garnered substantial attention as a multifaceted modulator of host ...

Rootstock and Plastic Mulch Effect on Watermelon Flowering and Fruit Maturity in a Verticillium dahliae–Infested Field

HortScience, 2020
Separately, grafting and the use of plastic mulch can increase yield, quality, and early harvest of watermelon (Citrullus lanatus), especially when plants are under biotic and/or abiotic stress.

A Statistical Mechanics Model to Decode Tissue Crosstalk During Graft Formation

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 10, 18 February 2026.
We introduce a statistical mechanics framework to decode the genomic crosstalk governing plant grafting. By integrating evolutionary game theory with transcriptomics, we reconstruct idopNetworks (informative, dynamic, omnidirectional, and personalized networks) that map scion–rootstock interactions.

NEW GRAFTING METHOD FOR SEEDLESS WATERMELON PLANTS PROPAGATION [PDF]

Journal of Plant Production, 2008
Watermelon Citrullus lanatus is an important vegetable crop grown in Egypt. Seedless watermelon cultivars are preferred by most consumers because of their sweeter taste and lack of hard seeds. The growing costs of seedless watermelon (triploid hybrid watermelon) in Egypt is very expensive because its very expensive seed price, triploid seeds do not ...

Eggshell‐Based Biochar for Superior Adsorption of Crystal Violet Dye and Fluoride From Wastewater

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 21, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Present study investigates the efficiency of eggshell biochar as a low‐cost and ecofriendly adsorbent for the simultaneous removal of fluoride ions and crystal violet (CV) dye from wastewater. The eggshell waste was pyrolyzed to produce biochar, which was thoroughly characterized and subsequently employed for contaminant adsorption.

Toward an art of genomic selection in vegetable breeding

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Genomic selection (GS) is a powerful strategy for accelerating genetic gain in plant breeding. While in recent years GS has been widely adopted in breeding programs for agronomic crops, its implementation in vegetable breeding has been comparatively limited.

First Measurements of Mixed Floral Traits Influencing Anacardium occidentale (Anacardeacae) Attractiveness to Bees in Côte d'Ivoire: Conservation and Agricultural Implications

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
This paper will contribute to include/use the bees' floral preference (floral traits related to bee' visitations) to find and validate genetic markers that would enable breeding high‐yielding cashew plants and preserving pollinators. ABSTRACT In Sub‐Saharan Africa, cashew plants face challenges in suitable pollination and good agronomic performances ...

Functionality Enhancement of Pullulan‐Based Composites for Food Packaging Applications

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Contemporary research in food packaging is focused on developing sustainable alternatives to petroleum‐based materials. Pullulan, a microbial biopolymer traditionally employed as a food additive, is harnessing interest for food packaging applications due to its exceptional film‐forming ability, biodegradability, and nontoxic nature.

Optimization of Podocarpus falcatus Seed Oil Epoxidation Using a Sulfonated Carbon Catalyst Derived From Rice Husk

International Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
With the growing environmental concern and the limited global reserves of fossil fuels, the search for sustainable, nontoxic, and environmentally friendly substitutes for oil of mineral origin has become imperative. Podocarpus falcatus seed oil as a renewable resource for the production of epoxy oils has been explored in this research.
