Biochar‐based fertilizers increase crop yields in acidic tropical soils

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Depletion of soil organic carbon and nutrients creates mounting challenges for agricultural production in tropical regions, putting livelihoods and food security at risk. Biochar‐based fertilizer (BBF) has been suggested as a tool to maintain yields while concurrently improving soil organic carbon content and related soil functions. This study

TOLERANCE OF PEANUT GENOTYPES TO ACIDIC SOIL CONDITION

open access: yesAGRIVITA Journal of Agricultural Science, 2013
The acidic soil is generally less productive due to soil pH ranging from 3.1 to 5.0. However, it could be solved through soil amelioration, planting tolerant varieties to acidic soil condition, and a combination of both. Twenty peanut genotypes including

Ovaries with different heterozygosity levels of their genotypes have equal chances to reach maturity on a buckwheat plant: Is it the main condition for the start of the evolution toward selfing?

open access: yesТруды по прикладной ботанике, генетике и селекции
Background. Inbreeding depression (ID) usually reduces the competitive ability of an individual compared to one of outbred origin. Such competition could be especially clear between different ovaries developing on the same plant.

Copper in cancer: friend or foe? Metabolism, dysregulation, and therapeutic opportunities

open access: yesCancer Communications, EarlyView.
Abstract Copper, one of the essential nutrients for the human body, acts as an electron relay in multiple pathways due to its redox properties. Both deficiencies and excesses of copper lead to cellular fragility. Therefore, it can manifest pro‐ and anti‐cancer properties in tumors. Therefore, it is crucial to clarify the copper activity within the cell.
