Optimizing germination and cultivation of edible halophytes using effluents from an IMTA system

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Halophytes offer nature‐based solutions to food insecurity and soil degradation, while their integration into integrated multi‐trophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems promotes circular economy practices. This study aimed to optimize the germination and cultivation of edible halophytic species, namely Limbarda crithmoides, Suaeda vera and

Tuning Xylan Polymerisation Enhanced Fibre Digestibility Without Biomass Loss in Sheepgrass (Leymus chinensis)

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Leymus chinensis (sheepgrass), a dominant perennial grass of the Eurasian Steppe, is a crucial source of carbohydrates and energy for ruminants. However, the lignocellulose recalcitrance severely limits its digestibility. Here, we targeted xylan, a major hemicellulose interacting with cellulose and lignin in cell wall. To improve digestibility,
