Functionally complementary bacterial inoculant coordinates arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to improve Angelica sinensis root yield and quality

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Comprehensive understanding of how diverse PGPR strains enhance the rhizosphere microenvironment remains a considerable challenge. Here, we provide experimental evidence that a functionally synergistic composite microbial formulation can markedly enhance growth performance and improve the quality attributes in Angelica sinensis.

A state-of-the-art review on loess tunnels

open access: yesJournal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online)
China's loess distribution area covers 640,000 km2, accounting for about 6.6% of its land area and about 4.9% of the world's total loess distribution area.

East Asian monsoon variability over the last seven glacial cycles recorded by a loess sequence from the northwestern Chinese Loess Plateau

open access: yes, 2006
A 180-m-thick loess-paleosol sequence from the northwestern Chinese Loess Plateau was investigated to construct a high-resolution record of the East Asian monsoon variability over the last seven glacial-interglacial cycles.

Cyanobacteria and loess-an underestimated interaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Biocrusts are important functional units in dryland ecosystems. Regarded as ecosystem engineers, cyanobacteria in biocrusts contribute several major physico-chemical and biological processes.

A spatiotemporal single‐cell atlas of porcine development reveals regulatory dynamics and cellular targets of domestication

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
This study presents a cross‐tissue, single‐cell/single‐nucleus transcriptomic atlas spanning from prenatal to postnatal developmental stages in pig, characterizing 83 distinct cell types from 252,033 cells. Through the construction of cross‐tissue transcriptional regulatory networks and pseudotime trajectories, we revealed that organogenesis is driven ...

Relationships among protozoa, bacteria and fungi in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-contaminated soils

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Soil bacterial and fungal communities play key roles in the degradation of organic contaminants, and their structure and function are regulated by bottom-up and top-down factors. Microbial ecological effects of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and

Characterisation and paleoclimatic signals within tephric loess deposits aged between c. 33 to 9.5 cal ka in the Rotorua area, northern New Zealand

open access: yes, 2012
I studied tephric loess deposits aged between c. 33 and 9.5 cal ka in the Rotorua region, north-east central North Island. I produced a stratigraphic framework for the loess deposits and characterised them using a range of field and laboratory methods to

Tetraether biomarker records from a loess-paleosol sequence in the western Chinese Loess Plateau

open access: yes, 2013
The ubiquitous occurrence of glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs) in soils and their ability to record temperature and environmental changes offer the prospect of independently reconstructing continental paleotemperature and paleoenvironment ...

Impact of Irrigation Scheduling on Corn Yield and Water Balance in Sandy Soils of Central Minnesota Using the EPIC Model.

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient irrigation scheduling is critical in sandy soils to achieve optimum yield and maximum net benefit with minimum environmental concerns. The Environmental Policy Integrated Climate (EPIC) model was used to study the impacts of autoirrigation of corn on crop yield and soil water balance during 2019–2021 at −300 and −450 kPa for loamy ...

In Silico Fragment Size Selection for Enhanced Fetal Fraction and Abnormality Origin Discernment Using Pair‐End Sequencing of Maternal Plasma DNA

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study presents a new bioinformatics pipeline for noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) that filters DNA fragments to significantly improve the fetal DNA fraction. This enhanced method successfully analyzed samples previously rejected for low fetal fraction and could distinguish between fetal and maternal chromosomal abnormalities.
