ABSTRACT Adaptive Multi‐Paddock (AMP) grazing involves alternating short‐duration, high‐intensity grazing with extended recovery periods. It offers the potential to regenerate degraded rangelands while enhancing productivity. We compared vegetation, soil carbon, and water infiltration responses between nine matched pairs of ranches in North and South ...

ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic trace metal that causes severe environmental pollution and alters plants' physiological and biochemical responses. Although commercially synthesised silicon nanoparticles (SiNP) have been reported in alleviating biotic and abiotic stresses, the role of PV (photovoltaic) driven SiNP in modulating plant physio‐biochemical

ABSTRACT Perennial polycultures, with a combination of perenniality and vegetation diversity, have carbon mitigation potential and water conservation benefits, via increased plant carbon uptake and improved ecosystem water use efficiency (EWUE). Few studies have assessed the coupled carbon and water balance in perennial polyculture agroecosystems that ...

This review critically compares the electrochemical performance of carbon‐based and alloy‐type anodes for sodium‐ion batteries, with an emphasis on strategies that enhance practical deployment. It highlights how synergistic optimization of microstructure, electrolyte, and presodiation improves hard carbon, while nanostructuring and interfacial ...

Henry Trimen: Under‐appreciated pioneer in the typification of Linnaean plant names?
Abstract In 1887, Henry Trimen published a paper summarising the contents of the Hermann Herbarium, in what is now the Natural History Museum, London (BM), in terms of the plant names published by Linnaeus. Trimen referred to the Hermann specimens as types of Linnaeus's names.

The effectiveness of biodiversity offsetting for wild pollinator conservation
We show that even small differences in the composition of floral resources can result in significantly higher wild pollinator abundances and species richness in offset grasslands. Since our reference grasslands represent the target habitat, our findings suggest that biodiversity offsetting of semi‐natural grassland shows promise for achieving No Net ...

Pollinator conservation in calcareous grasslands should prioritize enhancing local patch quality while promoting landscape heterogeneity, including woody SNH. To improve forage quality, our analytical approach supports targeted grassland management in selecting key forage plants, promoting complementary and diverse floral assemblages that support ...

Prior to inoculation of soybeans, South African soils contain no Bradyhizobia that nodulate and fix nitrogen in soybeans. Soybean cultivation with prolonged inoculation resulted in the establishment and dominance of Bradyrhizobia in three soybean farms in South Africa as revealed by a microbial community study using shotgun metagenomics. ABSTRACT Prior

Abstract Molecular identification of insect food webs can accurately reveal complex trophic interactions and serve as a foundation for understanding ecosystem functioning and advancing biodiversity conservation. This process typically involves DNA library construction, high‐throughput sequencing and subsequent steps, including data assembly, annotation,

This study illustrates that omega‐3 PUFAs with their receptor FFAR4 alleviate tubular senescence and fibrosis in aged and fibrotic kidneys. Furthermore, we indicate that tubular FFAR4 improves renal senescence via 15d‐PGJ2‐PPARγ‐Klotho signaling, and suppresses kidney fibrosis by senescent tubular cell‐driven fibroblast activation.
