Boron deficiency responses in maize (Zea mays L.) roots

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Background Boron (B) is an essential micronutrient for plants. Dicot plants respond to insufficient B supply by altering root architecture and root hair growth. How root systems of rather low‐B demanding monocot species such as maize (Zea mays L.) respond to B deficiency in terra has not been experimentally resolved, yet.

Optimization of a reactor for biostimulant production with emphasis on the economic aspects of hydrolysis

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Biostimulants are increasingly used in agriculture to promote plant growth, improve stress tolerance, and support sustainable farming practices. One common method of production is chemical hydrolysis of protein‐rich waste, such as tannery by‐products, offering an economical and eco‐friendly alternative to conventional raw materials.

Enhancement of the Plant‐Accessible Phosphate Fraction in Sewage Sludge Ashes by Na+ or K+ Addition Prior to Combustion

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
The addition of Na2CO3 or K2CO3 to sewage sludge prior to combustion leads to the production of ashes containing phosphate in the form of buchwaldite‐like phases (Ca(Na/K)PO4). Compared to conventional sewage sludge mono‐ashes, such Na‐ or K‐ashes show greatly increased P‐solubilities and proved to be potent P‐fertiliser materials in greenhouse ...

A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Psychological Therapies for Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) in Adolescents and Adults

open access: yesInternational Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The efficacy of psychological therapies for adolescents and adults with avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) has yet to be rigorously analyzed through systematic review or meta‐analysis. Method We identified articles from seven databases that presented psychological therapies for adolescents and adults with ARFID. First,

Trends in serving size, energy, and selected micronutrients for fast food restaurants in the United States, 1986-2016 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
An integral part of the average American diet, fast food accounted for 4% of total caloric intake in 1977-78; in 2007-10, fast food made up 11% of daily total caloric intake. The same can be said for obesity: approximately 36% of U.S. adults 20 years and

Bottlenecks‐Breaking in Zinc‐Iodine Batteries Toward Practical Implementation: A Review and Perspective

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Aqueous zinc–iodine batteries (Zn–I2Bs) offer promise for grid storage due to safety and cost advantages yet face critical bottlenecks: severe self‐discharge (polyiodide shuttling and HER), limited energy density, sluggish kinetics, and zinc anode instability.

Effect of cultivar and soil characteristics on nutritional value in organic and conventional wheat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Evidence of greater nutritional value in organic crops is currently a subject of intense debate. Our objectives in this study were to test for grain mineral concentration in 35 winter wheat cultivars in paired organic and conventional systems, and to ...
