Callus induction and regeneration of date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) cv. Zambli through somatic embryogenesis from four layers of young leaves explant

Menara Perkebunan
The Zambli variety of date palm shows potential for cultivation in tropical regions, as its fruits are edible during the Rutab stage. However, large-scale production of Zambli seedlings presents a significant challenge.

Self‐Sensing Artificial‐Muscle‐Empowered Humanlike Perception, Interaction, and Positioning

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
The proposed self‐sensorized artificial muscle (SSAM) can sense its length change as small as 0.01 mm via a seamlessly integrated multi‐segment induction coil. The SSAM provides accurate length information regardless of its loadings, driving pressure, or muscle design, adequate for robust data‐driven feedback control.

Comparative transcriptomic analysis of Metisa plana: downregulation of cry toxin receptors and detoxification genes in populations with reduced susceptibility to Bacillus thuringiensis biopesticide

Chemical and Biological Technologies in Agriculture
Metisa plana Walker (Lepidoptera: Psychidae) is a major defoliator in oil palm plantations. The continuous application of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) bioinsecticide has raised concerns about its declining efficacy.

Dimorphic enantiostyly and its function for pollination by carpenter bees in a pollen‐rewarding Caribbean bloodwort

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Flowers that present their anthers and stigma in close proximity can achieve precise animal‐mediated pollen transfer, but risk self‐pollination. One evolutionary solution is reciprocal herkogamy. Reciprocity of anther and style positions among different plants (i.e., a genetic dimorphism) is common in distylous plants, but very rare in

Characterization of an entomopathogenic fungi, Aspergillus sp. R55 as a biocontrol agent against invasive rugose spiraling whitefly infesting oil palm in India

Egyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control
Background Rugose spiraling whitefly (RSW), a native Central America species, was first reported in India during 2016. Since then, the observed rapid geographical distribution and consistent incidence over the years gave the insect, a key pest status on ...

Genotype and Nitrogen Source Influence Drought Stress Response in Oil Palm Seedlings

Agronomy
As a significant global source of vegetable oil, the oil palm’s ability to withstand abiotic stresses, particularly drought, is crucial for sustainable agriculture. This is especially significant in tropical regions, where water scarcity is becoming more

Brazil Nut Flour as a Functional Ingredient: Effects on Texture, Composition and Sensory Profile of Reduced‐Sugar Gluten‐Free Cookies

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
Graphical abstract of the characterization of Brazil nut flour (BNF) and the impact of its addition on the nutritional and sensory properties of gluten‐free and low‐sugar cookies. The results show that BNF contributed to an improved nutritional quality of the cookies and enhanced overall product acceptance.
