Development of a Zebrafish Embryo‐Based Test System for Thyroid Hormone System Disruption: 3Rs in Ecotoxicological Research

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract There is increasing concern regarding pollutants disrupting the vertebrate thyroid hormone (TH) system, which is crucial for development. Thus, identification of TH system–disrupting chemicals (THSDCs) is an important requirement in the Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development (OECD) testing framework.

Poultry-Based Amendments and Cover Crop Residues Enhance Nutrient Cycling and Soil Health in Greenhouse Conditions

open access: yesHorticulturae
Organic producers have few certified organic options to meet crop nitrogen (N) demand. Poultry-based amendments, including manures and processed fertilizers from livestock waste (e.g., feather meal), are commonly used in these systems, but synchronizing ...

Tracing sources of cadmium in agricultural soils: a stable isotope approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Cadmium (Cd) is a biotoxic heavy metal, which is accumulated by plants and animals and thereby enters the human food chain (Gray et al. 2003). The application of phosphate fertilisers has also resulted in the long-term accumulation of Cd in agricultural ...

Impacts of Organic Soil Amendments of Diverse Origins on Soil Properties, Nutrient Status, and Physiological Responses of Young Chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.) Trees

open access: yesAgriculture
Three organic soil amendments of different origins (chicken manure, fungal biomass obtained through biological fermentation, and a leonardite-based humic acid product) were applied to young chestnut trees, alongside mineral fertilizer, which when applied

Exploring variations in potential carbon and nitrogen mineralization in managed grasslands among the diversity of soils in North Carolina

open access: yesGrassland Research, EarlyView.
Under steady–state conditions, potential nitrogen mineralization in soil under grasslands is closely tied to potential carbon mineralization. This study provides supporting evidence that field–specific nitrogen fertilizer recommendations could be indicated by using a simple and rapid analysis of soil–test biological activity.
