Legume-based crop rotation sustain the soil biodiversity, fertility levels, productivity, and profitability: evidence from a long-term study under Indian subtropical conditions

Frontiers in Agronomy
Prolonged cultivation of the rice–wheat system in the Indo-Gangetic Plain (IGP) has led to soil degradation, groundwater depletion, and reduced input use efficiency, necessitating resilient and diversified cropping systems.

Implementation of the concept of sustainable intensification to a real farm – Was its development over 17 years a sustainable intensification?

International Journal of Agricultural Sustainability, 2020
‘Sustainable intensification’ (SI) in agriculture is the objective of several contributions. An important question concerns whether farms have already reached SI? To answer this question, an assessment approach is required.

Spatial Distribution of the Pepper Blight (Phytophthora capsici) Suppressive Microbiome in the Rhizosphere

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The properties of plant rhizosphere are dynamic and heterogeneous, serving as different habitat filters for or against certain microorganisms. Herein, we studied the spatial distribution of bacterial communities in the rhizosphere of pepper plants ...

Nuclear pore links Fob1‐dependent rDNA damage relocation to lifespan control

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Damaged rDNA accumulates at a specific perinuclear interface that couples nucleolar escape with nuclear envelope association. Nuclear pores at this site help inhibit Fob1‐induced rDNA instability. This spatial organization of damage handling supports a functional link between nuclear architecture, rDNA stability, and replicative lifespan in yeast.

Sudden anaerobization in Amphibacillus xylanus increases intracellular labile ferrous iron and inhibits cell growth

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Abruptly changing from aerobic to anaerobic conditions (sudden anaerobization) induced growth inhibition and a significant increase in intracellular labile ferrous iron in the aerotolerant anaerobe Amphibacillus xylanus. We found that free flavins mediate efficient electron transfer from NADH to ferric iron under anaerobic conditions, suggesting that ...
