A nationwide student survey on biochemistry learning resources in Italy

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We conducted a survey among Italian university students to investigate their preferred study materials for biochemistry. We then analyzed the collected data to identify these materials. This information may be valuable to the Biochemistry educational community. The graphical abstract was created with Claude (Opus 5.5; Anthropic, 2026).

The level of N₂-fixation of different genotypes of winter pea in comparison to spring pea in pure and mixed stands

Journal für Kulturpflanzen, 2011
In contrast to the common spring pea (SP), little is known about the capacity of winter peas (WP) for sym­biotic N2 fixation in pure and mixed stands. Therefore, seven WP genotypes and one semi-leafless SP in pure stands and two mixtures with cereals (25%

Weed suppression and crop yield performance in sole and intercrops of common vetch and spring wheat depending on seed density ratio in organic farming

Journal für Kulturpflanzen, 2020
Common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) can be an alternative grain legume to faba beans, peas, lupins and soy beans due to its high grain protein content. As it is uncommon for grain use, cropping systems need to be developed. Weed infestation is a major problem

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.
