The Contribution of Zn Uptake and Grain Zn Loading Intensity to Achieving Zn Biofortification Breeding Targets in Rice

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Increasing Zinc (Zn) concentrations in rice grains is targeted in Zn‐biofortification breeding but most rice varieties have grain Zn concentrations far below breeding targets. Aims High‐Zn donors have been identified and our aim is to investigate whether higher grain Zn concentrations in these donors were the result of superior Zn ...

Dissipation study of ten insecticides in apples under field conditions

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Apples are among the most widely cultivated fruits in temperate climate zone. Given the potential of pests and diseases to cause significant damage to fruit production, orchardists rely on using insecticides and fungicides in infested orchards to protect apple yields.

Harnessing deep learning for wheat variety classification: a convolutional neural network and transfer learning approach

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Computer vision and the use of image‐based solutions are gaining traction as non‐destructive food assessment methods because of the low costs of computational equipment. Research conducted on the development of wheat classification models has been based on limited data and a smaller number of classes compared to the availability of ...

Sixty Years of Sugarcane Monoculture Alters Carbon Preservation in Large Soil Macroaggregates in Tropical Soil

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Frequent and intensive tillage in conventional agriculture disrupts soil aggregates, engendering significant depletion of soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks. Long‐term studies are essential for assessing the impact of sustainable practices on aggregate dynamics and carbon sequestration in sugarcane monocropping in tropical ecosystems.

Biodegradable Polymers for Plant Nutrient Delivery and Recovery

Macromolecular Bioscience, EarlyView.
This review article discusses the use of biodegradable polymers to address several grand challenges in agriculture: to improve the delivery of nitrogen and phosphorous to crops, to optimize plant uptake, and to enhance the recovery of these nutrients from wastewater, to recycle them and reduce water pollution. Abstract The current use of fertilizers is

Mass spectrometry of dendrimers

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
Abstract Mass spectrometry (MS) has become an essential technique to characterize dendrimers as it proved efficient at tackling analytical challenges raised by their peculiar onion‐like structure. Owing to their chemical diversity, this review covers benefits of MS methods as a function of dendrimer classes, discussing advantages and limitations of ...
