Optimizing germination and cultivation of edible halophytes using effluents from an IMTA system

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Halophytes offer nature‐based solutions to food insecurity and soil degradation, while their integration into integrated multi‐trophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems promotes circular economy practices. This study aimed to optimize the germination and cultivation of edible halophytic species, namely Limbarda crithmoides, Suaeda vera and

Effect of bio‐fertilization and edapho‐climatic conditions on chickpea nodulation, grain yields, and seed protein in a Mediterranean context: a meta‐analysis approach

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) serve as a protein‐rich staple, particularly in Mediterranean countries, where they are often grown in marginal and water‐stressed areas. This meta‐analysis synthesized evidence from peer‐reviewed publications across Mediterranean countries to assess how chickpea rhizobial inoculation influences chickpea ...

Effect of Anabaena sp. PCC7120 on the Tolerance of Rice (Oryza sativa L. cv Maratelli) Seedlings Against Lindane

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lindane (γ‐hexachlorocyclohexane, γ‐HCH) is a broad‐spectrum pesticide widely used since the 1950s until its inclusion in the Stockholm Convention list of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) in 2009, together with other HCH isomers. The high persistence and mismanagement of the toxic wastes generated during its synthesis have led to serious ...
