Ammonium capture Kinetic, Capacity, and Prospect of Rice Husk Biochar produced by different pyrolysis conditions

Scientific Reports
This study explores the potential application of rice husk biochars, categorized by their pH (acidic, pH 5.98; neutral, pH 7.02; and alkali, pH 11.21) and particle sizes (micron-scale and sub-centimeter) in aquatic ecosystems for efficient removal of ...

Animal Teachers: Nonhuman Pedagogy and the Question of Deceit

Educational Theory, EarlyView.
Abstract Animals as “teachers” of human children and adults is a recurring theme in children's literature, in anthropological accounts of “feral children,” as well as in contemporary practices of animal‐assisted pedagogy, philosophical research, wildlife documentaries, and popular culture.

A robust biotechnology induces artificial genomic duplication via transient RNAi‐mediated suppression of OSD1 in rice

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Plant Polyploidization via Gene Interference, a robust technology for inducing polyploidy in various rice accessions, uses transient RNAi‐mediated suppression of OSD1 to induce genomic duplication. Two strategies were used to directly induce fertile autotetraploid plants in the first generation, thereby substantially shortening the breeding cycle ...

Increasing the Soil Resistance Value in the 20 kV Medium Voltage Distribution Network using the Soil Treatment method

Protek: Jurnal Ilmiah Teknik Elektro
This study aims to enhance soil resistivity in a 20 kV electrical distribution network using a mixture of rice husk ash and mangrove wood charcoal. Rice husk ash is an additive known to reduce grounding resistance due to its water-absorbing properties ...

Fixing Rice Stubble Burning for Delhi's Air: Technological Solutionism and Agrarian Governance in Haryana

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Every winter, Delhi's polluted air draws national attention to the burning of rice stubble in neighbouring states. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in Haryana in north India, this article shows how bureaucrats and scientists attempt to enact certainty around technological solutions to stubble burning even while privately acknowledging their ...

Effect of Two Therapeutic Renal Diets on Hormonal and Regulatory Pathways Affecting Calcium Homeostasis in Cats With Early‐Stage Chronic Kidney Disease

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a known risk factor for hypercalcemia in cats. Phosphate‐restricted diets have also been implicated in causing hypercalcemia, in part because phosphate restriction increases the Ca:P ratio. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of two different therapeutic renal foods on ionized (iCa ...

Successful use of insect‐based (Hermetia illucens) diet in dogs with food‐responsive enteropathy

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Objective Diet is an integral component of the management of chronic enteropathy in dogs. The role of insect‐based diets in this disease remains unknown. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of an insect‐based (Hermetia illucens) diet in dogs with presumed food‐responsive enteropathy.

Enriched rice husk biochar superior to commercial biochar in ameliorating ammonia loss from urea fertilizer and improving plant uptake

Heliyon
Adding value to agricultural leftovers and turning them into biochar is a viable way to replenish soil nutrients and boost crop productivity. To further validate the efficacy of enriched rice husk biochar, an incubation study and a pot experiment were ...

α‐1,3‐Glucan Is Required for Cell Wall Integrity and Full Virulence of Colletotrichum graminicola, but Not for Evasion of PAMP‐Triggered Immunity

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abbreviated Summary The role of the major fungal cell wall polymer α‐1,3‐glucan in plant infection is poorly understood. Deletion mutants of the maize anthracnose fungus Colletotrichum graminicola lacking all three α‐1,3‐glucan synthase genes differentiated severely distorted biotrophic hyphae in planta, and virulence was strongly reduced.
