Biosynthesized Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs) Mitigate Arsenic Toxicity in Rice Seedlings

open access: yesToxics, 2020
Arsenic (As) contamination has emerged as a serious public health concern worldwide because of its accumulation and mobility through the food chain. Therefore, the current study was planned to check the effect of Bacillus subtilis-synthesized iron oxide ...

Predicting crop productivity and adapting the rice plant to changing climates: The importance of modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Climate change scenarios are predicting, by the end of the century, an increase in air temperature from 1.1 to 6.4 °C and in air [CO 2] from 600 to 1500 ppm, associated with more frequent submergence and drought events in the rice-growing regions ...

Microplastics from Wearable Bioelectronic Devices: Sources, Risks, and Sustainable Solutions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioelectronic devices (e.g., e‐skins) heavily rely on polymers that at the end of their life cycle will generate microplastics. For research, a holistic approach to viewing the full impact of such devices cannot be overlooked. The potential for devices as sources for microplastics is raised, with mitigation strategies surrounding polysaccharide and ...

Role of Trichoderma asperelloides and Trichoderma brevicompactum in improving drought tolerance in rice

open access: yesPlant Stress
Drought is considered as one of the major abiotic stresses affecting rice production under rainfed ecologies of Bangladesh hampering the country's self-sufficiency in rice production through reduced crop yield and quality.

Geobacter, Anaeromyxobacter and Anaerolineae populations are enriched on anodes of root exudate-driven microbial fuel cells in rice field soil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Plant-based sediment microbial fuel cells (PMFCs) couple the oxidation of root exudates in living rice plants to current production. We analysed the composition of the microbial community on anodes from PMFC with natural rice field soil as substratum for

A Bioresorbable Neural Interface for On‐Demand Thermal Pain Block

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioresorbable, implantable neural electronics provide dynamic, on‐demand thermal modulation of peripheral nerves for safe, drug‐free pain relief. A microscale thin‐film heater and temperature sensor embedded within biodegradable encapsulants enable precise temperature control via real‐time feedback.

The effect of alternative irrigation management on micronutrient availability and GHG emissions in paddy soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In a context of increasing food demands and a changing climate causing decreased water availability, alternative irrigation management (AIM) in paddy rice production is broadly being applied in Asia and other rice producing regions.

Abundance of Rice Root Aphid Among Selected Plant Species and on Plants Grown With Different Soil-Surface Media [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The rice root aphid, Rhopalosiphum rufiabdominalis (Sasaki), is distributed worldwide and colonizes a wide range of plants. However, relatively little is known about the suitability of different host plants, optimal rearing techniques, and the aphid’s ...
