Improvement of Root System Architecture in Peach (Prunus persica) Seedlings by Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi, Related to Allocation of Glucose/Sucrose to Root

Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2011
Root system architecture (RSA) is used to describe the spatial configuration of a root system in the soil, which substantially determines the capacity of a plant to take up nutrients and water.

Evaluation of Soaking Effects on Physicochemical and Functional Properties of Pinto and Black Beans

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) are nutritionally valuable legumes that provide essential nutrients and polyphenolic compounds with strong antioxidant properties. Dry beans are typically subjected to soaking as a conventional pre‐cooking step to mitigate the hard‐to‐cook effect and reduce cooking time.

The Coloniality of Measurement and the Making of Smallness as Deficit

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 51, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT In global environmental governance, small island developing states (SIDS) are routinely described as vulnerable, fragile and capacity constrained. These characteristics are treated as natural consequences of smallness and are frequently interpreted as markers of deficit, despite the diversity, agency and resilience that characterise many SIDS.

Third‐Order Nonlinear Optical Response and Optical Limiting in Silver‐Cobalt Bimetallic Nanoparticles

Nanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 16, 26 August 2026.
Silver‐cobalt bimetallic nanoparticles with a surface Co3O4 layer combine plasmonic field enhancement with interfacial charge transfer to deliver strong reverse saturable absorption and low‐threshold optical limiting under both continuous‐wave and nanosecond excitation.

Backbone‐Length‐Optimized Inhibitors Deliver Long‐Retention Selectivity in Area‐Selective ALD of VO2

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 45, 13 August 2026.
Area‐selective VO2 ALD is found to depend critically on inhibitor backbone length, which governs physisorption, chemisorption stability, and packing efficiency in a coupled manner. An intermediate backbone‐length achieves the best long‐retention selectivity, establishing a chemically and geometrically grounded design principle for small‐molecule ...

Interacted Effect of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Polyamines on Root System Architecture of Citrus Seedlings

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2012
Either arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) or polyamines (PAs) may change root system architecture (RSA) of plants, whereas the interaction of AMF and PAs on RSA remains unclear.

Ag/Ag2S Nanoparticle‐Based In‐Materio Lightweight Cryptographic System for IoT Edge Security

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
This work presents a nanomaterial‐based in materio encryption method that directly transforms analog signals through nonlinear Ag/Ag2S nanoparticle networks. By exploiting the inherently nonuniform characteristics that arise from random arrangement of nanoparticles as a unique security key, the approach produces highly complex encrypted waveforms ...

A Major Root Architecture QTL Responding to Water Limitation in Durum Wheat

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
The optimal root system architecture (RSA) of a crop is context dependent and critical for efficient resource capture in the soil. Narrow root growth angle promoting deeper root growth is often associated with improved access to water and nutrients in ...

A Review of Overcurrent Protection in Smart Grids Under Cyber‐Physical Threats With a Cyber‐Physical Evaluation Framework

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 8, Page 3948-3973, August 2026.
By manipulating current and voltage measurements, an assailant can induce unwanted relay action while attempting to avoid detection. Detecting advanced cyber intrusions in power protection environments requires specialised data analysis and anomaly detection methods.

Curcumin Attenuates Decidual Stromal Cell Ferroptosis and Restores Impaired Decidualization in Recurrent Spontaneous Abortion by Targeting BRD4

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Curcumin attenuates decidual ferroptosis and restores decidualization by targeting BRD4 in RSA. ABSTRACT Recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) is a major reproductive health challenge with limited clinical options. Curcumin, a natural polyphenol widely consumed as a dietary supplement, has shown promise in improving pregnancy outcomes; however, its ...
