Nursery pot size, not planting density, affects vegetation performance in a restored semi‐arid wetland

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coastal wetland restoration often involves planting nursery‐grown potted plants to accelerate vegetation development, particularly when stressful conditions or insufficient source material inhibit natural recruitment. Under these conditions, planting more densely or larger, more developed plants may increase vegetation survival ...

Identification of DREB gene family in foxtail millet (Setaria italica) and analysis of its expression pattern in response to abiotic stress

Frontiers in Plant Science
Dehydration response element binding proteins (DREBs) play a vital role in transcriptional regulators in enhancing plant tolerance to abiotic stress. To investigate the biological functions of the DREB gene family (SiDREBs) in foxtail millet (Setaria ...

Advances in Floating Solar Desalination Systems

Water and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
This review critically classifies floating solar desalination systems into five main categories and compares their thermal performance, productivity and technological limitations. Membrane‐based and multieffect systems showed the highest efficiencies, while traditional designs remain limited by heat losses and scaling.

Impact of Methylparaben on Cumulus Cell DNA Integrity and Porcine Oocyte Developmental Competence In Vitro

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 9, Page 2985-2996, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Parabens (PBs) are compounds widely used as preservatives in personal care products, food, and pharmaceuticals. Methylparaben (MePB) is the most used by different industries due to its chemical properties and low cost. The high daily human exposure to these compounds has raised concerns about their potential effects on health, particularly on ...

Optimization of antibody binding by adjusting thermodynamic stability during the maturation of antibody affinities

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Somatic mutations and antibody clone selection occur in B‐cell hyper‐evolution over extremely brief periods of time. Herein, we developed a technique for antibody screening by immunizing alpacas with antigens and observing antibody sequence transitions over time, a method we named Tracking the Evolution of Antibodies over time.

Commercially Exploited Seaweed Species in Africa: Occurrences, Chemical Composition, Current Value Chain and Opportunities for Value Addition

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 4, September 2026.
Commercially exploited seaweed species in Africa, their biochemical composition, current uses, and value chain are reviewed. Potential value‐addition of seaweed is suggested regionally in Africa amongst countries producing similar seaweed species. ABSTRACT Africa has a wide range of coastal environments that support a diverse array of seaweed species ...

A Bibliometric‐Based Review of Biochar for Salt‐Affected Soil Restoration: Mapping Research Trends and Future Directions

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 8963-8985, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT In recent years, biochar has been studied for its range of applications. Recognized by the IPCC as a key Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) strategy, it also stands out as an important tool for reclaiming degraded lands, including vast global areas affected by salinity, such as those in China, India, and Australia.

Microbiological Mechanisms of Sand‐Mixed Soil Improvement in Continuously Cropped Soil

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 9390-9405, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Sand‐mix soil is a widely adopted method for soil improvement in agricultural production. However, beyond the evident enhancement of physical structure, the mechanisms by which sand‐mix soil promotes crop root growth by influencing soil physicochemical properties and microbial communities remain insufficiently understood.
