Seed priming mitigates the effects of saline-alkali stress in soybean seedlings [PDF]
ABSTRACT Soda saline-alkali soil has double adverse effects on growth, morphogenesis and yield of the crops by creating a salinity stress and a high pH value in the rhizosphere surroundings of the plant. Seed priming can be an effective approach to enhance stress adaptation in seedlings growing in salinity stressed conditions.

Biomechanical and biochemical properties of the thoracic aorta in warmblood horses, Friesian horses, and Friesians with aortic rupture [PDF]
Background: Thoracic aortic rupture and aortopulmonary fistulation are rare conditions in horses. It mainly affects Friesian horses. Intrinsic differences in biomechanical properties of the aortic wall might predispose this breed.

Combination of Graphene Oxide and Rhizobium Improved Soybean Tolerance in Saline-Alkali Stress
Soybean (Glycine max L.) is the most important crop plant in the world. Soil saline-alkali seriously inhibits soybean yield and quality. This study aims to investigate the impact of graphene oxide (GO) and Rhizobium (Rh) on the expression of soybean-related genes as well as the growth and yield under saline-alkali stress.
