Long-term drip fertigation under plastic mulch improves root-zone soil multifunctionality and cotton productivity in a saline-alkali cropland through salinity reduction and structural recovery

Industrial Crops and Products
Addressing challenges arising in saline alkali soils is very important in enhancing crop productivity particularly in arid and semi-arid lands. Drip fertigation, which is an integrated form of water and nutrient management, appears to be a promising ...

Avidin is evolutionarily conserved in fish but dispensable for development and resistance against Streptococcus agalactiae in zebrafish

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...

Effects of Drip Irrigation Models on Chemical Clogging under Saline Water Use in Hetao District, China

, 2018
Saline water is a major resource for agricultural irrigation in arid-semi arid regions, especially when it is combined with drip irrigation. However, highly saline water can easily cause clogging of the emitters in drip irrigation systems, adversely ...

Field-scale comparison of subsurface, open-ditch, and shaft drainage for soil salinity distribution and jujube productivity in an extremely arid salt-affected orchard

Agricultural Water Management
Soil salinization constrains orchard production in extremely arid regions, but the performance of drainage systems under relatively deep groundwater conditions remains insufficiently documented.

GelMA‐based 3D spheroids recapitulate transcriptomic and functional hallmarks of myeloid sarcoma

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
GelMA 5% hydrogels support the formation of myeloid leukemia spheroids that recapitulate MS‐specific features, including G1 arrest, apoptosis, and ECM‐driven transcriptomic reprogramming. The 3D model mimicked soft‐tissue‐like stiffness and oxygen conditions, and transcriptomic convergence with primary MS samples confirmed its utility as a preclinical ...

Structural and biochemical insights into the thermostable esterase Ta0887 from Thermoplasma acidophilum

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, a novel esterase from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum was biochemically and structurally characterized. Our results demonstrate that Ta0887 is a highly thermostable esterase that preferentially hydrolyzes p‐nitrophenyl hexanoate and possesses an α‐helical cap domain that likely contributes to its substrate ...

Use of saline water for irrigation

California Agriculture, 1984
Not available – first paragraph follows: Expansion of irrigated agriculture would contribute significantly toward meeting world food and fiber needs but, at the same time, would run headlong into competition for ever more limited water supplies.

Appropriate irrigation water salinity promotes cotton growth and yield under residual plastic film retention with drip irrigation in Xinjiang, China

Industrial Crops and Products
In arid Xinjiang, freshwater scarcity and residual plastic film accumulation threaten sustainable cotton production, making low-salinity irrigation optimization essential.

BCG vaccination potentiates oxidative phosphorylation in neonatal myeloid‐derived suppressor cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
BCG vaccination enhances oxidative phosphorylation in neonatal MDSCs, impairing their immunosuppressive function. It upregulates electron transport chain genes and mitochondrial activity, increasing ATP and oxygen consumption. Pharmacological OXPHOS inhibition partially restores suppressive capacity, confirming causality.
