Electronic Nanomaterials for Plants: A Review on Current Advances and Future Prospects

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Global food security faces mounting challenges from climate change and rapid population growth. This review highlights the pivotal role of electronic nanomaterials–including metals, metal oxides, and carbon‐based structures–in enhancing plant photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, and stress resilience. Furthermore, it explores how emerging platforms such as

Facet Engineering and Fe─N─Co Bridged Heterojunction Enable Fe3O4@C@ZIF67 as High‐Performance Photocatalyst for Ammonia Synthesis

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
This study introduces an Fe3O4@C@ZIF67 core‐shell photocatalyst featuring an Fe─N─Co Z‐scheme heterojunction. The design incorporates carbon‐coated Fe3O4 within ZIF67‐D, exposing (211) crystalline facets to enhance nitrogen adsorption. Abstract Ammonia synthesis is vital for global fertilizer production but traditionally relies on the energy‐intensive ...

Enhancement of developmental defects in the boron‐deficient maize mutant tassel‐less1 by reduced auxin levels

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Background Plant responses to deficiencies of the micronutrient boron are diverse and go beyond the well‐characterized function of boron in cell wall crosslinking. To explain these phenotypic discrepancies, hypotheses about interactions of boron with various phytohormones have been proposed, particularly auxin.

Drivers of Farmers' Contract Compliance Behavior: Evidence From a Case Study of Dangote Tomato Processing Plant in Northern Nigeria

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Contract farming is a viable strategy agribusinesses rely on to strengthen coordination across actors in the value chain. However, low contract compliance remains a significant setback to agribusinesses' contract performance in low‐ and middle‐income country context.
