Spatial monitoring technologies for coupling the soil plant water animal nexus

Scientific Reports, 2022
Systems-level studies aimed at determining how soil properties are linked to plant production and ultimately animal response spatially are lacking. This study aims to identify if grazing pressure is linked to soil properties, terrain attributes, and ...

Can soil health explain grain quality? A case study of a corn field in Texas

Agricultural & Environmental Letters, 2022
Studies show a strong relationship between soil health and crop yield, but those relating soil health and grain quality are limited. We studied the relationship between soil health and grain protein and oil content from a corn (Zea mays L.) field in ...

Simulating water dynamics related to pedogenesis across space and time: Implications for four-dimensional digital soil mapping

Geoderma
Digital soil mapping (DSM) relies on machine-learning and geostatistics to represent soil property observations across space. DSM techniques are powerful but often empirical, being limited to the quality and density of point samples.

Ultrasensitive Detection of Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus Infections Using Multivalent DNA Nanostructure‐Enabled Lateral Flow Assay

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A multivalent DNA nanostructure‐enabled lateral flow assay was developed for rapid, ultrasensitive detection of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) nucleocapsid protein. Designer net‐shaped DNA nanostructures (DNA‐Net) presenting PEDV‐specific aptamers achieved ~1000‐fold enhanced binding, enabling detection of viral copies with Ct ≤ 37.42 within 10
