Underground Signals: The Ecological Power of Root Volatiles

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Root volatiles mediate rhizosphere chemical communication, shaping interactions among plants, microbes, herbivores, and natural enemies. Their production, transport, and perception underpin ecological adaptation, multitrophic interactions, and plant resilience, offering opportunities for sustainable crop protection, resilient agroecosystems, and ...

Natural Variation in ZmASB1 Links Tryptophan Metabolism to Root Growth and Drought Tolerance in Maize

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Natural variation in the maize ZmASB1 promoter regulates tryptophan accumulation, root development, and drought tolerance through a tryptophan–auxin pathway. A 5‐bp InDel alters ZmDOF17 binding and promoter activity, and the favorable allele is enriched during breeding. These findings reveal a cis‐regulatory mechanism linking amino acid metabolism with

Study of Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity Variations in Different Aggregate Size Distributions in an Agricultural Soil

open access: yesعلوم آب و خاک, 2019
Saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ks) is one of the most important soil physical characteristics that plays a major role in the soil hydrological behaviour. It is mainly affected by the soil structure characteristics.

Nanoscale Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry for Quantifying Membrane Fouling: Fouling Layer Structure and Chemical Interaction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry (Nano SIMS) is established as a powerful analytical tool to visualize and quantify the membrane fouling layers. ABSTRACT Membrane technology has garnered considerable attention for applications in wastewater treatment and resource recovery. Nevertheless, membrane fouling remains a major barrier, yet the lack of

Divergent responses of aggregate breakdown by slaking to nitrogen forms in solution for contrasting soil types

open access: yesGeoderma
Aggregate stability strongly affects many soil processes and is critical to maintain sustainable agriculture. Aggregate breakdown is controlled by the interaction between soil intrinsic properties and solution characteristics.
