Effects of boundary plantation of eucalyptus on soil properties in an intensive agricultural area

open access: yesGeology, Ecology, and Landscapes
This study explored the effects of eucalyptus boundary plantation on the physicochemical properties of agricultural soils. Two strategies were applied : (Strategy 1) comparing soil properties of rice fields surrounded or not by eucalyptus trees, and ...

Potential Impacts of Green Manure Incorporation on Soil Fertility Enhancement and Rice Yield

open access: yes
Soil green manure amendment is a potential agricultural practice for soil fertility management and conservation of ecosystem. Common green manure plants such as sunn hemp, dhaincha and pulses have different nature and ability to contribute essential ...

Thermally Processable, Transparent, Mechanically Tunable and Robust Bioplastics From Wastepaper

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Unlike conventional inefficient or low‐value wastepaper recycling, a directional transformation strategy is employed to convert whole wastepaper into intact bioplastics with tunable mechanical properties in our work. These bioplastics can be processed into flexible bags or rigid containers and exhibit high transparency, water resistance, repairability,

Comprehensive Geochemical Evaluation and Influencing Factors of Topsoil Nutrients in a Farming Area of Dabie Mountain in Western Anhui, China

open access: yesYankuang ceshi
Western Anhui is an important precision agricultural area in China, characterized by diverse landforms and multiple soil types. To determine the spatial distribution of soil nutrient elements and their controlling factors, we analyzed 5 nutrient ...

Closed‐Loop Radiative Cooling Mulch Upcycled From Agricultural Residues for Efficient Soil Heat–Water Stress Mitigation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Conventional passive radiative cooling films rely on costly feedstocks and energy‐intensive fabrication, with poor end‐of‐life compatibility in agriculture. To address this challenge, a sustainable radiative cooling mulch (SRCM) is developed from waste maize leaves via spontaneous hydrogen‐bond self‐assembly.

The Spatiotemporal Genetic Architecture of Seed Vigor in Upland Cotton

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Leveraging the semi‐automated SeedRanger platform, we profiled the germination kinetics of 356 cotton accessions at a 30‐min interval. This high‐throughput phenomic approach delineated a temporal genetic network comprising 541 stage‐specific loci. Crucially, functional validation identified FLA2 as a pivotal, auxin‐modulated regulator that orchestrates

Soil mineralized nutrients changes and soil conservation benefit evaluation on 'green project grain' in ecologically fragile areas in the south of Yulin city, Loess Plateau

open access: yes, 2011
The 'green project grain' was initiated to reduce water and wind erosion on marginal and highly erodible sloping croplands by removing them from permanent production planting and soil-conserving vegetation such as grassland/forest.

Ergonomic Sponge Electrodes From Recycled PEDOT:PSS

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Emerging technologies in human–machine interfacing increasingly aim to develop solutions that naturally conform to the body's unique characteristics. Ergonomics and electrical performance in cutaneous sensing are crucial for accurate and reliable translation of biosignals.

The Economics of Manure Utilization: Model and Application

open access: yes
A model of manure utilization is developed and applied to four types of transportable manure. Model results highlight important response differences among manure types and generally illustrate the diseconomies of manure production. For example, as manure

The distribution and diversity of actinomycetes in soil fractions [PDF]

open access: yes
The results presented were concerned with the survival of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) (pll673) inoculated into soil microcosms, which were destructively fractionated so that the total propagules and spore counts could be determined in each of the ...
