An integrated aquaponic co‐culture system combining Nile tilapia and African catfish with eggplant was evaluated. Tilapia growth was consistent across treatments, while a slight reduction in catfish performance occurred with lower stocking density. Plant yield and nutrient profiles of fish showed no significant differences among treatments.

Physical methods for soil disinfestation in intensive agriculture: Old methods and new approaches [PDF]
Physical soil disinfestation is worldwide mainly applied in protected cropping systems or in small-scale intensive field crops. Continuous cropping of monocultures or different host plants for the same pest or pathogen often leads to heavily infested ...

Abstract Urban agriculture in densely populated areas is significantly constrained by space, leading to interest in vertical farming solutions like hydroponics. This study evaluates hydroponics’ viability in Cape Town's low‐income urban areas as a useful supplement to most research, which focuses on cities in the Global North.

Epidemiological Insights Into Water and Soil‐Mediated Transmission of Tomato Mottle Mosaic Virus
Water and growing substrate can serve as reservoirs for tomato mottle mosaic virus (ToMMV) inoculum. ToMMV can survive in water for up to 27 weeks. ToMMV infects bait plants through roots within 5–17 weeks, depending on the severity of root damage. A rapid, field‐deployable RPA test—requiring no RNA extraction—offers sensitivity comparable to RT‐qPCR ...

L‐Glutamine Modulates Root Architecture and Hormonal Balance in Arabidopsis
ABSTRACT Nitrogen (N) availability is a key determinant of plant growth and development. Here, we investigate how different N sources shape Arabidopsis thaliana root system architecture, metabolism and hormone dynamics. L‐glutamine (L‐GLN) significantly enhances root biomass compared to nitrate (KNO3) without compromising shoot growth.

Economic Viability of Aquaponics Across Global Climate Zones: A Meta‐Analytical Assessment
ABSTRACT Aquaponic systems are emerging as sustainable agricultural solutions that conserve water and recycle waste, enabling food cultivation in urban, rural, and arid regions. They are increasingly advocated across diverse contexts, yet adoption remains limited due to concerns about economic viability stemming from huge capital investment and low ...
