Superior Labial Artery Mucosal Flap (SLAM) for Reconstruction of Major Lower Lip Mucosal Defects
ABSTRACT Background The superior labial artery mucosal (SLAM) flap is a versatile, pedicled axial flap ideally suited for mucosal lining in lower lip reconstruction. Methods This article details the surgical anatomy and technique of the SLAM flap, highlighting its role as a standalone liner or mucosal adjunct to microvascular free tissue transfer in ...

From ecological principles to precision engineering of plant microbiomes for sustainable agriculture. The plant holobiont integrates diverse microbial niches (including rhizosphere, endosphere, phyllosphere, seed, and aerial‐root mucilagesphere), host genetics (namely M genes), and host metabolites. Furthermore, molecular dialogues, including rhizobial

ABSTRACT Long‐term economic analyses of variable rate irrigation (VRI) strategies were performed compared with uniform irrigation management (UIM) in a reference production field using the AquaCrop model. Five strategies to trigger irrigation were as follows: (Field Capacity‐VRI, Driest Soil Trigger‐VRI, Water Mining‐VRI, Conventional Uniform ...

ABSTRACT Crop modelling is essential for agricultural water management but often relies on simplified water balance routines that limit representation of soil moisture dynamics. To address this limitation, we developed a coupled model that integrates the 1‐D Richards equation, solved using a finite difference method into the FAO AquaCrop.

ABSTRACT The water–energy–food (WEF) nexus approach highlights the interdependence of water, energy and food resources, all of which play central roles in agriculture, especially irrigation. A WEF nexus lens was applied to Mpumalanga's Crocodile River catchment, a vital irrigation area that significantly contributes to South Africa's staple food ...
