Combination of selenium and molybdenum mitigates chromium toxicity in Nicotiana tabacum L. by regulating soil C, N, and P cycling

Industrial Crops and Products
Chromium (Cr), a heavy metal, has significant toxic effects on plant growth and development. The exogenous application of selenium (Se) and molybdenum (Mo) has been widely demonstrated to alleviate its toxicity and enhance plant adaptability under heavy ...

Plant Virus Immunotherapy for HPV‐Associated Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV) nanoparticles are safe and potent cancer immunotherapy candidates with strong immunomodulatory activity. CPMV activates innate immunity, which in turn drives adaptive immune responses and promotes durable, systemic antitumor effects.

Preparation of an exogenous additive from Psoralea corylifolia fruit and its flavor-modifying effects on cigar tobacco leaves

Scientific Reports
Psoralea corylifolia fruit (PCF) is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine and food, but its potential applications as a flavor-modifying exogenous additive (EA) for cigar fermentation has rarely been reported. In this study, a new type of PCF-derived

Enabling the study of gene function in gymnosperms: Virus‐induced gene silencing in Ephedra tweedieana

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise As the sister clade to angiosperms, extant gymnosperms are crucial for reconstructing ancestral gene regulatory networks in seed plants. This highlights the need for model systems representing each of their distinct lineages. However, tools to quickly and effectively investigate gene function in gymnosperms are still limited due to the

Harnessing plant‐based platform for low‐cost cellulosic sugar recovery from bioenergy crops

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The price of pure cellulase enzyme for the recovery of fermentable cellulosic sugars is one of the major challenges that limit the commercialization of second‐generation biofuels and bio‐based products. This work shows a means to greatly reduce the cost of cellulases. The abundant capacity of plants to synthesize and hyperaccumulate transgenic

Do ESG Leaders Achieve Higher Firm Financial Performance? The Influence of Women Directors and Controversial Industries

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Given the growing pressure on companies to achieve high ESG performance while minimising ESG controversies, this study investigates how ESG performance and ESG controversies jointly affect firm financial performance (measured as ROA and ROE), considering the effect of the presence of women directors and of operating in controversial versus non‐
