Identifying potential zones for rainwater harvesting interventions for sustainable intensification in the semi-arid tropics

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Decentralized rainwater harvesting (RWH) is a promising approach to mitigate drought in the drylands. However, an insufficient understanding of its impact on hydrological processes has resulted in poor resource planning in this area. This study is a meta-

Comparative proteomics provide insights on the basis of resistance to Aspergillus flavus infection and aflatoxin production in peanut (Arachis hypogea L.)

open access: yesJournal of Plant Interactions, 2021
Aspergillus flavus is an opportunistic fungal pathogen that produces carcinogenic aflatoxin, a serious constraint for food safety and human health. In this study, to better understand the molecular mechanism/s of peanut resistance to A. flavus growth and
