Genome-wide association study and expression of candidate genes for Fe and Zn concentration in sorghum grains

Scientific Reports
Sorghum germplasm showed grain Fe and Zn genetic variability, but a few varieties were biofortified with these minerals. This work contributes to narrowing this gap.

Gene expression and yeast two-hybrid studies of transcription factors mediating drought stress response in root tissues of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Drought stress has been one of the serious constraints affecting chickpea productivity to a great extent. Genomic assisted breeding in chickpea has been effective in providing a yield advantage of up to 24 %, thus having a potential to accelerate ...

NUB1 Regulates Muscle Atrophy in Lung Cancer Cachexia via NF‐κB Signaling Pathway

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cancer‐associated cachexia (CAC) is a devastating multifactorial syndrome characterized by progressive skeletal muscle atrophy. Its mechanisms remain incompletely clarified, with limited effective therapeutic targets. NUB1, a negative regulator of ubiquitin‐like proteins mediating protein degradation, has not been fully elucidated in CAC ...

Pangenome-wide insights into eukaryotic translation initiation factors (eIF) genes uncover targets for sterility mosaic disease resistance engineering in pigeonpea

BMC Plant Biology
Sterility mosaic disease (SMD) poses a significant threat to pigeonpea production. Although resistant cultivars are widely used, the rapid evolution of viral pathogens often renders host resistance ineffective.

Improving Drought-Avoidance Root Traits in Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) -Current Status of Research at ICRISAT

Plant Production Science, 2008
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), an important food legume grown in the semi-arid tropical and Mediterranean regions, suffers substantial yield loss due to drought at the end of the growing season (terminal drought), as the crop is largely grown rainfed in ...

Glycerol‐Regulated Cytocompatible, Self‐Healing Gel Electrolyte Stabilizes Zinc Metal Anodes for Quasi‐Solid‐State Aqueous Batteries

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A glycerol‐regulated PVA/PEG self‐healing gel electrolyte reconstructs the hydrogen‐bonding and Zn2+ coordination environments, suppressing water‐related parasitic reactions and enabling regulated Zn nucleation and homogeneous deposition. The resulting quasi‐solid‐state electrolyte combines durable Zn‐metal reversibility, self‐healing functionality ...

Nickel‐Free Perovskite Solar Cells Enabled by Self‐Assembled Monolayers: A Pathway to Efficient and Recyclable Devices

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Replacing toxic NiOx with phenyl‐substituted phosphonic‐acid carbazole monolayers (Ph‐5PACz) yields inverted perovskite solar cells that are efficient and recyclable. The nickel‐free interface reaches 25.3% efficiency and enables closed‐loop ITO recovery with near‐98% performance retention, while life‐cycle and techno‐economic analyses confirm lower ...

Agronomic and Nutritional Perspectives on Vegetable Crops in Africa

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.
Vegetable production plays a key role in food security, nutrition, and livelihoods across Africa. Moreover, African indigenous vegetables emerge as underutilized yet highly valuable crops, rich in macro‐ and micronutrients, as well as bioactive compounds with an array of health benefits.
