Wheat wild relatives are untapped genetic resources from salinity and drought hit areas. This study presents differential comparative morphophysiological responses of these species and modern wheat cultivars under saline conditions. Salt resistant species produce more shoot and root biomass under saline conditions through salt exclusion and/or tissue ...

Abstract Background The proliferation of invasive aquatic macrophytes poses a significant ecological challenge globally, while many tropical regions face chronic shortages of affordable livestock feed. This study addresses this dual problem by assessing two invasive species, water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) and water lettuce (Pistia stratiotes ...

A Cross‐Sectional Survey Study Assessing the Quality of Life and Sleep in Spanish Psoriasis Patients
Psoriasis impacts quality of life (QOL) and sleep (QOS), yet dermatology assessments often do not evaluate sleep. The Short‐form health survey (SF‐36) and Pittsburg sleep quality index (PSQI) further investigated patients’ QOL and QOS. Particularly women, unemployed patients, and those that use sleep medications had worse QOS and QOL.

ABSTRACT The accelerating pace of urban expansion has profoundly reshaped urban–rural ecosystems, altering soil environments and impairing key ecological services. However, the combined impacts of urban expansion and atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition on soil multifunctionality—the capacity to sustain multiple ecological processes—remain poorly ...

ABSTRACT Soil microbial communities are pivotal to forest ecosystem functions, yet the mechanisms shaping their assembly across complex environments remain poorly understood. This study examined bacterial and fungal communities within topsoil and subsoil under subtropical coniferous forest (CF), mixed conifer–broadleaf forest (MF), and broadleaf forest

ABSTRACT Urban soils are increasingly affected by degradation, compaction, pollution, and water limitation, which can constrain plant performance and the functioning of urban green spaces. Rhizosphere microbiome transplantation (RMT), which transfers entire microbial communities from donor plants to target species, has emerged as a potential ...

ABSTRACT Land spatial structure conflicts (LSSC) weaken the actual benefits of ecosystem services by inducing trade‐offs among them, directly threatening regional ecosystem health (EH) and sustainable development. However, most studies have failed to incorporate ecosystem service benefits (ESB) into EH assessments and have overlooked their response to ...

ABSTRACT Urban expansion can substantially reshape ecosystem structure and functioning, especially in ecologically fragile Karst landscapes. Clarifying how ecosystem health (EH) responds to urbanization and identifying the factors that drive spatial variation in EH are important for regional sustainability.

ABSTRACT Studies have shown that omega‐3 fatty acids may protect against cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and related metabolic conditions. UK Biobank is a large cohort study that includes data on plasma omega‐3 fatty acids at study entry and health outcomes during the follow‐up period.
