Advanced Science, EarlyView.Drought is a major cause of crop losses across agricultural regions. Rhizosheath formation enhances plant resistance to drought. Polyploids may tolerate stress more effectively through increased interactions with bacteria. However, the contributions of tetraploid rice associated microbiota to rhizosheath formation under soil drying remain unclear ...

Long Term High‐Salt Diet Induces Cognitive Impairments via Down‐Regulating SHANK1
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The study identifies a novel mechanistic link between long‐term HS diet and cognitive impairment, wherein PKA/CREB axis inactivation leads to SHANK1 reduction, synaptic damage, and cognitive deficits. Abstract High‐salt (HS) diet is an established risk factor for cognitive impairment, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

Nature, 1899 THIS essay by Sir William Crookes, as will be remembered, called forth much criticism when it was delivered as the Presidential Address at the Bristol meeting of the British Association. Now that it is reprinted with additions, it may demand a more careful review than was possible at the time. The general idea, it may be said, is by no means novel, and

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The study reveals that PAXIP1‐associated glutamate‐rich protein 1 (PAGR1), a glucose‐responsive regulator in skeletal muscle, modulates systemic glucose homeostasis and hepatic metabolism. Muscle‐specific PAGR1 deletion enhances insulin signaling, promotes glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) translocation, and protects against high‐fat‐diet‐induced insulin ...

The influence of long-term inputs of catch crops and cereal straw on yield, protein composition and technological quality of a spring and a winter wheat [PDF]
, 2011 Under conditions of restricted nitrogen (N) input such as in organic farming systems, crop N uptake must rely on N mineralised from applied animal manure, crop residues and native soil organic matter.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.TaPPR13, a PPR protein family gene in wheat is activated by TaBZR2 to enhance drought stress tolerance and photosynthetic capacity. It achieves this by interacting with TaAOR1 and TaSIG5 to improve antioxidant defense and regulate chloroplast gene expression. Abstract The wheat (Triticum aestivum) brassinazole‐resistant 2 (TaBZR2) gene is identified as
