Anticipated more frequent extreme events due to changes in global climatic variability requires adaptation of crop species to multi-occurrence abiotic stresses hereby sustaining the food security. Priming, by pre-exposure of plants to an eliciting factor, enables plants to be more tolerant to later...

This study applied an adjoint data assimilation model capable of integrating wind fields to investigate a temperate storm surge event in the Bohai Sea region during October 18 to 21, 2024. Based on in situ water level measurements from five tide gauge stations, the model simulated the spatial distri...

The impacts of drought stress on crop yield and quality are substantial. Drought priming during the early growth stage of plants has been shown to improve tolerance to drought stress during the reproductive stage, although its effects on grain quality remain elusive. This study investigated the infl...

Drought is a major abiotic factor limiting agricultural crop production. The objective of this study was to investigate whether α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) confers drought tolerance to soybeans and if such tolerance is correlated with the early reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation in leaves...

Soil temperature regime (STR) is important for soil classification and land use. Generally, STR is delineated by estimating the mean annual soil temperature at a depth of 50 cm (MAST50) according to the Chinese Soil Taxonomy (CST). However, delineating the STR of China remains a challenge due to the...

Abstract Impaired autophagy is reported to promote osteoarthritis (OA). However, the mechanism by which autophagy in regulating meniscus degeneration and OA remains unclear. Here, unconvered aberrant energetic metabolism pattern in meniscus cells with OA is uncovered first, which results in lower ad...

Excessive nitrogen (N) fertilization with a high basal N ratio in wheat can result in lower N use efficiency (NUE) and has led to environmental problems in the Yangtze River Basin, China. However, wheat requires less N fertilizer at seedling growth stage, and its basal N fertilizer utilization effic...

The red coloring of pear fruits is mainly caused by anthocyanin accumulation. Red sport, represented by the green pear cultivar ‘Bartlett’ (BL) and the red-skinned derivative ‘Max Red Bartlett’ (MRB), is an ideal material for studying the molecular mechanism of anthocyanin accumulation in pear. Gene...

Frequent drought events severely restrict global crop productivity, especially those occurring in the reproductive stages. Moderate drought priming during the earlier growth stages is a promising strategy for allowing plants to resist recurrent severe drought stress. However, the underlying mechanis...

There are quite a number of bast fiber crops, and their uses are also very extensive. Bast fiber film is just one of their many applications. Bast fiber film can not only be used to cover the soil where crops are planted for heat and moisture preservation but also can be used for rice seedling culti...

<h4>Background</h4>The prevalence of cystic echinococcosis (CE), a widespread zoonotic disease, imposes a significant public health burden, especially in western China. However, under the background of global change, how to meet the challenge of the future risk of CE remains unclear. As...
