Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a staple food and a key industrial crop across tropical regions, but traditional phenotyping for critical quality traits like dry matter content (DMC) and starch content (StC) is a laborious and low-throughput pr...
BACKGROUND: Heavy metal contamination in agricultural soils disrupts plant growth and metabolism. Although zinc (Zn) is a necessary element, concentrations above 50 ppm can be toxic to plants. Grafting has emerged as a potential strategy to mitigate ...
Graft incompatibility is a key factor in the development of dwarf and semi dwarf rootstocks for sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) to improve yield, fruit quality, precocity, and labor efficiency. This study evaluated the graft incompatibility of eight g...
Plants release a substantial fraction of their photosynthesized carbon into the rhizosphere as root exudates that drive microbiome assembly. Deciphering how plants modulate the composition and activities of rhizosphere microbiota through root exudate...
Coastal wetlands are crucial in shoreline stabilization, carbon sequestration, and storm protection. Yet, due to limitations in traditional destructive sampling techniques, the belowground biomass (live root mass) and necromass (dead and decaying roo...
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Various parts of Prunus persica (L.) Batsch (peach) exhibit medicinal properties and are utilized in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for therapeutic purposes. Notably, the root of P. persica, referred to as "taoshug...
This research paper emphasizes the growing importance of Allium Cepa (Onions)-a medicinal plant, as a safe and effective alternative to conventional medicinal therapies for both humans and livestock. The increasing concerns over the high costs and si...
The approaches used to determine the medicinal properties of the plants are often destructive, labor-intensive, time-consuming, and expensive, making it impossible to analyze their quality analysis online. Performance of hyperspectral imaging (HSI) i...
