Autonomous mowers’ navigation pattern plays a crucial role in turfgrass quality, influencing both esthetic and functional performance. However, despite extensive research on mowing efficiency, the effects of different navigation patterns on tur...

Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia Mill.) is a traditional and economically important crop in Bulgaria. The cultivated areas are primarily planted with seven Bulgarian varieties: ‘Hemus’, ‘Druzhba’, ‘Sevtopolis’, &ls...

The effectiveness of microbial inoculants in agriculture is often limited by their unstable colonization in dynamic soil environments. We investigated the impact of application timing and continuity of a four-member synthetic microbial community (Syn...

Climate change and soil degradation represent a threat to essential crops such as maize. In Mexico, this grain is of strategic importance, yet yields are often low. Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) can help mitigate this problem. The potential...

Ecological stoichiometry offers critical insights into nutrient dynamics and soil–plant interactions in agroecosystems. To explore the effects of long-term fertilization on soil–cotton C, N, P stoichiometry and stoichiometric homeostasis...

Weeds pose a ubiquitous challenge to researchers as a source of unintended variation on crop yield and other metrics in designed experiments, creating a need for practical and spatially comprehensive techniques for weed detection. To that end, imager...

Aquilegia (Ranunculaceae), a genus of perennial herbs characterized by elegant leaves and unique flowers, exhibits promising application prospects in Northeast China. Chalcone synthase participates in the first enzymatic reaction of the anthocyanin b...

Seed dormancy and germination traits of Campanulaceae species in relation to ecological factors remains unclear. Hence, we clarified the seed germination characteristics of five Campanulaceae species (Adenophora triphylla (Thunb.) A.DC., Asyneuma jap...

Rhodotus palmatus is commercially marketed as ‘fruity-scented mushroom’, a novel cultivar first brought into commercial cultivation in China at the end of 2023. It is characterized by a distinct pinkish pigmentation, a pileus with a disti...

The AP2/ERF (APETALA2/ethylene-responsive factor) superfamily is one of the largest transcription factor families in plants and is not only vital for plant growth and development but also participates in responding to various abiotic stresses. Howeve...
