Zinc (Zn) has long been considered as an indispensable micronutrient for crop production and its deficiency is now well established in Pakistani soils. We conducted a field study to evaluate the Zn use relations of five advanced wheat lines, viz. IV-1, IV-2, NARC-2, PAK-13, V-119 under Zn-deficient soil conditions affected by application 5.0 kg ha⁻¹. The involved three complete blocks with properly randomized treatments. Application ha-1 significantly improved traits such shoot root fresh weight (61% 68%), dry (50% 39%), length (77% 74%), concentration (72% 75%), accumulation (35% 27%), Zn-use efficiency (69%). Among NARC-2 demonstrated efficient-responsive characteristics both sufficient conditions. was highly responsive biomass (both root) efficiency, while excelled length, concentration, efficiency. IV-3 most efficient line conditions, showing superior tolerance high Zn-efficiency ratio, but less Zn. PAK-13 Zn, particularly effective stress. Our findings conclude that zinc nutrition dynamics lines at early growth stage. were found be promising emerging line. Further research recommended validate these findings.

Context Arsenic (As) is a noxious metalloid for plants, animals and humans. Elevated levels of As in soils may cause it to accumulate above-permissible wheat grains, posing threat human health. Moreover, vulnerable population groups developing countries have inadequate dietary zinc (Zn) linked cereal-based diets. Aims The present study evaluated the effect soil Zn application on accumulation grains two Zn-biofortified (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars (Akbar-2019 Zincol-2016). Methods Wheat plants were grown an alkaline calcareous spiked with three (0, 5 25 mg kg−1). Before sowing, rates (0 8 kg−1) also applied soil. Key results spiking decreased plant dry matter yield, chlorophyll pigments, phosphorus (P) accumulation, increased wheat. By contrast, enhanced crop yield P simultaneous decrease both cultivars. Compared control, grain concentration by 26%, 30% 32% 0, kg−1, respectively. Conclusions Applying As-spiked mitigates harmful effects increasing decreasing concentrations wheat, resulting improved quality consumption. Implications Zinc should be recommended addressing health implications associated As-contaminated crops deficiency.

This review was conducted to provide basic knowledge in developing new culture media for cultured meat production by compiling research on how the main components affect cell proliferation and muscle differentiation. The culturing process can be divided into five processes: acquisition, proliferation, differentiation, myotube formation, maturation. To date, cultural has shown that amino acids, fatty carbohydrates mainly act as energy nutrient sources production, minerals play roles regulators of production. Vitamins not only protect cells from oxidative stress but also promote growth regulate growth-related genes. Additionally, cytokines a role regulating genes related regeneration, hormones, such factors, insulin, thyroid benefit regulation.

Abstract The common bean, Phaseolus vulgaris L., is an important legume grown in all parts of Nepal to supply dietary protein for humans and livestock. They are rich a variety bioactive compounds thus possess health‐promoting effects the prevention chronic diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular obesity, diabetes. present study examined nutritional proximate composition screened beans high‐altitude regions Nepal. analysis 18 indicated moisture (6.48%–8.83%), crude (17.39%–23.54%), carbohydrate (58.74%–66.37%), fat (0.78%–1.58%), fiber (3.36%–4.75%), total ash (3.33%–4.69%), energy (340.24–350.16 kcal/100 g). results showed that were also good sources nutritionally minerals, copper (2.72–8.77 mg/kg), calcium (843.86–2763.62 iron (38.93–73.69 magnesium (1540.63–2083.52 sodium (205.91–695.81 potassium (13,560.21–16,957.05 zinc (19.80–31.00 mg/kg) on dry weight basis.

People from various socioeconomic backgrounds use and consume a vast variety of condiments on regular basis. Therefore, could be used as dietary transporters for micronutrients to counteract deficits in micronutrients, which is problem many nations, including Nigeria. Vegetables are vital component balanced diet good source minerals, antioxidants, bioactive compounds, among other nutrients. Ocimum gratissimum, or scent leaf it affectionately known Nigeria, common vegetable that widely cultivated. This article reviewed O. gratissimum condiment vegetable, its unique flavor, ability preserve food, taste, scent, compliment foods, therapeutic benefits. The emphasized the compounds found have potential both prevent disease maintain health. It also brought fore acknowledged fact researchers vegetables possess medicinal properties contingent upon specific compounds. These thought exert an influence human physiology, hence inclusion recommended.
