Wheat and rice produce nutritious grains that provide 32% of the protein in human diet globally. Here, we examine how genetic modifications to improve assimilation inorganic nitrogen forms ammonium nitrate into influence grain yield these crops. Successful breeding for modified metabolism has focused on genes coordinate carbon metabolism, including those regulate tillering, heading date, assimilation. Gaps our current understanding include (1) species differences among candidate pathways, (2) extent which relative abundance across natural soil environments shape crop responses, (3) variation architecture nitrogen-mediated improvement. Despite extensive research genetics since rise synthetic fertilizers, only a few projects targeting pathways have resulted development cultivars with higher yields. To continue improving quality, strategies need focus concurrently both consider manipulating smaller effects or underlie regulatory networks as well directly associated metabolism.

Bovine milk has been an indispensable part of the human diet for ages. But consumption plant-based beverages gained significant attention in recent years due to increasing demand non-dairy and non-animal protein sources owing lactose intolerance, allergies, diverse lifestyles. Moreover, offer a source bioactive compounds having appreciable antioxidant activities. This review article provides comprehensive overview current scenario beverages, including their market trends, compounds, health benefits. aims detail available types nutritional properties. key challenges associated with processing physical stability, off-flavour, antinutrient content nutrition imbalance are discussed. The concludes by emphasizing need further research development overcome meet growing sustainable healthy food options.

Abstract Nanoplastics are emerging pollutants of global concern. Agricultural soil is becoming a primary sink for nanoplastics generated from plastic debris. The uptake and accumulation by crops contaminate the food chain pose unexpected risks to human health. However, whether can enter grains their impact on crop grown in contaminated still unknown. Here, translocation polystyrene (PS‐NPs) crops, including peanut ( Arachis hypogaea L.) rice Oryza sativa investigated. It demonstrated PS‐NPs root at maturation stage. treatment with (250 mg kg −1 ) increases empty‐shell numbers grain 35.45%, thereby decreasing seed‐setting rate 3.02%, also decreases average seed weight peanuts 3.45%. Moreover, exerted adverse effects nutritional quality, such as content mineral elements, amino acids, unsaturated fatty acids. To knowledge, this first report presence plants containing nanoplastics, results highlight yield quality grains.

Heavy metal stress, including lead, adversely affects the growth and yield of several economically important crops, leading to food challenges significant economic losses. Ameliorating plant responses various environmental stresses is one promising areas research for sustainable agriculture. In this study, we evaluated effect aspartic acid-functionalized copper nanoparticles on photosynthetic efficiency antioxidation system maize plants under Pb toxicity. The ion reduction method was employed synthesis CuNPs, using ascorbic acid as reducing agent surface functionalizing agent. Isolated experiments laboratory field conditions were performed a randomized complete block design (RCBD). Seeds primed in water, 1.0, 5.0, 10 µg/mL Asp-CuNPs sown 0, 500, 1000 mg/L stress conditions, while seeds along with foliar-applied Asp-CuNP grown applied obtained data statistically analyzed TWANOVA. experiment shows that act both regulator (PGR) inhibitor (PGI), depending upon their concentration, whereby PGR at concentration 1 ≤ X ≤10 µg/mL. confirms seed priming foliar spraying activate embryos enhance dose-dependent manner. addition, (10 µg/mL) significantly increase chlorophyll content 0.87 mg/g from 0.53 (untreated) when exposed toxicity mg/kg soil. It noteworthy induce resilience (1000 soil) by its root absorption 3.68 (0 Asp-CuNPs) 1.72 application Asp-CuNPs. Additionally, histochemical analyses NBT hydrogen peroxide revealed ROS accretion treated declined because augmentation antioxidant enzyme (POD, SOD, APOX, etc.) activities Our findings suggest amino regulate defensive mechanisms related lead tolerance, which approach induction resistivity heavy stress.

Agriculture plays a major role on society, especially in developing countries which rely commodity exportation markets. To maintain high crop productivity, the use of agrochemicals was once employed as main strategy, turn affected soil, water, and human health. In order to aid this issue, identifying some alternatives, such implementation biofertilizers inoculants bioinputs modern agriculture, are imperative improve ecosystem quality. Among these bioinputs, few bioproducts have shown good performances, phytohormones (e.g., auxins giberellins), biosurfactants, other enzymes; thus, it is extremely important assure quality feasibility their production biorefinery scenarios. These can be synthesized through fermentation processes utilizing plant biomasses agricultural byproducts carbon sources. sense, increase tecno-economical availability processes, solid-state (SSF) has great potential due its ease operation cost-attractiveness. Therefore, study aims describe substrates used SSF systems for bioinputs; associated hurdles, parameters, conditions selection; most suitable microorganisms; underlying mechanisms molecules soil dynamics. Within context, expected contribute development new biorefineries mitigation environmental impacts.

Angelica sinensis is one of the most popular traditional Chinese medicines (TCM) and has been extensively used to treat various diseases. Hundreds endogenous ingredients have isolated identified from this herb, but their spatial distribution within plant root largely unknown. In study, we tried investigate map within-tissue metabolites in roots. After optimization experiment conditions, 1,5-diaminonaphthalene (1,5-DAN) was chosen as matrix sprayed on surface sections. Then matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) employed perform situ detection obtain detail information The distributions a wide range including organic acids, amino oligosaccharides, phospholipids were characterized visualized Majority these located phloem xylem, while ferulic acid mainly present cork layer. results revealed dramatic metabolic heterogeneity among different regions roots distinct patterns metabolites. Additionally, pathways involved biosynthesis choline also successfully localized visualized. This study comprehensively roots, which would prompt understanding its chemical separation, biosynthesis, pharmacological activities.
