By-products from the industrialization of oilseeds, particularly chia, can be sustainably used for the development of new functional products. In this work, wheat breads supplemented with up to 10 mg of chia expeller hyd...

Phosphorus (as phosphate, Pi) and iron (Fe) are critical nutrients in plants that are often poorly available in the soil and can be microbially affected. This work aimed to evaluate how plant-rhizobacteria interaction ch...

ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL5 (HY5), a member of the bZIP transcription factor family, inhibits hypocotyl growth and lateral root development, and promotes pigment accumulation in a light-dependent manner in Arabidopsis. Recent r...

Abstract Background Viral infections of tomato plants present a significant threat to tomato production and yield. Mixed viral infections are common in field-grown tomatoes and are known to exacerbate disease symptoms; h...

Natural medicine is currently gaining global acceptance among the developed and developing countries of the world due to its low toxicity, high efficacy and cost effectiveness. Developed countries are devising medicinal ...

Climate change poses a significant challenge to agriculture in the Mediterranean region, generating multiple food-related concerns. Wild edible plants (WEPs) may represent a partial solution as they provide a valuable ge...

The present study aimed to estimate the basal temperature and thermal sum for the following tropical forage plants: Brachiaria decumbens, cultivar Basilisk; Brachiaria brizantha, cultivar Marandu; Brachiaria brizantha, c...

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as critical regulators of plant development, physiology, and environmental stress adaptation. Despite exhibiting limited primary sequence conservation across the plant kingdom, ...

Abstract Background Optimization of biotechnological processes is traditionally limited by time-consuming trial-and-error approaches and the complexity of simultaneously optimizing multiple, often conflicting objectives....

Abstract This study reviewed the current data presented in the literature on developing meat analogs using plant-, insect-, and protein-derived materials and presents a conclusion on future perspectives. As a result of t...

BackgroundDry matter accumulation and distribution constitute the essential material basis for crop yield formation, directly impacting both yield and quality development. Nonetheless, the effects of planting density on ...

Rural women in developing countries often face significant barriers to employment, income generation, and access to productive resources. In Iran, medicinal plants (MPs) cultivation offers a sustainable pathway toward ec...

Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the composition, pH, titratable activity, microbial properties, and antioxidant effect of yogurt using ginseng extract powder (GEP), Lactobacillus plantarum NK181, and...

This study succeeded in developing hairy roots from the hypocotyledonous stems of chamomile Matricaria chamomilla L. plant seedlings by Ri plasmid isolated from Agrobacterium rhizogenes ATCC 15834 using direct injection ...

The increasing focus on renewable energy sources presents a viable alternative to non-renewable fossil fuels, with solar energy gaining particular attention. This research aims to identify and zone areas suitable for the...

The root-lesion nematode Pratylenchus vulnus parasitizes a wide range of hosts, including woody perennials such as walnut (Juglans regia) and grapevine (Vitis vinifera), significantly damaging roots and reducing yields. ...

ABSTRACT A systems biology approach was used to characterize Monotropa uniflora, a nonhotosynthetic, myco‐heterotrophic plant. In contrast to autotrophic plants, myco‐heterotrophic plants obtain carbon and other nutr...

Abstract Postbiotics are defined as probiotics inactivated by heat, ultraviolet radiation, sonication, and other physical or chemical stresses. Postbiotics are more stable than probiotics, and these properties are advant...

Abstract Inclusive education seeks to provide equitable learning opportunities to students with diverse needs. While the “plant kingdom” is a foundational concept in biology, studies show that students—including th...

Ovule morphology, megasporogenesis, and megagametogenesis processes were examined in Hydrocleys nymphoides, Alisma plantago-aquatica, and Sagittaria montevidensis. Each of these species belongs to a different clade withi...

Abstract The reduction of nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability in the endothelium induces endothelial dysfunction, contributing to the development of hypertension. Although Lactobacillus consumption decreases blood pressure...

Understanding how socioeconomic development modulates trait–environment linkages in the Anthropocene, particularly its mechanistic role in reshaping the relative importance of climate versus soil drivers, remains poorl...

Current study optimizes ultrasonication frequency (20, 30, 40 kHz) and time (10, 20, 30 min) for efficient valorization of soybean meal through nutritional enhancement and utilization in development of plant-based nu...

Plant reproduction is an intricate process important for the survival of all dominant autotrophs and critical in agriculture and stable food production as the basis of our diet. Angiosperms undergo extreme transformation...
