This study investigated the effect of Guided Inquiry (GI) on pre-service teachers' academic achievement and retention in photosynthesis. A quasi-experimental research design was used with 65 pre-service teachers, where 3...

IntroductionUnder current climate change conditions, agronomic yield is compromised by limited water availability and sudden drought events throughout the plant cycle. Among the tools to overcome drought stress, benefici...

Abstract Background Optimizing the seeding rate is critical for wheat productivity. However, excessive densification often compromises individual photosynthetic efficiency to maximize canopy light interception, creating ...

This study investigated whether fertilization with urea or ammonium sulfate could mitigate the growth limitations of sorghum imposed by alkaline-saline-sodic (ASS) soils. We hypothesized that the application of these nit...

The selection of sustainable and effective covering systems is essential in greenhouses to ensure optimal insulation, microclimate control, energy management, and proper solar irradiance filtration for plant growth. This...

Abstract Background Microhabitat heterogeneity plays a crucial role in shaping plant water use strategies and ecophysiological processes in arid ecosystems, yet little is known about the coupled response of leaf water is...

Abstract Stomata of plant leaves open to enable CO2 entry for photosynthesis and close when CO2 in the leaf is elevated. CO2 is thought to promote stomatal closure in part by activating the SLAC1 anion channel at the gua...

Abstract Background Terpenes and phenolic compounds are multifunctional plant metabolites that contribute to defense, signaling, and ecological interactions, while supporting industrial applications. Here, we implemented...

Abstract Mycosporine‐like amino acids (MAAs) are natural sunscreens synthesized by a wide range of organisms. Although the induction of MAA production by ultraviolet radiation is well established, the signaling pathway...

Ulva lacinulata constitutes a critical yet often overlooked component of Mediterranean eutrophicated coasts. Investigating its physiological responses to weather events may enable environmental management and aquaculture...

Antimony (Sb), a toxic and potentially carcinogenic element, can readily accumulate in rice, posing challenges to both food safety and agricultural production. Building upon the previous study on the highly antimony-tole...

Abstract Background Cycas panzhihuaensis, as a national first-class protected plant, has long been threatened by dual high-temperature and drought stress. Photosynthesis is a key target of dual high-temperature and droug...

Abstract Background Understanding the association between birds, zoonotic infections, and urban environments is increasingly important due to industrialization and emerging zoonoses. Investigating the diversity, structur...

IntroductionLow temperatures cause flower prematurely of tobacco sensitive variety, severely impacting its yield and quality. MethodsTo uncover the molecular mechanisms underlying cold-induced early flowering in tobacco,...
