The widespread production and utilization of graphene oxide (GO) raise concerns about its environmental release and potential ecological impacts, particularly in agricultural soil. Effective nitrogen (N) management, especially through nitrification inhibitors like dicyandiamide (DCD), might mitigate the negative effects of GO exposure on soil microbes via N biostimulation. This study quantified changes

Based on previous research, this study synthesized 24 compounds by splicing the substructures of the indolyl group and the isothiocyanate group. Alternaria alternata, Phytophthora capsici, Botrytis cinerea, and Valsa mali were used to test the activity of the target compounds. At 100 μg/mL, compounds 8, 13, 14, and 17 exhibited excellent inhibitory effects of more than 80% on P. capsici, B. cinerea

Metarhizium rileyi is a filamentous entomopathogenic fungus that is highly pathogenic to lepidopteran insects. In our study, we constructed an Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transgene system using the hygromycin resistance gene (Hyg R) as a selection marker in M. rileyi through homologous recombination. Binary knockout vectors for two genes (NOR_03501, longevity assurance gene, and NOR_03153, ATP-binding

Trichoderma longibrachiatum is a filamentous fungus used as a biological control agent against different plant diseases. The multifunctional secondary metabolites synthesized by Trichoderma, called peptaibols, have emerged as key elicitors in plant innate immunity. This study obtained a high-quality genome sequence for the T. longibrachiatum strain 40418 and identified two peptaibol biosynthetic gene

Gelatin is a significant multifunctional biopolymer that is widely utilized as a component in food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. Numerous functional qualities are displayed by gelatin, such as its exceptional film-forming ability, gelling qualities, foaming and emulsifying qualities, biocompatibility and biodegradable qualities. Due to its unique structural, physicochemical, and biochemical characteristics

Traditional heat extraction (HE) has a low efficiency (75.2 wt%) and induces lipid oxidation of PUFAs. The novel micro-aqueous cold (<25 °C) extraction (MAE) was applied to extract salmon head oil. The recovery rate was 93.4 wt% at oil volume fraction Φ = 74 %. The extraction mechanism was agitation-induced droplet coalescence at an unstable and close-packing state (Φ = 74 %), increasing the portions
