Macronutrients-availing microbiomes: biodiversity, mechanisms, and biotechnological applications for agricultural sustainability.

Nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium are the three most essential micronutrients which play major roles in plant survivability by being a structural or non-structural component of the cell. Plants acquire these nutrients from soil in the fixed (NO, NH) and solubilized forms (K, HPO and HPO). In soil, the fixed and solubilized forms of nutrients are unavailable or available in bare minimum amounts; therefore, agrochemicals were introduced.

Evidence is not sufficient to declare the tubal gland conglomerates as salivary.

The letter to Editor is regarding an article by Pringle et al., 2023 which presents the histological and immunohistochemical characterization of the submucosal seromucous gland conglomerate at the nasopharyngeal end of the auditory tube (AT) and compares the same with the major and minor salivary glands, while trying to substantiate the claims of a previous work by Valstar et al., 2021.

Accurate birth weight prediction from fetal biometry using the Gompertz model.

Objectives: Monitoring of fetal growth and estimation of birth weight is of clinical importance. During pregnancy, ultrasound fetal biometry values including femur length, head circumference, abdominal circumference, biparietal diameter are measured and used to place fetuses on "growth charts". There is no simple growth-model-based, predictive formula in use for fetal biometry.
