Mapping proteomic response to salinity stress tolerance in oil crops: Towards enhanced plant resilience.

Exposure to saline environments significantly hampers the growth and productivity of oil crops, harmfully affecting their nutritional quality and suitability for biofuel production. This presents a critical challenge, as understanding salt tolerance mechanisms in crops is key to improving their performance in coastal and high-salinity regions. Our content might be read more properly: This review assembles current knowledge on protein-level changes related to salinity resistance in oil crops.

Assessment of the Antivirulence Potential of Ethanolic Extract against Multidrug-Resistant Isolated from Iraqi Patients.

Halophytes have long been used for medicinal purposes. However, their use was entirely empirical, with no knowledge of the bioactive compounds. The plant L.

Optimization and Chemical Characterization of Biosurfactant Produced from a Novel Strain Iraqi ZG.K.M.

Microbial surfactants are widely used in medical, pharmaceutical, agricultural, industrial, food, and cosmetics applications. In the present study, 85 indigenous bacteria were isolated from petroleum-contaminated soils of the Al Dourah refinery, electric power station, and electric generators in Baghdad, Iraq. Twenty nine isolates gave positive results in both blood agar and blue agar medium and were secondarily screened.

The environmental, economic, and social development impact of desertification in Iraq: a review on desertification control measures and mitigation strategies.

The threat of desertification is considered a global concern that occurs in many environments in different parts of the world, where extensive lands are transformed gradually into desert or semi-desert areas, and this causes economic and health issues. Iraq and many other parts of the Middle East are facing desertification threats in the last twenty years. Despite the significance of this issue, relevant reviews are scarce.
