Unlabelled: (soybean) is a highly protein-rich legume that also contains oils and vitamins. Unfortunately, soybean faces many biotic and abiotic stresses including heat, drought, pests, wounds, infections, and salinity, which limits the crop productivity. Among these, mechanical wounding (MW) causes significant harm to plants, creates a passage for invading pathogens, and disrupts plant metabolism.

Background: Rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) are vital for malaria diagnosis, especially in resource-limited areas. RDTs targeting histidine-rich protein 2 (PfHRP2) and its structural homologue PfHRP3 are commonly used for detecting Plasmodium falciparum. However, genetic deletions in these proteins can affect test accuracy.

Biochar (BC) is a carbon-rich material created from biomass pyrolysis. It is an efficient addition for reducing ammonia inhibition due to its large specific surface area, porosity, conductivity, redox characteristics, and functional groups making it favorable for both soil and water remediation. The efficacy of biochar on the N cycle is associated with biochar properties which are mainly affected by feedstock type and pyrolysis condition.

We report the genome sequence of a tetracycline-resistant , IFSMLMEK1, isolated from the freshwater bivalve . The genome (5,185,668 bp, G+C% 59.65) reveals antibiotic resistance determinants, including tetracycline efflux genes, providing valuable insights into prodigiosin production and tetracycline resistance in environmental isolates.

In this study, the P doping and SnS deposition was controlled to get SnS integrated P-doped g-CN photocatalysts. The prepared photocatalysts were analyzed by XRD, FESEM, HRTEM, PL, UV-DRS, XPS, and Zeta potential emphasizing their crystalline structures, morphological characteristics, charge carrier recombination, band gap energies, chemical compositions, and surface charge. These results confirmed successful P doping by substituting C and formation of heterojunction with SnS.
