The Regulation of ROS and Phytohormones in Balancing Crop Yield and Salt Tolerance.

Salinity affects crop growth and productivity, and this stress can be increased along with drought or high temperature stresses and poor irrigation management. Cultivation of salt-tolerant crops plays a critical role in enhancing crop yield under salt stress. In the past few decades, the mechanisms of plant adaptation to salt stress have been described, especially relying on ionic homeostasis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging, and phytohormone signaling.

Influence of Drying Methods on the Morphological Features, Microstructural Properties, and Antioxidant Performance of : A Metabolomic Analysis.

() has garnered increasing attention as an ingredient in both the pharmaceutical and food industries. Depending on the drying method, the accumulation of metabolites can greatly affect the quality. This research employed an untargeted metabolomics (LC-MS/MS) strategy to elucidate the similarities and differences in the morphological characteristics, microstructure, antioxidant capacity, and metabolic profiles of subjected to three distinct drying methods: natural air-drying (YG), oven-drying (HG), and vacuum freeze-drying (DG).

Metabolomics and Transcriptomics Reveal the Effects of Different Fermentation Times on Antioxidant Activities of .

is a fungus that is cultured through fermentation from wild Chinese cordyceps. While studies have examined its metabolites, the evaluation of its antioxidant capacity remains to be conducted. The antioxidant results of indicate that the ferric ion-reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), antioxidant capacity (2.

Measuring the Risk Spillover Effect of RCEP Stock Markets: Evidence from the TVP-VAR Model and Transfer Entropy.

This paper selects daily stock market trading data of RCEP member countries from 3 December 2007 to 9 December 2024 and employs the Time-Varying Parameter Vector Autoregression (TVP-VAR) model and transfer entropy to measure the time-varying volatility spillover effects among the stock markets of the sampled countries. The results indicate that the signing of the RCEP has strengthened the interconnectedness of member countries' stock markets, with an overall upward trend in volatility spillover effects, which become even more pronounced during periods of financial turbulence. Within the structure of RCEP member stock markets, China is identified as a net risk receiver, while countries like Japan and South Korea act as net risk spillover contributors.

Eco-friendly synthesis of Arabinoxylan-Catechin conjugates: Enhanced functional and antioxidant properties via cold plasma and ultrasonic methods.

Arabinoxylan-catechin complexes were synthesized using two eco-friendly methods: cold plasma and ultrasonic treatments. Their physicochemical, structural and functional properties were evaluated. Cold plasma and ultrasonic treatments did not significantly alter the molecular structure of arabinoxylan, although a decrease Mw was noticed.
