This study aims to address the gap in understanding of the impact of the sample quantity, traceability range, and shelf life on the accuracy of mung bean origin traceability models based on near-infrared spectroscopy. Mung beans from Baicheng City, Jilin Province, Dorbod Mongol Autonomous, Tailai County, Heilongjiang Province, and Sishui County, Shandong Province, China, were used. Through near-infrared spectral acquisition (12,000-4000 cm) and preprocessing (Standardization, Savitzky-Golay, Standard Normal Variate, and Multiplicative Scatter Correction) of the mung bean samples, the total cumulative variance contribution rate of the first three principal components was determined to be 98.

However, only a limited number of examples have been reported to date. Here, we show that desmethyl desamino pateamine A (DMDA-PatA) represses translation in an mRNA-selective manner by clamping eIF4A, a DEAD-box RNA-binding protein, onto GNG motifs.

As a type of polyamine, spermidine (Spd) has been shown to reduce stress-induced damage in plants, but its specific role and mechanism in protecting rice roots under salt stress require further investigation.
Results: This study suggested spermidine (Spd) mitigates salt stress on rice root growth by enhancing antioxidant enzyme activity and reducing peroxide levels.

This research aimed to fill this gap by examining how these two major legumes respond differently to cold stress and exploring the role of uniconazole, a potential stress mitigator. Our comprehensive approach involved transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses, revealing distinct responses between soybean and mung bean under cold stress conditions.

However, limited by the strong coupling relationship between Li and Lewis basic sites on the polymer chain, the Li transference number () of the solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) based dual-ion conductor is typically low, resulting in excessive anion aggregation at the electrode side and inducing concentration polarization. In this study, we present a functionalized modified polymer electrolyte (FMPE) with selective cation transport, which was synthesized by embedding 4-(trifluoromethyl)styrene (TFS) functionalized groups onto the poly(diethylene glycol diacrylate) polymer chain.
