Root development is a complex process involving phytohormones and transcription factors. Our previous research has demonstrated that is significantly expressed in Bok choy roots under salt stress, and heterologous expression of increases salt tolerance and promotes root development in transgenic . However, the precise molecular mechanisms by which BcWRKY33A governs root development remain elusive.

However, the current monitoring methods mainly rely on manual recording and observation, leading to low monitoring efficiency. This study addresses the challenges of monitoring agricultural progress and the time-consuming and labor-intensive nature of the monitoring process.

Here we present a molecular network responsible for maintaining karyotype stability in the male mouse germline.

However, the functional microorganisms and their metabolic pathways, as well as interactions, remain largely elusive. Here, a microbial consortium was enriched from a mixture of freshwater sediments and activated sludge by feeding ammonium, nitrate and Mn(II), which established manganese-driven co-removal of nitrate and ammonium with removal rates of 5.

Methods: Male C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned to the control (Ctrl) or chronic unpredictable stress (CUS) groups.
