With the method of areoponics, this paper established a rhizosphere gas environment research system to study the effects of different rhizosphere CO2 concentration on the growth of potato (Solanum tuberosum) plants. The results showed that in treatments 380 and 380 approximately 920 micromol CO2 x mol(-1), the plant height, stem diameter, leaf area, root length, and individuals of stolon and mini-tuber had a similar variation trend with time, and presented two distinct phases. The plants grew vigorously, and their tuber yield increased markedly, compared with treatment 3,600 micromol CO2 x mol(-1), which indicated that 380 approximately 920 micromol CO2 x mol(-1) was the appropriate CO2 concentration in the root zone to promote potato growth, while overmuch rhizosphere CO2 would markedly inhibit the growth and development of potato plants. Treatment 3,600 micromol CO2 x mol(-1) and sand culture had the similar stem diameter, leaf area, and individuals of stolon and mini-tuber. The plants grew short and weak, and tuber yield was lower.

Nonradical species with great resistance to interference have shown great advantages in complex wastewater treatment. Herein, a novel system constructed by biodegradable tetrakis-(4-carboxyphenyl)-porphyrinatoiron(III) (Fe-TCPP) and peroxymonosulfate (PMS) was proposed for facile decontamination. Nonradical pathway is observed in Fe-TCPP/PMS, where O and high-valent iron-oxo species play dominant roles.

For decarbonization of ammonia production in industry, alternative methods by exploiting renewable energy sources have recently been explored. Nonetheless, they still lack yield and efficiency to be industrially relevant. Here, we demonstrate an advanced approach of nitrogen fixation to synthesize ammonia at ambient conditions via laser-induced multiphoton dissociation of lithium oxide.

Photo- or electroreduction of carbon dioxide into highly valued products offers a promising strategy to achieve carbon neutrality. Here, a series of polyoxometalate-based metal-organic frameworks (M-POMOFs) were constructed by metalloporphyrins [tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)-porphyrin-M (M-TCPPs)] and reductive POM for photo- and electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reductions (PCR and ECR, respectively), and the mysteries between the roles of single metal site and cluster in catalysis were disclosed. Iron-POMOF exhibited an excellent selectivity (97.

The molecules feeding life's emergence are thought to have been provided through the hydrothermal interactions of convecting carbonic ocean waters with minerals comprising the early Hadean oceanic crust. Few laboratory experiments have simulated ancient hydrothermal conditions to test this conjecture. We used the JPL hydrothermal flow reactor to investigate CO reduction in simulated ancient alkaline convective systems over 3 days (T = 120°C, = 100 bar, pH = 11).

Objective: To explore the effect of ERK1/2 MAPK pathway on the expression of Kv1.5 channel, a voltage-gated potassium ion channel, in rat pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) and its mechanisms during the process of hypoxia.
Methods: The PASMCs derived from SD rats were cultivated primarily.
