Dissipation of fentrazamide in soil under aerobic conditions was studied. Fentrazamide was extracted with 0.1 N HCl: acetone (1:1 v/v) followed by partition and cleanup. Separation was done on ODS-II column with mobile phase acetonitrile: water (70:30 v/v). Recovery varied from 74.51 % to 90.10 % percent in soil. Dissipation followed first order kinetics with monophasic pattern. Half life in soil was 9.02 days. Calibration curves were linear over the range of 0.05-1.00 μg mL(-1) and RSD was 1.82 %. LOD and LOQ were 0.002 and 0.005 μg g(-1) for soil. No residues in soil and crop were observed at harvest.

This study investigated the surface microbiome of the honeybee (), focusing on the diversity and functional roles of its associated microbial communities. While the significance of the microbiome to insect health and behavior is increasingly recognized, research on invertebrate surface microbiota lags behind that of vertebrates. A combined metagenomic and cultivation-based approach was employed to characterize the bacterial communities inhabiting the honeybee exoskeleton.

Tea plantations commonly receive substantial quantities of nitrogen (N) fertilizer, with potential for considerable N loss to occur. This study assessed N retention in acidic tea plantation soil and examined how different biochar application rates and fertilizer combinations affect N dynamics, highlighting the importance of innovative technologies to monitor and enhance N supply management. This research adopted a modified 2-week aerobic incubation and ion-exchange membrane (IEM) techniques to evaluate the soil N supply in tea plantations following early-summer top-dressing as influenced by various biochar rates and fertilizer combinations.

is a Gram-negative, obligate aerobic bacillus commonly found in environmental settings, particularly in soil and water, as well as within the intestinal microbiota of humans and various animal species. This bacterium has the potential to act as an opportunistic pathogen, capable of causing severe infections in both humans and animals, which can sometimes result in fatal outcomes. Notably, is often characterized by a high degree of antibiotic resistance, complicating treatment efforts.
