Nitrogen is essential for plant growth and crop productivity; however, nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) decreases with increasing N supply, resulting in a waste of resources. Molecular mechanisms underlying low-nitrogen (LN)-mediated enhancement of NUE are not clear. We used high-NUE Brassica napus genotype H (Xiangyou 15), low-NUE B. napus genotype L (814), and Arabidopsis mutant aux1 to elucidate the mechanism underlying the changes in NUE under different rates of N fertilizer application. NUE of B. napus increased under LN, which enhanced N uptake ability by regulating root system architecture and plasma membrane H-ATPase activity; AUX1 was involved in this process. Additionally, BnNRT1.5 was upregulated and BnNRT1.8 was downregulated under LN, whereby more N was transferred to the shoot through enhanced N transport. Observed changes in photosynthesis under LN were associated with N assimilation efficiency. Our study provides new insights into the mechanisms of plant adaptation to the environment.

Photocatalytic reduction of nitrate to N holds great significance for environmental governance. However, the selectivity of nitrate reduction to N is influenced by sacrificial agents and the kinds of cocatalysts (such as Pt and Ag). The presence of unconsumed sacrificial agents can aggravate environmental pollution, while noble metal-based cocatalysts increase application costs.

The response of oilseed rape to sulfur (S) restriction usually consists of increasing the components of S utilization efficiency (absorption, assimilation and remobilization) to provide S to seeds. However, source-sink relationships and S management in developing seeds under sulfate restriction are poorly understood. To address this, impacts of sulfate restrictions applied at "visible bud" or "start of pod filling" stages were studied with two genotypes (Aviso, Capitol) showing similar seed yield but higher seed weight and lower number of seeds per plant for Capitol under non-limited conditions.

Herein, the construction of potential donor-acceptor (D-A) structures was guided using density-functional theory (DFT) calculations. The photocatalytic nitrogen fixation performance of TAPT-CHF was then experimentally determined to be 327.58 μmol g h, which was attributed to its efficient photo-induced charge separation and migration ability.

Neutron-Transformer Reflectometry Advanced Computation Engine (), a neural network model using a transformer architecture, is introduced for neutron reflectometry data analysis. It offers fast, accurate initial parameter estimations and efficient refinements, improving efficiency and precision for real-time data analysis of lithium-mediated nitrogen reduction for electrochemical ammonia synthesis, with relevance to other chemical transformations and batteries. Despite limitations in generalizing across systems, it shows promises for the use of transformers as the basis for models that could accelerate traditional approaches to modeling reflectometry data.

Triazole, a nitrogen-containing five-membered heterocycle with two isomeric forms, 1,2,3-triazole and 1,2,4-triazole, has proven to be a valuable component in the pharmaceutical domain. Owing to its widespread utility in drug development, pharmaceutical and medicinal chemistry, several synthetic methods have been explored, such as different catalytic systems, solvents, and heating methodologies in recent years. However, some methods were associated with several limitations, such as harsh reaction conditions, high temperatures, low atom economy, and long reaction times.
