The nerve-growth-promoting effects of the tricyclic antidepressant, imipramine, were tested on the sympathetic ganglion of chickens and on the sciatic nerve of rats. A powerful neuronotrophic action was observed in vitro, but the utilization of the drug in vivo did not modify the functional recovery from a crush lesion.

Shrub encroachment can alter the structure and function of grassland ecosystems, leading to their degradation. Therefore, population regeneration dynamics after shrub encroachment on the influence of grassland should not be ignored. , as a pioneer species, has significantly encroached with large areas on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) due to climate change and over-grazing.

Moisture is the most important environmental factor limiting seed regeneration of shrubs in desert areas. Therefore, understanding the effects of moisture changes on seed germination, morphological and physiological traits of shrubs is essential for vegetation restoration in desert areas. In March to June 2023, in a greenhouse using the potting method, we tested the effects of soil moisture changes (5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25%) on seed germination and seedling growth of six desert shrubs (, , , , , and ).

Article Synopsis
  • Cryopreservation at -196 °C is a key method for long-term storage of non-orthodox seeds and wild flora, though its implementation faces challenges like poor in vitro propagation techniques and a lack of standard protocols.
  • This study created a systematic droplet-vitrification cryopreservation method specifically for shoot tips, using a two-step sucrose preculture and specialized cryoprotective solutions.
  • The results showed that using liquid overlay during regrowth significantly improved plantlet development from cryopreserved samples, achieving an 80% regeneration rate—23% higher than without the overlay.

Good mental preparation of an athlete plays an important role in achieving optimal sports results. An athlete who enters a competition should not feel fatigue resulting from intense physical exercise. Therefore, new and effective methods are being sought that could help accelerate the process of both physical and mental regeneration.

The proportion and area of ratoon rice planting in China have been substantially increased, due to continuous improvement of rice breeding methods and consecutive innovation of cultivation technology, which has developed into one of rice planting modes with significant production efficiency. Combining the experience in research and practice, from the perspective of crop physiology and ecology, we reviewed the current situation and prospects of high-yielding formation and physiological mechanisms of ratoon rice. We focused on four key aspects: screening and breeding of ratoon rice cultivars and the classification; suitable stubble height for mechanically harvested ratoon rice, as well as water and fertilizer management; dry matter production and allocation in ratoon rice and the relationship with yield formation; regenerative activity and vigor of ratoon rice roots and their relationship with rhizosphere micro-ecological characteristics.
