Enhancing Wheat Tolerance to Cadmium Stress through Moringa Leaf Extract Foliar Application.

Cadmium, a hazardous heavy metal prevalent in plants and soil, poses a significant threat to human health, particularly as approximately 60% of the global population consumes wheat, which can accumulate high levels of Cd through its roots. This uptake leads to the translocation of Cd to the shoots and grains, exacerbating the potential health risks. However, promising results have been observed with the use of moringa leaf extract (MLE) foliar spray in mitigating the adverse effects of Cd stress.

Examining the Relationship Between Obesity and Income Distribution Using Body Mass Index (BMI) and Body Shape and Size Index (BSSI): A Case Study of Pakistan.

Introduction: Obesity and income (wage) distribution have emerged as one of the most serious public health concerns but in this research, the study is continued under body mass index (BMI) and body shape and size index (BSSI) among children and adults in Pakistan.

Methods: This cross-sectional study investigated the health-related behaviors and outcomes of 2,223 children and adults aged 2 to 19 years from Multan, Pakistan, including both males and females, providing a comprehensive understanding of the health status in this population. Data about gender, weight, height, age, family income and other demographic measures are recorded.

Topological Characterization of Coronoid Structures via Valency Based Topological Indices.

Background: The number of atoms producing a bond with an atom a in a molecular structure (graph) is regarded as the valency of a. A number of molecular structures have been topologically characterized via a large number of valency-based topological indices, which correlate certain physio-chemical properties like boiling point, stability, strain energy, and many more chemical compounds.

Objective: Our intention is to perform the topological characterization of primitive coronoid structures initially on the base of seven different valency-based topological indices.

Identification of lovastatin production in Aspergillus terreus strain (KF971363.1) and its antifungal role.

Lovastatin has received interest for its potential therapeutic use in treating numerous diseases, for example, the blood cholesterol level by restraining hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase. The research utilized the fungal growth bioassay technique to disengage and evaluate filamentous organism for the lovastatin creation. The clever type of Aspergillus terreus (KF971363.

Evaluating machine learning performance in predicting sodium adsorption ratio for sustainable soil-water management in the eastern Mediterranean.

Soil salinization is a critical global issue for sustainable agriculture, impacting crop yields and posing a threat to achieving the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) of ensuring food security. It is necessary to monitor it in detail and uncover its underlying factors at a regional scale. In this context, the present study aimed to evaluate soil health in the eastern Mediterranean region by using the Sodium Adsorption Ratio (SAR) as an indicator of soil salinity in three distinct soil horizons.

Effect of Co-Diet Supplementation on Biodegradation of Polyethylene by L. (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae).

Pollution coming from plastic polymers, particularly polyethylene (PE), poses a serious threat to both humans and animals. The biodegradation of plastics facilitated by insects is a crucial and eco-friendly approach that can be employed to combat this global concern. Recently, the larvae of the greater wax moth (L.

Use of as a Soybean Meal Substitute: A Step towards Sustainable Transformative Poultry Feeds.

Insects are becoming increasingly popular as a sustainable and nutritious alternative protein source in poultry feeds, due to their high protein content, low environmental impact, and efficient feed conversion rates. Using insect-based feeds can reduce the need for traditional protein sources like soybean meal (SBM), which often contribute to environmental issues such as deforestation and high water consumption. The current experiments were devised to assess the impacts of the partial replacement of SBM with the American cockroach and black soldier fly on the performances, hematology, gut morphometry, and meat quality of male broilers (Ross 308).

An automated approach to predict diabetic patients using KNN imputation and effective data mining techniques.

Diabetes is thought to be the most common illness in underdeveloped nations. Early detection and competent medical care are crucial steps in reducing the effects of diabetes. Examining the signs associated with diabetes is one of the most effective ways to identify the condition.

Exploring the therapeutic potential of cannabinoids in cancer by modulating signaling pathways and addressing clinical challenges.

For centuries, cannabinoids have been utilized for their medicinal properties, particularly in Asian and South-Asian countries. Cannabis plants, known for their psychoactive and non-psychoactive potential, were historically used for spiritual and remedial healing. However, as cannabis became predominantly a recreational drug, it faced prohibition.

Molecular prevalence, epidemiology, and phylogenetic analysis of Babesia microti in dogs with a note on its impact on host hematological profile.

Babesia (B.) microti is an intra-erythrocytic protozoan parasite that infects humans as well as domestic and wild animals. Prevalence of B.

Synthesis and characterization of Lanthanum Oxide nanoparticles using Citrus aurantium and their effects on Citrus limon Germination and Callogenesis.

The plant extract-mediated method is eco-friendly, simple, safe, and low-cost, using biomolecules as a reducing agent to separate nanoparticles. Lanthanum (La) is a rare earth metal that positively affects plant growth and agriculture. Citrus limon is a leading citrus fruit with many varieties.

Exogenous putrescine application imparts salt stress-induced oxidative stress tolerance via regulating antioxidant activity, potassium uptake, and abscisic acid to gibberellin ratio in Zinnia flowers.

This research was conducted to investigate the efficacy of putrescine (PUT) treatment (0, 1, 2, and 4 mM) on improving morphophysiological and biochemical characteristics of Zinnia elegans "State Fair" flowers under salt stress (0, 50, and 100 mM NaCl). The experiment was designed in a factorial setting under completely randomized design with 4 replications. The results showed that by increasing the salt stress intensity, the stress index (SSI) increased while morphological traits such as plant height decreased.
