2022年5月27日 · Proenkephalin (PENK), as the precursor of endogenous opioid enkephalin (ENK), is widely present in the nervous system and plays an important role in animal food addiction and rewarding behavior. In our study, we intend to study the functional characterization and molecular marker development of the penk gene related to food habit domestication of …

2024年8月4日 · In the arid and semi-arid regions of Northwest China, periodic rainfall deficits, high field evaporation, limited freshwater resources, and high irrigation costs restrict crop yield and water productivity (WP). Gravel mulching (GM), a traditional agricultural tillage management practice widely used in arid and semi-arid regions, improves crop yield and WP. However, the …

2022年3月8日 · The fashion industry is the second most polluting industry, contributing 8% of all carbon emissions and 20% of all global wastewater, with an anticipated 50% increase in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. To gain a better understanding of the state of the academic literature on the environmental impacts of the fast fashion industry, we systematically identified …

2024年10月29日 · The main topics of this Special Issue include water and wastewater treatment technologies that can address contaminants of emerging concern for the aquatic environment, such as membrane filtration, adsorption, coagulation, ion exchange, biological processes, ozonation, and advanced oxidation or hybrid processes.

2024年12月20日 · Microorganisms play a crucial role in biogeochemical cycling within wetland ecosystems. Soil-environment-mediated seasonal changes in microbial structure require further investigation. However, the factors driving seasonal variations in the microbial abundance and diversity in the Daihai wetlands remain unclear. This study employed high-throughput …

2023年5月18日 · Artificial intelligence (AI) involves the development of algorithms and computational models that enable machines to process and analyze large amounts of data, identify patterns and relationships, and make predictions or decisions based on that analysis. AI has become increasingly pervasive across a wide range of industries and sectors, with …

Feature papers represent the most advanced research with significant potential for high impact in the field. A Feature Paper should be a substantial original Article that involves several techniques or approaches, provides an outlook for future research …

2024年12月12日 · Water scarcity and pollution remain two of the most pressing global challenges, with profound implications for public health, environmental sustainability, and economic development [1,2].As the global population continues to grow and industrial activities expand, the demand for clean, safe water is steadily increasing [].However, water bodies are increasingly …

2024年11月7日 · Rapeseed meal is severely restricted in its utilization as unconventional animal feed due to anti-nutritive compounds, such as glucosinolate, that are degraded to toxic nitriles such as 3-butenenitrile and 4-pentenenitrile in animals. Few studies on nitrilases that can degrade glucosinolate-derived nitriles have been reported thus far. In the present study, a nitrilase …
