Fusarium oxysporum , the causal agent of root rot and vascular wilt in common bean ( Phaseolus vulgaris ), represents a substantial risk to legume cultivation. The current study offers a comparative examination of the antifungal efficacy of agro-industrial wastes from cumin ( Cuminum cyminum ), anise ( Pimpinella anisum ), and banana peel ( Musa paradisiaca ), and their green-synthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), against F...
Interpretable deep learning reveals spatiotemporal MRI features of brain aging that align with neurodegenerationNARA Subscribed
Cortical thinning and atrophy are hallmarks of brain aging that have been characterized using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Brain aging involves many neuroanatomic features whose effects on brain structure remain unexplored. To address this challenge, we trained interpretable deep neural networks (DNNs) to estimate brain age (BA) from T 1 -weighted ( T 1 w) MRI. By identifying MRI features unapparent to humans, DNNs can fi...
Root-knot nematodes (RKN) cause extensive damage to grapevine cultivars. RKN-resistant grapevine rootstocks remain vulnerable to biotic and abiotic stresses. This study aimed to determine the influence of composted animal manures (CAMs) [chicken manure (CM), cow manure (CowM), and sheep manure (SM)] with or without plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) on the population of Meloidogyne incognita , free-living nematodes (F...
Transdisciplinary Collaborations for Advancing Sustainable and Resilient Agricultural SystemsNARA Subscribed
Feeding the growing human population sustainably amidst climate change is one of the most important challenges in the 21st century. Current practices often lead to the overuse of agronomic inputs, such as synthetic fertilizers and water, resulting in environmental contamination and diminishing returns on crop productivity. The complexity of agricultural systems, involving plant‐environment interactions and human management, pr...
Animals within social groups respond to costs and benefits of sociality by adjusting the proportion of time they spend in close proximity to other individuals in the group (cohesion). Variation in cohesion between individuals, in turn, shapes important group‐level processes such as subgroup formation and fission–fusion dynamics. Although critical to animal sociality, a comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing coh...
Geochemical evolution of structure-bedding controlled hydrothermal dolomites of the Kinta Valley, Western MalaysiaNARA Subscribed
Study of secondary dolomitization and documentation of the evolution of basinal fluids and host rock, especially that of fine-grained deepwater carbonate mudstone are of interest toward of reservoir characterization. From this perspective, field characteristics in relation to mineralogy, petrography and geochemistry of the Paleaozoic carbonates of the Kinta Valley, Peninsular Malaysia, were investigated and documented. A total...
