The addition lines derived from oat ( Avena sativa L.) × maize ( Zea mays L.) crosses constitute a unique tool for studying gene expression and the structure of chromatin, as well as a source of agronomically desirable traits in the context of new intergeneric hybrid cultivars. Therefore, for a better understanding of the introgression of maize chromatin into the oat genome, a comprehensive analysis of oat × maize lines was co...

Heat stress (HS) adversely affects rabbit production, reducing growth performance, physiological responses, and farm profitability. Nanoemulsified orange essential oil (NOEO) is a natural antioxidant with anti-inflammatory properties that may mitigate oxidative stress and enhance cellular defense mechanisms. This study evaluated the effects of dietary NOEO on growth performance, blood biochemistry, antioxidant status, immune a...

In addition to wild relatives, cultivated Triticeae species such as barley can also serve as an excellent gene source to improve the agronomic traits of bread wheat. The Asakaze-Manas addition lines previously developed in Martonvásár exhibit low fertility and unstable inheritance; nonetheless, they could serve as ’bridge materials’ for the incorporation of barley chromatin into the wheat genome. By leveraging the centric brea...

Objective Brain injury and neurodegenerative conditions are largely caused by oxidative damage and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress spurred on by hyperlipidemia. To lessen these consequences in the brains of hyperlipidemic rats, this study assesses the therapeutic potential of both rosuvastatin glycerosomes (RSV GLSMs) and niacin. Methods The study had five groups: control, hyperlipidemia induced by poloxamer 407 (P407), RSV...

As another part continue for our previous study, variable substituted pyrazoles bearing sulfamoylphenyl moiety were synthesized and screened against two cancer related human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) isoforms and acetazolamide (AAZ) used as a reference standard. Some compounds as 4e and 6c manifested a promising inhibitory activity against both isoforms (K I = 0.072, 0.081 and 0.073, 0.095 µM), respectively. While others as 4a...

Aquafeed quality is the most critical factor for aquaculture sustainability. However, limitations of traditional feed ingredients such as fishmeal (FM) need alternative strategies to ensure the nutritional requirements for aquatic animals. In this trial, four test diets were formulated (2 × 2 factorial design), where FM was incorporated in two diets at 10% with or without Saccharomyces cerevisiae (SC) at 1 g/kg. At the same ti...

Optimizing feeding rates in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) is crucial for ensuring fish growth, health, and system efficiency. This research introduces a novel approach to RAS feeding control using a Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG) reinforcement learning algorithm. The developed system integrates feeding rate optimization with comprehensive water quality management to improve overall performance and stabilit...

Fusarium wilt, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici , threatens global tomato production, with losses reaching 80%. Although chemical fungicides are effective, their prolonged use risks resistant strains, reduces soil biodiversity, and causes environmental damage, highlighting the urgent need for ecofriendly alternatives. This study investigated the viability of Salvia officinalis (sage) methanolic extract as a bioc...

Researchers have reported that Bacillus megaterium BM18-2 reduces Cd toxicity in Hybrid Pennisetum, but understanding the interaction between plants and associated endophytes is crucial for understanding phytoremediation strategies under heavy metal stress. The current study aims to monitor the colonization patterns of GFP-labeled endophytic bacteria BM18-2 on Hybrid Pennisetum grass. Additionally, it will monitor Cd’s effect...

Wild wheat relative Aegilops biuncialis offers valuable traits for crop improvement through interspecific hybridization. However, gene transfer from Aegilops has been hampered by difficulties in detecting introgressed U b - and M b -genome chromatin in the wheat background at high resolution. The present study applied DArTseq technology to genotype two backcrossed populations (BC382, BC642) derived from crosses of wheat line M...
