The SbTDR gene is required for anther development and male fertility in Sorghum bicolorNARA Subscribed
Anthers are essential in plant reproduction and are also crucial in agriculture, because hybrid seed production typically relies on the manipulation of male fertility. Sorghum ( Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) is the fifth most produced grain crop in the world. However, relatively little is known about the genetic mechanisms that regulate anther development and male fertility in sorghum. Here, we report the morphological characteri...
Vegetation surveys provide key information for evaluating functions within and across estuaries. However, survey methods and analyses are often highly variable, site-specific, and driven by monitoring program goals and objectives, making regional comparisons that include multiple programs difficult. This study compared multiple transect- and quadrat-based vegetation monitoring methods within eight southern California estuaries...
Remote Sensing With Machine Learning to Monitor Seagrass Meadows: Long‐Term Trends in Tauranga Harbour, New ZealandNARA Subscribed
Seagrass meadows play critical roles in coastal ecosystems by stabilising sediments, supporting biodiversity and sequestering carbon, yet monitoring their recovery at scale is often constrained by the lack of scalable and repeatable approaches. This study applies an open‐source remote‐sensing framework to track long‐term changes in Zostera muelleri in Tauranga Harbour, New Zealand, from 1959 to 2024. Using supervised machine l...
Since the first review on imaging of intranasal drug delivery (INDD) was published in 2020, interest in the topic has increased, necessitating an update, which is the basis of the current review. INDD is a promising alternative for treating central nervous system (CNS) diseases. In vivo imaging is also important for therapy assessment, both clinically and preclinically. This review details studies that further our understandin...
On‐Farm Demonstration and Economic Evaluation of an IoT Sensing System for Irrigation Management in South CarolinaNARA Subscribed
Irrigation can strongly influence agricultural productivity and sustainability. While sensor‐based irrigation has the potential to improve yield, reduce input costs and enhance resource‐use efficiency, its adoption in commercial agriculture remains limited. This study evaluated and demonstrated the performance of an IoT soil water monitoring system and the effects of sensor‐based irrigation on crop yield and economic returns i...
