Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous and persistent pollutants, have been detected in a wide variety of media, from soils to aquatic systems. MPs, consisting primarily polyethylene, polypropylene, polyacrylamide polymers, recently found 12% samples honey collected Ecuador. Recently, MPs also identified bees apiaries Copenhagen, Denmark, as well nearby semiurban rural areas. Given these documented exposures, assessment their effects is critical for understanding the risks MP exposure bees....

Screening for drought tolerance requires precise techniques like phonemics, which is an emerging science aimed at non-destructive methods allowing large-scale screening of genotypes. Large-scale complements genomic efforts to identify genes relevant crop improvement. Thirty maize inbred lines from various sources (exotic and indigenous) maintained Dryland Agriculture Research Station were used in the current study. In automated plant transport imaging systems (LemnaTec Scanalyzer system...

Abstract Due to increased demand, labor costs, and water scarcity, farmers look for an alternative way of rice cultivation under prevailing conventional transplanting. Direct‐seeded Oryza sativa system intensification (SRI) have been developed as superior substitutes However, if weeds are not controlled properly, the direct seeding method faces serious weed infestation yield losses. In this context, a field study was undertaken during kharif growing seasons evaluate growth O. various crop...
