Polished rice is a staple food for over 50% of the world's population, but contains little bioavailable iron (Fe) to meet human needs. Thus, biofortifying grain with novel promoters or enhancers Fe utilization would be one most effective strategies prevent high prevalence deficiency and anemia in developing world.We transformed an elite line cultivated Southern China nicotianamine synthase gene (OsNAS1) fused glutelin promoter. Endosperm overexpression OsNAS1 resulted significant increase...

Abstract Background Root-knot nematodes (RKN) are among the most important root-damaging plant-parasitic nematodes, causing severe crop losses worldwide. The plant rhizosphere and root endosphere contain rich diverse bacterial communities. However, little is known about how RKN bacteria interact to impact parasitism health. Determining keystone microbial taxa their functional contributions health development for understanding developing efficient biological control strategies in agriculture....

The bioavailability of Fe from 24 select genotypes bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) seeds containing a range concentrations Fe, myo-inositol pentaphosphate plus phytic acid (IP5+IP6), and tannins was studied using rat model. Bean accessions, selected field trials for their variations in phytate, tannin seed concentrations, were grown greenhouse nutrient solutions radiolabeled with (59)Fe. Mature autoclaved lyophilized. Test meals (containing 1 g dried bean, 0.5 sucrose, basal Fe-deficient diet)...

Field crop yield prediction is crucial to grain storage, agricultural field management, and national decision-making. Currently, models are widely used for prediction. However, they hampered by the uncertainty or similarity of input parameters when extrapolated scale. Data assimilation methods that combine remote sensing most effective estimation. In this study, World Food Studies (WOFOST) model simulate growing process spring maize. Common face some difficulties due scarce, constant,...

Abstract Rhizobacteria play an important role in bridging the soil and plant microbiomes improving health growth of plants. In this study, bacterial community structures compositions rhizosphere associated with six species, representing two orders three families wild plants grown same field, were evaluated. The species examined harbored a core similar communities microbiome, which was dominated by members Rhizobiales, Sphingomonadales, Burkholderiales, Xanthomonadales Proteobacteria,...

An in vitro digestion/Caco-2 model was used to compare iron bioavailability from 15 selected Fe-dense and normal genotypes of unpolished rice the International Rice Research Institute. Iron uptake determined using Caco-2 cell ferritin formation response exposure a digest cooked rice. bioavailabilities all were ranked as percent relative control variety (Nishiki). concentration samples ranged 14 39 microg/g. No correlation observed between Fe grain-Fe concentration. Furthermore, phytic acid...

Microorganisms that colonize the plant rhizosphere can contribute to health, growth and productivity. Although importance of microbiome is known, we know little about underlying mechanisms drive assembly composition. In this study, variation, composition rhizobacterial communities in 11 tomato cultivars, combined with one cultivar seven different sources soil growing substrate, were systematically investigated. The microbiota was dominated by bacteria from phyla Proteobacteria,...

Rapidly and accurately estimating yields at field scales are very significant. Each type of currently yield estimation model has been well studied, yet all them have certain limitations. Based on a coupled Carnegie-Ames-Stanford approach (CASA)-World Food Studies (WOFOST) time series Sentinel-2 imagery, we achieved daily crop simulations estimations two adjacent farms in China. The results indicated that the inherited high computing speed light use efficiency (LUE) models mechanistic...

The somatic cell count (SCC) is widely used to assess milk quality and diagnose intramammary infections. Several whey proteins have been shown correlate significantly with SCC are considered potential indicators of udder health. However, the relationship between has not fully elucidated. In this study, samples were grouped into five categories based on levels. Subsequently, identified using a label-free proteomics approach, differential abundance was validated through selected reaction...

Four different colored beans (white, red, pinto, and black beans) were investigated for factors affecting iron bioavailability using an in vitro digestion/human Caco-2 cell model. Iron from whole beans, dehulled their hulls was determined. The results show that white contained higher levels of bioavailable compared to beans. These differences not due bean-iron bean-phytate concentrations. Flavonoids the bean found be contributing low non-white White no detectable flavonoids but did contain...
