Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStrigolactones in Plant Stress Adaptation: Mechanisms and Agricultural PotentialHumayra Ferdus, Mahabuba Mostafa, Md. Motaher HossainAbiotic stresses have significant negative effects on the growth, development, and productivity of crop plants, which are critical to global agricultural production and ecosystem stability. Strigolactones (SLs), a family of carotenoid-derived plant phytohormones, have been identified as playing key roles in plant development and adaptive responses to environmental stimuli. Initially recognized as signaling molecules in host-parasite interactions and as symbiotic … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 3 Oct 2026 · 559 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDual-Branch Shape Texture Learning With Pyramid Residual and Sobel Edge Layers for Rice Variety ClassificationM Pradeep, M SiddappaAutomated rice variety classification categorizes rice types based on features, such as grain texture, shape, color, and size. Traditional handcrafted feature-based models fail at rice classification due to lighting variations, background noise, and environmental conditions, leading to overlapping visual characteristics and frequent misclassification. To address these challenges, this research proposes a novel Dual-Branch Convolutional Neural Network with Pyramid Residual Units … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 9 · 24 Sep 2026 · 627 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Adaptive Detail Preserving Modified Progressive Pca Thresholding Based Image DenoisingN. Anilkumar, S. Radhakrishnan, Shaik Syed Basha et al.Radiologists use medical imaging tools to assess the anatomy and function of interior organs. However, medical images are frequently distorted by various types of noise generated during the capture, transmission, and reconstruction operations, which can dramatically reduce image quality and hide critical diagnostic features. As a result, developing effective denoising algorithms that suppress noise while maintaining structural information remains a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 8 · 8 Sep 2026 · 529 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCrack Bridging and Deflection Toughening Mechanisms of Staggered Hydroxyapatite Lamellar Microstructure in BoneYuxi Liu, Xiaohui He, Shuge Li, Zhangdong SunThe observation experiment results of the microstructure of tibial cortical bone show that the cortical bone is a layered bio-ceramic composite material composed of Hydroxyapatite (HAP) and collagen arranged alternately. HAP is a reinforcing phase and accounts for a large proportion in cortical bone. These hydroxyapatites have long and thin sheet-like structures parallel to the outer surface of the bone, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 31 Jul 2026 · 890 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Empirical Investigation of the Pollution Haven-Halo Nexus in Eastern and Southern AfricaPaul KauluThis study looks into the relationship between trade and pollution in Eastern and Southern Africa from 1977 to 2016. This timeframe is particularly relevant as it was marked by rising CO₂ emissions despite major climate agreements such as the Kyoto Protocol (1997), Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+, 2007), as well as the Paris Agreement (2015).

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Water Bath Heating on Tannin Content and Quality Improvement Potential of Gambier (Uncaria gambir Roxb.)Daimon Syukri, Bastian Nova, Rina Yenrina et al.Gambir (Uncaria gambir Roxb.) is a source of natural phenolic compounds rich in catechins and tannins and has potential as a sustainable industrial raw material. During heating, phenolic compounds may undergo structural changes, including possible oxidation and polymerization, which can affect gambier quality beyond its catechin content. This study evaluated the effect of indirect heating duration using a water bath … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 23 Sep 2026 · 704 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Analysis of Proteins in Two Typical Chinese Thin-Shell WalnutsXu Meng, Tian YilingThis study compared functional properties and molecular characteristics of proteins from two thin-shelled walnut (Juglans regia L.) cultivars predominantly grown in China: Wen 185 and Lvling. Wen 185 walnut protein demonstrated significantly superior performance compared to Lvling across multiple functional parameters, including solubility, emulsifying capacity, foaming capacity, water absorption, and oil absorption. Molecular weight distribution analysis revealed that both proteins … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 15 Feb 2026 · 1,481 accessesView PDFCite
