Advancements in breeding technologies for enhancing mustard yield and stress resilience: A comprehensive review

Mustard (Brassica juncea) is a major oilseed crop, yet its yield and stability are constrained by a narrow genetic base and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses under changing climates. Although substantial...

Therapeutic potential of carnitine and N-Acetyl-Cysteine supplementation on sperm parameters and pregnancy outcomes in idiopathic male infertility: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized control trials

This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the impact of L-carnitine (LC), L-acetyl-carnitine (LAC), and N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC) on sperm parameters and pregnancy outcomes in men with...

Current status and application of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) germplasm resources

Largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides, LB) is an important aquaculture and fishing species in the world. LB has been introduced into China since 1983, and its aquaculture production has increased year...

Study on mate choice in animals

Sexual selection is critical to animal reproduction. Mate choice not only determines an individual's capacity for reproduction but is also the primary mode of selection in sexual selection. Mate choice...

Analysis of correlation and path coefficient of yield and yield-related traits among the elite sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.)Moench] genotypes in dry lowland areas of Ethiopia

Sorghum [Sorghumbicolor(L.) Moench] is an important cereal crop widely grown in arid and semi-arid regions worldwide. Understanding the relationships between grain yield and its component traits is...

Development of fisheries in China

Fisheries is a social production sector that captures and farms fish and other aquatic animals and plants for aquatic products. In a broad sense, fisheries also include upstream departments (e.g., manufacturing,...

Genetic variability, heritability and genetic advance in Iranian local rice genotypes for yield, and some agronomic traits

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is a cornerstone of global food security, providing 20 % of the world's dietary energy and serving as a staple for half the global population. In Iran, rice supports food supply...

Successful live births after Chinese herbal medicine treatment on a patient of advanced maternal age with severe diminished ovarian reserve: A case report

The fecundity of women decreases significantly beginning approximately at age 35 and decreases more rapidly after age 40. Age affects not only the size of the oocyte pool but also the quality of germ...

Evaluation of yield-related physiological and biochemical traits in recombinant inbred lines of bread wheat under sodic stress

Salt stress is one of the major constraints plaguing the global agriculture sector, severely undermining food and nutritional security. Accelerated soil salinization driven by climate change and rising...

Impact of NPK, FYM and Vermicompost on growth and yield of radish (Raphanus sativus L.)

An investigation was conducted at the Horticulture field Invertis University, Bareilly with a study “Impact of NPK, FYM and Vermicompost on growth and yield of radish (Raphanus sativus L.)” during rabi...

Assessment of genetic variation, heritability, and genetic advance among elite sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L) Moench] genotypes for yield and yield associated traits under moisture stress areas

In dry lowland regions of the world, sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L) Moench) is a significant crop extensively farmed for food, feed, fodder, and fuel. Despite extensive breeding work, sorghum production...

Culture conditions for in vitro maturation of oocytes – A review

The maturation of oocytes external to the body is referred to IVM and is utilised by many different species. IVM bypasses traditional superovulation methods, where several hormonal injections are administered....

Identifying candidate genes associated with high utilization of fishmeal-free low-protein diet via integrated GWAS and transcriptome analysis in yellow catfish Tachysurus fulvidraco

The limited supply of key protein ingredients such as fishmeal and soybean meal critically constrains the sustainable development of global aquaculture. While feed formulation technologies have made...

Improvement and application of genetic resources of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella)

Grass carp was an important economic fish for freshwater aquaculture. The exploring and utilization of high-quality grass carp germplasm resources were important for ensuring a domestic supply of high-quality...

Progress on stress resistance breeding in fish

With the continuing development of the aquaculture industry, the stress associated with many environmental factors has severely restricted the growth of fish, reduced fish resistance to disease, and...

Human breast organoid models for lactation research

The human mammary gland is the major organ involved in lactation. In the mammary gland, alveoli secrete milk and myoepithelial cells contract to propel the milk through branched structures called ducts...

From bench to bedside: Mouse models in translating infertility research to clinical applications in assisted reproduction

The use of animal models, principally mice, has been instrumental in advancing our understanding of reproductive biology. Mice serve as a powerful tool due to their genetic and physiological similarities...

Generation of fast-growth grass carp by mutation of mstnb via CRISPR/Cas9 system

Myostatin (mstn) is a highly conserved negative regulator of myogenesis and myofiber growth in vertebrates. In recent years, the CRISPR/Cas9 (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats)...

Artificial insemination techniques and molecular insights into iridophore development in the ornamental fish bitterling (Rhodeus ocellatus)

The body color of fish is a significant external morphological characteristic that often influences both their ornamental and economic value. Iridophores, display a spectrum of colors that varies with...

Queries on the article "Maternal traditional Chinese medicine exposure and risk of congenital malformations" and suggestions for teratogenicity research

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has a rich history spanning thousands of years, with its applications ranging from treating female infertility and recurrent pregnancy loss to managing nausea and...

Regulatory effects of exogenous melatonin and salicylic acid on low temperature induced-early flowering in tobacco

Low temperature not only inhibits tobacco growth but also leads to early flowering, significantly affecting the yield and quality. Melatonin (MLT) and salicylic acid (SA) play important roles in plant...

Exploring phenotypic variability in quantitative and qualitative traits in F2 population of local red rice

Red rice is nutrient-dense, yet local varieties display suboptimal ideotypes characterized by prolonged growth duration, susceptibility to lodging, and open panicles with reduced grain count, constraining...

Different color varieties of Asian arowana are unlikely distinct species: Molecular and reproductive evidence

The Asian arowana (Scleropages formosus) has gained immense popularity in the ornamental fish trade due to its striking color variations. However, ongoing debates persist regarding the taxonomic classification...
