Abstract Background Cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) have emerged as a sustainable and environmentally friendly option for a broad range of applications.The fibrous nature and high biopersistence of CNFs call for a thorough toxicity assessment, but it is presently unclear which physico-chemical properties could play a role in determining the potential
Bioturbation can influence petrophysical properties (e.g., porosity, permeability) of sedimentary rocks and, in consequence, reservoir quality.The impact can be positive, negative, or neutral, requiring detailed ichnological analysis.Ophiomorpha, a branched cylindrical burrow with diagnostic peloidal wall, may be present in bioturbated reservoirs t
Cotton produces more biomass and economic yield when cluster planting pattern (three plants per hole) than in a traditional planting pattern (one plant per hole), even at similar plant densities, indicating that individual plant growth is promoted by cluster planting.The causal factors for this improved growth induced by cluster planting pattern, t
In agriculture, new and sustainable strategies are increasingly demanded to integrate the traditional management of viral diseases based on the use of virus-free propagation materials and resistant or tolerant cultivars and on the control of insect vectors.Among the possible Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approaches, organic biostimulants have sh
The article examines the appearance of the Russian Cossacks on the territory of Northwestern Manchuria, namely the Three Rivers, the construction of the first settlements, their cultural life and the translation of Russian traditions.The authors of the work set a goal to study the contribution of the emigrant community to the development of the ima
