Regulation of photosynthetic characteristics carbon and nitrogen metabolism and growth of maize seedlings by graphene oxide coating by Xu Zhang, Weidong Huang, Deyong Kong, Wei Guo, Haiyan Sun

“…Abstract Maize seedlings in cold regions and high latitude often face abiotic stress. As a result, weak seedlings affect maize production, The commonly used seed coating agents in production are mainly to prevent biological stress of pests and diseases, and have little effect on seedling vigor and abiotic resistance. …”

Temporal and Spatial Variation of Potential Evaporation and Its Influencing Factors in Pearl River Basin from 1980 to 2019 by ZUO Daxing, ZANG Chuanfu, WANG Lina

“…Evaporation is an important link in the water cycle,and in-depth studies on the influence of various meteorological factors on evaporation changes are of great significance for climate change,ecological restoration,and utilization of water resources.In this study,the Penman-Monteith model modified by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) is used to calculate the potential evaporation (ET₀) in the Pearl River Basin from 1980 to 2019.The Mann-Kendall non-parametric test method and inverse distance weighting method are used to analyze the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics of the ET₀,and the principal component analysis method is used to analyze the influencing factors.The results show that:① The average ET₀ of the Pearl River Basin is 1 145.8 mm,and the growth rate is 1.37mm/a,which shows an increasing trend.In terms of four seasons,the growth rate increases in spring (0.56 mm/a),autumn (0.4 mm/a),and winter (0.44 mm/a) but decreases in summer (-0.03 mm/a).② In terms of spatial distribution,the annual average ET₀ of the Pearl River Basin is high in the east,west,and south but low in the middle andnorth.The distribution of ET₀in summer,autumn,and winter is similar.However,the distribution of ET₀ in spring is opposite to that in summer,autumn,and winter.③ Temperature,average water vapor pressure,and altitude are the leading factors of ET₀ changes.Factors such as temperature,average water vapor pressure,sunshine duration,and wind speed make positive contributions to ET₀,while altitude,latitude,and relative humidity make negative contributions to ET₀ changes.…”

Climate change-driven shifts in the global distribution of tomato and potato crops and their associated bacterial pathogens by Muhammad Hubab, Niloufar Lorestani, Rogayah Akram Mheisin Al-Awabdeh, Farzin Shabani

“…This study used four species distribution models (SDMs) to predict current and future habitat suitability for both tomato and potato crops, as well as their associated pathogens, under two shared socioeconomic pathways (SSP4.5 and SSP8.5) and four global circulation models (GCMs).ResultsThe models projected significant poleward shifts in suitable habitats for tomatoes and potatoes, with notable expansions in higher-latitude regions such as Canada, northern Europe, and Russia, and contractions in current major production zones such as the United States (US), Brazil, parts of Africa, and China. …”
