Optimization of Acid Protease Production by Aspergillus niger I1 on Shrimp Peptone Using Statistical Experimental Design by Rayda Siala, Fakher Frikha, Samiha Mhamdi, Moncef Nasri, Alya Sellami Kamoun

“…Under the proposed optimized conditions, the experimental protease production (183.13 U mL−1) closely matched the yield predicted by the statistical model (172.57 U mL−1) with R2=0.914. Compared with the initial M1 medium on which protease production was 43.13 U mL−1, a successful and significant improvement by 4.25 folds was achieved in the optimized medium containing (g/L): hulled grain of wheat (HGW) 5.0; KH2PO4 1.0; NaCl 0.3; MgSO4(7H2O) 0.5; CaCl2 (7H2O) 0.4; ZnSO4 0.1; Na2HPO4 1.6; shrimp peptone (SP) 1.0. …”

Remote sensing-based winter wheat yield estimation integrating machine learning and crop growth multi-scenario simulations by Xin Du, Jiong Zhu, Jingyuan Xu, Qiangzi Li, Zui Tao, Yuan Zhang, Hongyan Wang, Haoxuan Hu

“…Validation with field-measured and county-level statistics demonstrated a robust and spatially extensive capability for accurate yield estimation, with R2, RMSE, and MRE values of 0.57, 424.80 kg/ha, and 6.57% at the plot level, and 0.58, 345.53 kg/ha, and 4.93% at the county level, notably improving on traditional field-based methods (R2 = 0.03–0.46) that primarily rely on limited field surveys and statistical models. Model simplification showed that accuracy decreased when fewer remote sensing images were used, yet achieved reasonable estimates (two temporal phases: R2 of 0.41/0.40 at plot/county level). …”
