Perception of land rights, village industrial development, and household entrepreneurial behavior—evidence from non-farm entrepreneurship in rural China by Yiqing Weng, Shuifu Wang

“…Therefore, we analysed the mechanisms influencing farmers’ entrepreneurial behavior from two aspects: farmers’ internal psychological perception of the stability of land rights and the driving role of village-level industrial development.MethodsOur analysis is based on data from a sample of 2356 farmers in Jiangsu Province, China, and uses mathematical modeling and binary logic modeling methods.ResultsThe results show that the regression coefficient for the perception of land rights on farmers’ entrepreneurial behavior is 0.573; the regression coefficient for village industrial development on farmers’ entrepreneurial behavior is 1.480; and the regression coefficient for the interaction term between perception of land rights and village industrial development on farmers’ entrepreneurial behavior is 0.361. …”

Application of Metagenomic and Targeted Next-Generation Sequencing in Diagnosis of Pulmonary Tuberculosis in Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid by Yang Z, Liu Q, Hu Y, Geng S, Ni JX

“…Additionally, these techniques identified mixed microbial species in 52.13% of the BALF samples. Although both mNGS and tNGS demonstrated similar diagnostic rates, tNGS proved to be faster, more cost-effective, and incorporated a tuberculosis-specific wall-breaking technology, thereby suggesting greater clinical utility.Conclusion: BALF mNGS and tNGS technologies quickly and accurately detect PTB patients with greater sensitivity and specificity than traditional MTB methods. …”

Association mapping and candidate gene identification for drought tolerance in sorghum by Huiting Min, Huiting Min, Kang Wang, Kang Wang, Tiantian Wang, Tiantian Wang, Xinxiu Cheng, Xinxiu Cheng, Ephrem Habyarimana, Yongfei Wang, Yongfei Wang, Die Hu, Die Hu, Yi-Hong Wang, Lihua Wang, Lihua Wang

“…Sorghum is a well-known drought-tolerant crop model, and sorghum landraces possess novel alleles for local adaptation.MethodsIn this study, we evaluated a sorghum mini core panel of 239 landraces sampled globally for shoot and root growth under simulated drought conditions using 10% and 20% polyethylene glycol (PEG) in 2020 and 2024, and measured drought tolerance using the seedling tolerance coefficient (STC).Results and discussionPhenotypic analysis showed that more accessions produced more roots than longer roots when exposed to 10% PEG; however, at 20% PEG, more accessions produced longer roots than more roots, reflecting the adaptability of some accessions to drought stress. …”
