Sugar palm fibers were treated with NaOH concentrations ranging from 0 % to 20 % to assess impacts on key paper properties, including tensile strength, brightness, opacity, and thickness. The hybrid pulping process integrated NaOH immersion, room temperature treatment, and refined mechanical pulping, followed by Sommerville screening, spinning, and blending. Advanced characterization techniques, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), and Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), identified 15 % NaOH as the optimal concentration, yielding a 2.8 % increase in cellulose content, a 29.18 % rise in crystallinity index, and enhanced tensile strength to 2.86 kN/m. Thermal stability was also significantly improved, with degradation temperatures reaching 202.1°C and 580.2°C for the first and second degradation phases, respectively.

The present study shows that <em>H. perforatum</em> inflorescences extracts contain tocopherols (Ts) and rare nature tocotrienols (T3s). To demonstrate that is high probability of the presence of tocotrienols in pharmaceutical products obtained from St. John’s Wort by hydroethanolic solutions, several hydroethanolic extracts (40.0–96.2 %) of <em>H. perforatum</em> inflorescences was obtained. To show that <em>H. perforatum</em> residues can still be a valuable source of tocotrienols after 1st extraction, several extracts using 96.2 % ethanol were produced. From eight tocochromanols present in <em>H. perforatum</em> inflorescences, the extracts contained mostly δ-T3, followed by α-T and α-T3. The 40.0 % and 50.0 % ethanol extracts contained trace amounts of only δ-T3, and the extractability of tocochromanols increased along with the ethanol ratio. Re-extraction in 96.2 % ethanol allowed for complete recovery of δ-T3 from St. John’s Wort.

The surface color, micro-morphology and surface interfacial composition of comparing various bamboo samples during storage. The results showed that the total color difference for the cortex (9.758 ± 0.712) and pith (1.325 ± 0.075) under AL conditions were lower than the other three sets of storage conditions, and L* values were reduced by 56.42 % and 53.73 %, respectively. In addition, microflora and grooves were formed on the surface of bamboo stored under AL-90 %RH conditions. Meanwhile, catheters were the main channels for the propagation of mycelium in bamboo. Moreover, the Cox/unox value (an oxygenated to unoxygenated carbon ratio of 0.964) increased sharply under these conditions. UV-aging destroyed the texture and structure of bamboo tissue cells and surfaces, degraded the surface lignin content by 18.89 %, and exposed more observable hemicellulose and cellulose functional groups, thus increasing the carbon binding energy and becoming more difficult to degrade. Finally, the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural network model was used to predict the fading of the surface color and the volatile compounds after aging, and different photoaging color indication systems were established. Exploring the aging mechanism of bamboo during storage is important for promoting the development of bamboo industry and replacing plastic products, and helping in determine the practical applications of the proposed strategies, their economic benefits and limiting of bamboo photodegradation under optimal warehousing conditions.

The evaluation and identification of high-vigor germplasms are essential for increasing soybean production capacity. Currently, there is no universally accepted evaluation system to test for soybean seed vigor. In this study, 11 seed vigor-related traits were measured across 126 soybean landraces via an artificial accelerated aging technique. The ratios of these 11 traits, which were calculated before and after artificial accelerated aging, were used as vigor indicators in principal component analysis (PCA), ultimately yielding two principal component factors. These factors were then combined via membership function standardization to calculate a comprehensive seed vigor evaluation value (<em>V</em> value), thereby establishing an evaluation system. Cluster analysis based on the <em>V</em> value was used to classify seed vigor into five levels and identify seven high-vigor germplasms: ZDD12322, ZDD06438, ZDD11951, ZDD08251, ZDD12436, ZDD02315, and ZDD15624. Through stepwise regression analysis, the optimal seed vigor predictive model was defined as <em>V</em> = −0.026 + 0.625 × RSL + 0.485 × RGI. This model revealed that the relative seedling length (RSL) and relative germination index (RGI) had significant positive effects on seed vigor.

Herein, the palmyra fibers were immersed in alkaline solution for different duration (30 minutes, 60 minutes and 120 minutes) to arrive at optimum treatment period. The investigation utilizes XRD, FTIR, SEM and EDS analysis to gain insights into these properties. The findings indicated that the treatment effectively removed excess amorphous components like extractives, hemicellulose and lignin leading to the increase in crystallinity index and surface roughness. The crystallinity index increased by 11 %, 13 % and 23 % for 30 minutes, 60 minutes and 120 minutes treatment respectively. The water absorption of palmyra fibers reduced by 13 %, 14 % and 14 % for 30 minutes, 60 minutes and 120 minutes treatment duration respectively. Additionally, SEM-EDS exhibited best results for 60 min treatment of fibers, with 38 % increase in Oxygen to Carbon ratio of cellulose compared to untreated fibers. Among the different treatment duration, the 60 minutes treatment duration of fibers in 0.5 M sodium hydroxide solution has exhibited considerable enhancement in properties.

Among their diverse traits, the petal blotches significantly contribute to their ornamental value. However, the components and underlying molecular mechanisms regulating rhododendron blotch coloration remain poorly elucidated. In this study, we performed integrative metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses to elucidate the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway in <em>Rhododendron rex</em>, which is differentially activated between the contrasting colored tissues of the petals (blotches versus backgrounds). Flavonoids were identified as the most abundant metabolites in <em>R. rex</em> petals; anthocyanins such as pelargonidin, cyanidin 3,5-di-<em>O</em>-glucoside (cyanin), cyanidin 3-<em>O</em>-glucoside (chrysanthemin), and delphinidin were significantly enriched in the blotch regions when compared to the background counterparts.

Notably, pelargonidin derivatives with antioxidant properties, which are rare in wild rhododendron flowers, were identified in <em>R. rex</em> petals, indicating the potential pharmaceutical value of <em>R. rex</em>. Transcriptomic data revealed that the upregulation of <em>CHS</em>, <em>CHI</em>, <em>F3′5′H</em>, and <em>DFR</em>, alongside the downregulation of <em>HCT</em> and <em>FLS</em>, promoted anthocyanin accumulation in the petal blotches. Furthermore, the combined regulation of flavonoid and lignin biosynthesis by <em>CHS</em> and <em>HCT</em>, as well as that of anthocyanin and flavonols by <em>DFR</em> and <em>FLS</em>, demonstrates that the metabolic balance is maintained through the regulation of the structural gene expression in response to competition for shared precursors involved in the biosynthesis of some secondary metabolites in plants. Moreover, key transcription factors, including <em>bHLH</em>, <em>MYB</em>, <em>WRKY</em>, and <em>bZIP</em>, are correlated with the regulation of anthocyanin biosynthesis.
