Dorper rams (n = 24) were evaluated during the sexual resting season to determine their social rank (SR), either high (HSR) or low (LSR), under intensive management conditions in northern Mexico (25° N). Aggressive behaviors were quantified during male-to-male interactions, and appetitive and consummatory sexual behaviors during male-to-female inte...

Grapes are one of the most cultivated fruits in the world. Concomitantly, a large amount of waste is generated from this product. Grape pomace (GP) flour can be used as an increment for making new food products. GP is rich in fibers and phenolic compounds, and in addition could be used to reduce agro-industrial residues. Thus, the objective of this...

China is one of the largest rice producers in the world, and rice production plays an important role in food security. Currently, arsenic pollution in paddy soils is one of most serious soil pollutions in China. Since paddy soils are maintained in a flooding anoxic condition for long periods, the rate and extent of arsenic transformation processes ...

Integrated ecological farming combines rice growing with aquaculture, and is an effective way to improve soil productivity by increasing soil nutrient supply. However, the long-term effects of such integrated farming on phosphorus fractions and phosphorus availability of paddy soils in the Pearl River Delta (PRD) remain unknown. A four-year field e...

Microplastics (MPs), as new pollutants in agroecosystems, have already attracted widespread attention from scientists. However, our understanding of MP geographic distribution and its influencing factors across spatial scales remains poor. Here, a regional-scale field investigation was conducted to assess the distribution characteristic of MPs in f...

Maintaining rice yield, soil function, and fertility are essential components of long-term compost fertilization. However, paddy fields are major sources of anthropogenic methane emissions. The aim of the study is to evaluate the changes in soil chemical properties and their concurrent impact on the abundance of methanogenesis (mcrA) and methane ox...

Chromium (Cr) contamination in paddy soil-rice systems threatens human health through the food chain. This study used a new dataset of 500 paddy soil and plant tissue samples collected in the rice-growing regions of Sindh and Punjab Provinces of Pakistan. Overall, 97.4% of grain samples exceeded the Cr threshold values of 1.0 mg kg-1, determined by...

Paddy soils are globally distributed and saturated with water long term, which is different from most terrestrial ecosystems. To better understand the environmental risks of antibiotics in paddy soils, this study chose sulfadiazine (SDZ) as a typical antibiotic. We investigated its adsorption behavior and the influence of soil solution properties, ...

Straw returning to fields is a common agricultural practice for enhancing soil fertility and organic matter, although it induces substantial CH4 emissions from flooded paddy soils. The characteristics of long-term periodic management of irrigation and drainage intensely affect the redox cycling of iron in paddy soil and could be one of the major fa...
