The genus Crataegus (hawthorn), belonging to the subfamily Maloideae in the Rosaceae family, has a long history of cultivation in China because of its important medicinal values. we carried out a phylogenetic reconstruction with nuclear (ITS) and three intergenic chloroplast DNA sequences (trnH-trnK, trnG-trnS, and psbAtrnH) data using ML and MP to estimate the genetic relationships, chloroplast haplotypes, and the origin of 17 species and 108 accessions of Crataegus and the attribution of some unsubstantiated resources in China. Malus baccata L. and Malus pumila L. were used as outgroups taxa. We further analyzed the basic phylogenetic framework of the genus. Our analyses produced multiple outcomes: (1) Crataegus in northern and southern China were divided into two branches, which had their respective origin relations and different speciation events. Crataegus might have originated in Europe and North America; (2) the classification of most samples based on the molecular data was in good agreement with the morphological classification. However, incongruence between the chloroplast and nuclear data supported the hypothesis of a hybrid origin for Crataegus brettschneideri Schneid, with Crataegus maximowiczii Schneid or its ancestor as the maternal parent and Crataegus pinnatifida Bunge as the male parent; (3) Chloroplast haplotypes and haplotype network graph analyses revealed 15 haplotypes among the specimens. H12 (Crataegus cuneata Sieb.) was a chloroplast ancestral haplotype of Crataegus in southern China, and H14 might be the direct origin haploid of the Pinnatifidae group.

Nitrogen fertilization is key to improve crop yield. However, due to the harmful environmental effects of fertilizers, farmers and governments are searching agronomic practices that provide nutrients to the crops with minimal environmental impact, as for example the use of nitrification inhibitors. These compounds act on ammonium reducing its oxidation to nitrate, and soil´s nitrogen remains longer in the form of ammonium helping prevent nitrate lixiviation. The objective of the experiment was to evaluate the effect of a new nitrification inhibitor (DMPSA) in almond trees. We studied the effect of three solutions on vegetative growth, nutrition, and physiology on Alvijor almond plants irrigated with one of three possible study solutions i) 3:1 nitrate:ammonium rate solution ii) 1:1 nitrate:ammonium rate solution, or iii) 1:1 nitrate:ammonium rate solution plus a nitrification inhibitor (3,4-dimethylpyrazolesuccinic acid). Plants were grown in a greenhouse in calcareous and alkaline soil from the Spanish Levante area. Macro and micronutrients were determined from drainage samples collected throughout the experiment. At the end of the experiment, gaseous exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters were measured and plants harvested to analyse morphological characteristics (leaf, stem and root fresh and dry weight, aerial part rate, and trunk diameter) and N, P, K, Ca, and Mg content in the leaves. We found higher levels of ammonium and lower nitrates in the roots and higher vegetative growth with the irrigation solution containing the nitrification inhibitor in comparison with treatment solutions 1:1 and 3:1. The drainage showed that NI reduces the level of nitrates in the leachate, limiting its discharge to the subsoil. In conclusion, the nutrient solution with the nitrification inhibitor has a positive impact on Alvijor almond plants and the environment.

China has been the second largest mango cultivation country in the world in 2020.Mango has become the main source of income for mango farmers in some southern provinces and regions such as Guangxi, Yunnan, Hainan and Sichuan. At present, there are more than 40 different varieties cultivated in China. Through the combination of varieties and different climatic regions, and the adoption of comprehensive technical measures such as moving the harvest time forward and postponing the harvest time, China has become the only country in the world that can produce mango annually. At the same time, China has widely adopted a series of technical measures, such as topworking, bagging, integrated disease and pest control, water and fertilizer integration, intercropping cultivation and so on, which has significantly improved the quality of mango fruit, increased its market competitiveness，which can not only meet the domestic market, but also export to foreign countries. In the future, China will further improve the quality of fresh mango fruits, increase the proportion of processed products, and increase the income of mango practitioners.

In temperate climates, insects survive the winter in a coldinvulnerable stage. The timing of individual stages of insects is influenced by temperature (which will increase with climate change) and the photoperiod (which will remain unchanged). Therefore, the mechanical application of the sums of temperatures will not make it possible to predict the seasonal development of insects in the event of climate change. The aim of this paper was to assess a possible shift of the development of forest phytophagous insects with different types of seasonal development under climate change. Calculations are made for foliage-browsing insects in Kharkiv region (northeastern part of Ukraine). Temperature data were taken from archives and predicted temperature from reference. Our classification of foliage browsing insects by the types of seasonal development considering voltinism, hibernating stage, and summer diapause was used. The deadlines for the development of individual stages of insects were analyzed considering the type of seasonal development, the deadlines of the appearance after hibernation, and the termination of active development in autumn. The dependences of insect development from temperature were used. Analysis shows that the changes in the timing and rate of development of phytophages will depend on the type of seasonal development. Phytophagous species of the temperate zone, which are now monovoltine throughout the range, will remain so after global warming. Foliage-browsing species will accelerate the development of spring and early summer stages (before the summer solstice) and slow down the development of late summer and autumn stages, which will ensure the wintering of the most protected individuals. Foliage-browsing species capable of bivoltinous development within the current range will maintain this trend, but a further increase in the number of generations will be hindered by the photoperiodic response. Xylophages capable of bivoltine and multivoltine development can increase the number of generations. At the same time, due to the uneven development of insects in different parts of the tree and the stand, some individuals will hibernate in a stage that cannot withstand the cold.

This study aimed to measure concentrations of selected essential and toxic elements (Ag, Al, As, Ba, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Li, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Ni, Pb, Sb, Se, Sr, Zn) in animal tissues of sheep originating from the area with a slightly environmental burden (Horehronie region) and undisturbed area (Orava region) in Slovakia. Liver, kidney, mammary gland, and muscle from 22 ewes for two consecutive years (2020 and 2021) were analysed by an inductively-coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry. Various concentrations of monitored elements were obtained after subjecting the results to statistical analysis. Contents of five toxic elements (arsenic, cobalt, nickel, lead, antimony), and chrome and selenium, were below the detection limits. Content of cadmium exceeded the maximum permissible level in kidneys from the slightly disturbed area. Although the content of copper did not exceed the permissible limit, the concentration of Cu was higher in the liver in both areas in 2021 compared to the results from other studies. The concentration of lithium in the kidney, liver, and muscle from the Orava region was significantly (P < 0.05) higher than that of the Horehronie region. Concentrations of Mg, Ag, Cd, Mo, and Zn were significantly (P < 0.05) higher in samples from region Horehronie than that in the Orava region. Statistically significant differences (P < 0.05) were noted between concentrations of K, Li, and Mo in kidneys; Fe, K, and Li in the mammary gland; Cu, Zn in the liver and Mn in muscles of sheep across the reference years. In summary, monitoring the occurrence of elements found in commonly consumed dietary raw materials contributes to ensuring the quality and safety of food. Most of the tissue samples analysed are relatively safe for regular human consumption. However, the concentrations of Cd in the kidneys from the slightly disturbed area and potentially Cu in the liver from both areas pose a health risk for the consumers.

Urban Agriculture has always been an important part of society as it is responsible for producing essential food crops, which are essential in maintaining food security and nutrition. It also provides livelihood opportunities to many people. An important factor in farming and gardening is soil quality. Soils supply the essential nutrients, water, oxygen, and root support that our food-producing plants need to grow and flourish. This study aimed to analyze the chemical properties of the soil in Barangay Lucnab, Baguio City, as well as the presence of macronutrients and micronutrients. This research is important as it aims to assist the residents of Lucnab, given their present predicament of the low harvest and seemingly acidic soil, to maximize the nutrients already present in the farm and recommend the right amount of fertilizer and crops to plant to enhance productivity. And it is, therefore, the aim of this study to educate the community on how to maximize the potential of their farm. The research design used in this study was descriptive and experimental. The descriptive and experimental types of research sought to determine the characteristics of the soil sample in Barangay Lucnab through the manipulation of variables. They compared the results to a standard value. The sampling method used in collecting the soil was the zigzag sampling pattern. This method is adopted from the work of Ackerson (2018). Significant findings of this research revealed that the soil has low moisture content at values ranging from 27.26% to 33.60%. The soil is strongly acidic as the pH reading ranged from 4.1 to 4.83. Furthermore, the two sampling sites in Lucnab show a low organic matter with a value from 2.71% to 3.45%, while Purok 4A reveals a better nitrogen content. The levels of micronutrients such as phosphorous and potassium are above the optimum level, with the presence of micronutrients like zinc, copper, iron, and manganese. The results imply that the soil's acidity in Barangay Lucnab may affect the availability and solubility of some plant's nutrients as minerals are insoluble in acidic soil. This will greatly affect the harvest and productivity of the farmers. Therefore, it is recommended to correct the soil's pH and constantly irrigate the farms to help sustain the growth and development of the crops being grown in the said barangay. In the context of the results and analyses of the soil samples gathered in Barangay Lucnab, the researchers organized and conducted training and seminar to the community to correct the pH of the soil by adding lime and applying fertilizer before planting. Appropriate seeds were also distributed to the barangay.

Coffee is one of the plantation commodities in Indonesia which acts as a source of foreign exchange and is a source of income for one and a half coffee farmers. One of the regions in Indonesia possessing abundant coffee resources is Madiun Regency especially Kare Village. UMKM Kopi Kare produces three types of coffee products, specifically robusta, robusta lanang, and arabica. In order to determine the characteristics of the 3 coffee variants produced by UMKM Kopi Kare, an analysis of antioxidants and phytochemical compounds were carried out. Antioxindant activity was analyzed using DPPH method and phytochemical compounds were analyzed using qualitative method. Based on the antioxidant test results, robusta 83.41 ± 2.64%, robusta lanang 84.71 ± 3.45%, and arabica 84.32 ± 2.66%. The results of the phytochemical test showed that the three variants of UMKM Kopi Kare contained phytochemical compounds including flavonoids, saponins, tannins, and alkaloids.
