FRIEND OR FOE-LIGHT AVAILABILITY DETERMINES THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MYCORRHIZAL FUNGI, RHIZOBIA AND LIMA BEAN (PHASEOLUS LUNATUS L.).

Friend or Foe-Light Availability Determines the Relationship between Mycorrhizal Fungi, Rhizobia and Lima Bean (Phaseolus lunatus L.).

Plant associations with root microbes represent some of the most Shorts important symbioses on earth.While often critically promoting plant fitness, nitrogen-fixing rhizobia and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) also demand significant carbohydrate allocation in exchange for key nutrients.Though plants may often compensate for carbon loss, constra

A Comparative Study of Machine Learning Techniques for Predicting Mechanical Properties of Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM)-Based 3D-Printed Wood/PLA Biocomposite

Wood/PLA biocomposite filament is a 3D printing material that blends Polylactic Acid (PLA), a biopolymer, with wood powder acting as reinforcement.This combination results in a sustainable 3D printing filament that has grown in popularity in recent years due to its eco-friendliness and the natural appearance of 3D-printed parts.To assess the suitab

Entropy analysis and unsteady MHD mixed convection stagnation-point flow of Casson nanofluid around a rotating sphere

The current perusal introduces a numerical analysis to Shorts point out the flow of MHD conjugate forced and free convection with entropy generation analysis due to non-Newtonian Cassonnanofluid around a rotating sphere with convective boundary conditions.Two-phase flow of nanofluid model is employed for the problem under consideration.Both the vel

Importance of long-term earthquake, tsunami and tropical cyclone data for disaster risk reduction in Bangladesh

Bangladesh is vulnerable to a variety of natural hazards including frequent tropical cyclones and, less commonly, earthquakes and tsunamis.The 1762 event is often cited as evidence for these latter hazard types.Remarkably, few historical data are available to help contribute to disaster risk reduction in Bangladesh.This paper addresses this gap by
