Weeds biodiversity and maize growth in agro-pastoral integration system by Zhang Yuyang, Wang Junfeng, Sha Zhipeng, Guan Fachun, Duan Jing

“…Reasonable weed management should protect or improve the biodiversity of farmland weed communities for a better ecological environment with not only increasing crop yield, but also reducing use of herbicides.Based on the study of weeds community structure and the agronomic characters of maize in the two production patterns, i. e., “agro-pastoral integration”(hereinafter referred to as API) and conventional maize planting (hereinafter referred to as CK), this paper analyzed the differences of weed species, their functional groups and biodiversity indices before and after grazing. …”

Ethanol extract of propolis relieves exercise-induced fatigue via modulating the metabolites and gut microbiota in mice by Shan Huang, Xiaofei Yang, Jingxuan Ma, Chen Li, Yajing Wang, Zhaoxia Wu

“…Serum metabolomics analysis revealed that EEP reversed the levels of 6 key metabolites (Gamma-Aminobutyric acid, pipecolic acid, L-isoleucine, sucrose, succinic acid, and L-carnitine), which are involved in 7 metabolic pathways related to energy metabolism, amino acid metabolism, and carbohydrate metabolism. 16S rRNA sequencing analysis of the cecal contents showed that EEP altered the composition and structure of the gut microbiota, increasing the abundance of butyrate-producing bacteria and reducing the abundance of harmful bacteria. …”
