Shiitake mushrooms may be used to produce fuel, with promising prospects
People are all too familiar with the shiitake mushroom as a delicious food, but a latest study in the United States may give this edible fungus a new mission -- one day in the future, shiitake mushrooms may gradually leave people's dining tables and kitchens and find their way into people's car fuel tanks. According to reports, the shiitake mushroom, this delicious fungus, usually grows on felled trees in forests. It breaks down the complex organic matter in wood into sugars and uses them as nutrients to sustain its own growth. At present, the Agricultural Research Service of the United States Department of Agriculture

Large-scale leaf-rolling of the central leaves of rice may be related to excessive application of quinclorac
For some time recently, hundreds of readers across our province have called to report large-scale leaf-rolling of the central leaves of rice seedlings, which is even more common in direct-seeded rice production. Many readers brought in diseased plants. The root systems of the diseased plants are generally fairly normal, and there are no obvious disease spots or other symptoms on the leaves. After examining the submitted diseased plants, relevant experts from the Institute of Plant Protection of the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences and other units preliminarily diagnosed that the leaf-rolling of the central leaves of rice is not caused by viruses or other pathogenic microorganisms, but may be phytotoxicity caused by herbicides such as 2,4-D and quinclorac, or may be caused by physiological

Feeding fish rare earth works well; fish farmers may want to give it a try
Rare earth refers to the collective term for the 17 metallic elements of the lanthanide series in the periodic table, including lanthanum, praseodymium, neodymium, cerium, samarium, and others. Among them, cerium accounts for 48%, lanthanum 25%, neodymium 16%, praseodymium 5%, samarium 2%, and the other 12 elements 4%. In recent years, rare earth has become an important resource for the national economy and national defense construction. It can not only be widely used as an industrial vitamin in metallurgy, machinery, petroleum, chemicals, light industry, electronics and other industries, but can also be used as a micro-fertilizer in agricultural production. In fishery production, feeding rare earth to fish also has very good results. According to experiments,

Wild mushrooms may be developed into anti-cancer drugs
Seemingly ordinary macrofungi, that is, wild mushrooms commonly parasitic on tree trunks, may actually be developed into antibacterial and even anti-cancer drugs. A research team composed of four lecturers and their students from the School of Chemical and Life Sciences at Nanyang Polytechnic in Singapore has, over the past two years, classified and studied more than 400 species of local wild mushrooms, and found that two of them contain anti-cancer compounds and 30 contain antibacterial compounds. At present, they have successfully identified the chemical structure of one wild mushroom with anti-cancer properties, and confirmed
