Article Abstract
To maximize the production value of Moringa species, there is a need to understand the morphological effect of irrigation frequency and Se fertilizer levels on Moringa species' growth and development. Hence, the aim of this trial was to determine the combined effect of irrigation frequency and Selenium (Se) fertilizer levels on the growth of Moringa oleifera (M. oleifera) and Moringa peregrina (M. peregrina) in the central region of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. A split-plot arrangement was used, where the treatments were arranged in a Completely Randomized Block Design (CRBD) with three replicates, as the study included two plant species (M. oleifera and M. peregrina), four irrigation frequencies (7, 10, 15, and 20 days), and three Se levels (0.0, 12.5 and 25 mg/L foliar spray). M. peregrina showed slow emergence and plant establishment as compared to M. oleifera. The results indicated that plant height, leaves and stems fresh weight increased with the increase in Se level, and were highest when the two plant species were irrigated every 10 days which surpassed all other irrigation frequencies. The findings of this research study indicated that the two Moringa species, particularly M. oleifera could successfully be grown using drip irrigation at a 10-days irrigation frequency.

Introduction: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a common respiratory disease in children and a significant factor in child mortality.
Methodology: We aimed to investigate metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) technology to explore pathogens and epidemiological characteristics of pediatric CAP. We retrospectively analyzed mNGS detection and microbiological culture results of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and sputum samples from children with CAP.

Recently, increasing frequency and severity of drought events have resulted in significant crop yield reductions worldwide, indicating the critical need for innovative agricultural water management strategies to enhance water use efficiency. Addressing this challenge, we present a novel approach involving the strategic placement of highly hydrophobic sand layers below the subrhizosphere. This method utilizes silica sand modified via a facile, single-step surface treatment, yielding a material with strong hydrophobicity, characterized by a static water contact angle of 133.

Numerous foodborne disease outbreaks have been attributed to the consumption of fresh produce contaminated with foodborne pathogens. Contaminated irrigation water is a well-established source of bacterial and viral contamination during primary production and is frequently responsible for the contamination of fresh produce. However, efficient methods for the simultaneous detection of bacterial and viral pathogens present in irrigation water are still scarce.

Introduction: Our experimental study aimed to evaluate the impact of four power settings with different energy and frequency combinations on the irrigation fluid temperature using the thulium fiber laser (TFL). In addition, we aimed to identify the differences between the Ho: YAG laser and TFL by direct comparison of the same power settings.
Material And Methods: All measurements were performed with a fluid volume fixed at 10 ml and an outflow rate at 10 ml/min.
