Promoting the integrated development of rural industries represents a crucial pathway for accelerating the modernization of the entire industrial chain and consolidating and enhancing agricultural resilience. This study constructs provincial-level panel data for China spanning 2012-2022 and employs a multidimensional, visualization-based, and spatial research paradigm to comprehensively examine the impact effects and mechanisms through which rural industrial integration empowers agricultural resilience in China. The findings reveal that, first, rural industrial integration can effectively enhance agricultural resilience levels, with stable economic returns and diversified functional development serving as key pathways for improving agricultural resilience. Second, the eastern and western regions have unleashed agricultural resilience potential through superior policy and environmental advantages, while the relatively homogeneous grain structure and path dependence in the central and northeastern regions have prevented agricultural industrial integration from effectively achieving expected outcomes. Third, structural rationalization has improved resource allocation efficiency, but industrial structure advancement and industrial structure sophistication have actually diminished the enhancement effects on agricultural resilience. Fourth, urbanization has led to adverse resource competition, reducing the positive impact of rural industrial integration on agricultural resilience levels. Fifth, the enhancement of agricultural resilience through rural industrial integration demonstrates geographically-distant resource spillover effects to neighboring regions. This research provides an important theoretical framework and practical paradigm for global agricultural transformation, offering particularly significant strategic guidance for developing countries in building resilient agricultural systems, addressing climate change impacts, and ensuring food security.

Legumes are essential for agriculture and food security. Biotic and abiotic stresses pose significant challenges to legume production, lowering productivity levels. Most legumes must be genetically improved by introducing alleles that give pest and disease resistance, abiotic stress adaptability, and high yield potential.

The One Health Joint Plan of Action (2022-2026), developed by the United Nations Quadripartite (FAO, UNEP, WHO, and WOAH), provides a comprehensive framework to address global health risks at the human-animal-plant-environment interface. However, it overlooks the critical role of microbiomes-complex microbial communities that underpin the health of all ecosystems and are central to the One Health paradigm. Microbiomes regulate key processes, such as nutrient cycling, pathogen suppression, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) dynamics, and environmental resilience, making their inclusion essential for achieving One Health goals.

The increasing demand for sustainable agricultural practices has driven a renewed interest in plant-microbiome interactions as a basis for the next "green revolution." Central to these interactions are root-derived metabolites that act as mediators of microbial recruitment and function. Plants exude a chemically diverse array of compounds that influence the assembly, composition, and stability of the root microbiome.

Background: India's indigenous sheep breeds have evolved under extreme and diverse agro-ecological pressures, yet the genomic basis of their resilience and local adaptation remains poorly understood.
Method: This study combines genomic inbreeding estimates, runs of homozygosity (ROH), population structure analyses, and composite selection scans to investigate three native Indian breeds-Changthangi, Deccani, and Garole-within a panel of nine breeds that also includes populations from Africa (Ethiopian Menz), East and South Asia (Tibetan, Chinese Merino, Bangladesh Garole, Bangladesh East), and Europe (Suffolk).
Results: ROH and heterozygosity estimates revealed strong contrasts: Bangladesh East sheep exhibited high genomic inbreeding (F≈14.

Introduction: Transcription factors (TFs) are essential regulators of gene expression, orchestrating plant growth, development, and responses to environmental stress. , a halophytic species renowned for its exceptional salt resistance, provides an ideal model for investigating the regulatory mechanisms underlying salt tolerance.
Methods: Here, we present a comprehensive genome-wide identification and characterization of TFs in .
