Factors Regulating Symbiotic Nitrogen Fixation Efficiency in Legume Crops: Mechanisms, Environmental Constraints, and Future Perspectives

Symbiotic nitrogen fixation (SNF) is a fundamental biological process that enhances legume productivity while reducing dependence on synthetic nitrogen fertilizers. However, its efficiency varies considerably across production systems because it is regulated by complex interactions among plant genetics, rhizobial compatibility, physiological processes, environmental conditions, and agronomic management. This review synthesizes current knowledge on the mechanisms […]

Organic vs. Inorganic Fertilizers: A Review on Sustainable Mung Bean Production under Kabul Semi‑Arid Conditions

Mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) is a short‑duration legume of high nutritional and agronomic importance, particularly suited to semi‑arid regions such as Kabul, Afghanistan. Despite its potential, mung bean productivity in Afghanistan remains below global averages, constrained by poor soil fertility, limited varietal development, and inadequate crop management practices. This review synthesizes Kabul University research […]

Effects of Irrigation Intervals on the Growth and Yield of Flax under Kabul Climate Conditions

Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) is an important oilseed and fiber crop with significant economic value. Efficient irrigation management is essential for improving crop productivity under the semi-arid conditions of Kabul, where water resources are limited. However, information on the optimum irrigation interval for flax production in this region is scarce. This field experiment was conducted […]

Soybean Growth and Yield Response to Fertilizers: A Comparative Review of Organic and Inorganic Inputs under Kabul Semi‑Arid Conditions

Soybean (Glycine max L.) is a globally important crop valued for its high protein and oil content, yet its productivity in Afghanistan remains constrained by poor soil fertility and reliance on chemical fertilizers. This review article synthesizes experimental evidence on the comparative effects of organic inputs (night soil, farm manure) and inorganic fertilizers (diammonium phosphate, […]

Physicochemical Quality of Lamb Se’i Treated with Kusambi (Schleichera oleosa) Liquid Smoke

This study aimed was to determine the effect kusambi (Schleichera oleosa) wood liquid smoke on the physicochemical quality of Lamb se’i (smoked meat). A Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with a 4 x 4 layout was employed, consisting of four treatments: P0: control/no liquid smoke, P1: 0.5% liquid smoke, P2: 1.0% liquid smoke, and P3 : […]

Role of Fast Neutrons in Minor Actinide Transmutation and Long-Lived Radioactive Waste Reduction in Lead Cooled Fast Reactor: A Systematic Review

The long-term sustainability of nuclear energy relies on the safe management of minor actinides (MAs) and long-lived fission products (LLFPs). The present work aims at systematically evaluating the role of the fast neutron spectrum in the nuclear transmutation of these isotopes in the Lead-cooled Fast Reactors (LFRs) to support the realization of a closed fuel […]

From Transparency to Accountability: A Review of Measurement Approaches in Vietnamese Higher Education

Accountability has become a central condition of university autonomy, yet it is often measured through its most visible component: publicly available information. This critical narrative review examines how accountability has been conceptualised and measured in higher education and considers the implications for Vietnam during the transition from Circular 36/2017/TT-BGDDT to Circular 09/2024/TT-BGDDT. The review synthesises […]

Effects of Different Rates of Potassium Application on Growth and Yield of Soybean

Soybean is an important legume crop valued for its high protein and oil content, but its productivity is often limited by poor soil fertility and environmental stresses. This study aimed to determine the optimum potassium application rate for improving soybean growth and yield under the agroecological conditions of Kabul, Afghanistan. A field experiment was conducted […]

Psychometric Evaluation of an Applied Mathematics Examination Instrument Based on The Rasch Model

Administering the same examination to students from different programs can result in uneven measurement of competence and potentially flawed academic decisions. In many vocational settings, psychometric reviews of examination instruments are uncommon, increasing the risk of inaccurate evaluation. This study investigates the Applied Mathematics Final Semester Examination (FSE) instruments in the Mechanical Engineering Department, Bali […]

The Effects of AI-Enhanced Task-Based Language Teaching on Tenth Graders’ English-Speaking Skills: A Study at a High School

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into English language teaching has created more opportunities for students to help them enhance their English-speaking skills. The study aimed to investigate the effects of AI-enhanced Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) on the English-speaking skills of tenth graders and to explore their perceptions of AI-supported task-based speaking activities at a […]
