Impact of Low Light on Photosynthetic Characteristics, Antioxidant Activity, and Yield of <i>Brassica napus</i> L. by Yue Hu, Hafiz Hassan Javed, Li Liu, Yalong Liu, Xiaohui Yang, Feifei Xu, Ying Liu, Xiao Peng, Yongcheng Wu

“…According to the study results, low light reduces key photosynthetic enzymes and sucrose synthase activity in rapeseed leaves, leading to a decrease in leaf carbohydrate accumulation. The reduced number of pods per plant and the number of pods per grain are the direct factors leading to the decrease in rapeseed grain yield, while the increase in grain weight compensates for some of the yield loss. …”

Crosstalk between the Ketogenic Diet and Epilepsy: From the Perspective of Gut Microbiota by Yuying Fan, Hua Wang, Xueyan Liu, Junmei Zhang, Gang Liu

“…An example of one such diet is the ketogenic diet (KD), which promotes a diet that contains high levels of fat, adequate levels of protein, and low levels of carbohydrate. Due to the near-total elimination of carbohydrates from the individual’s food in this ultra-high-fat diet, ketone bodies become an important source of energy. …”
