Banana (Musa sp.) is a globally prevalent food crop, yielding a substantial quantity annually. The peel, which makes up about one-third of the fruit’s weight, is a wasted byproduct. This waste, which is often ignored, has drawn attention due to the increasing focus on using agricultural byproducts as functional ingredients.

Yielding under drought stress is a highly complex trait which is largely influenced by minor environmental fluctuation. Genomics-assisted breeding holds great promise for improving such complex traits more efficiently in less time, but requires markers associated with the trait of interest.

The optimization of fertilization techniques allows for the attainment of a high-quality and high-yield crop, resulting in economic gains and mitigating any environmental risks. The regulation of nitrogen (N) and sulphur (S) is of paramount importance in wheat cultivation, as both macronutrients play a critical role.

Corn silk has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years, but it is still considered more of an agricultural waste.
