Flax-sesame crop rotation is an effective phytoremediation method for cadmium (Cd)-contaminated farmland. To investigate the effect of drainage on the uptake efficiency of soil Cd by the crops, field experiments were conducted to analyze the migration of Cd, iron (Fe), and manganese (Mn), and the soil microbial community. Compared with conventional drainage, the deep furrow treatment increased the Cd^2 + accumulated in the flax and sesame organs by up to 73.9 % and decreased the soil Cd²⁺ content by 4.7 %-7.7 %. The accumulation of Fe²⁺/Fe³⁺ and Mn²⁺ showed the same trend as that of Cd. In the soil, deep furrow drainage increased the bioavailability of Cd²⁺, Mn²⁺ and Fe²⁺/Fe³⁺, while decreased the content of Fe-Mn oxide-bound Cd²⁺ and that of amorphous Fe²⁺/Fe³⁺ oxide by up to 13.3 %, indicating that changes in Fe morphology was highly related with the Cd availability. Further sequencing of the soil microbial community found that deep furrow drainage increased the relative abundance of Fe-redox bacteria Acidobacteria, Comamonas, Flavobacterium, Saccharimonadales, and Novosphingobium by up to 45.8 %, 63.7 %, 1204.1 %, 61.2 % and 93.5 % at the mature stage, respectively. And the relative abundance of other siderophore-secreting bacteria, including Lysobacter and Burkholderiales, increased by up to 85.2 % and 41.6 %, respectively. These findings indicated that the activation of key Fe-associated bacteria facilitated ferrolysis, playing a crucial role in enhancing Fe bioavailability and mitigating the immobilization effect of Fe²⁺/Fe³⁺ oxides on Cd²⁺ in soil. The implementation of deep furrow drainage significantly increased soil Cd²⁺ availability and enhanced Cd²⁺ uptake efficiency in the flax-sesame rotation system.

Plant-based cream is a research focus in the food industry for its health attributes and sustainability advantages, yet it faces technical bottlenecks in whipping performance, fat crystal network formation, and storage stability. Sugarcane wax (SW), with excellent nucleation capacity and β′ polymorph-inducing properties, is an ideal functional component. This study systematically investigated the regulatory effects of SE-11 concentration, oil-water ratio, and solid fat content on O/W emulsions, using molecular docking to elucidate interactions among SE-11, SW, and TAG. Results showed SE-11 binds TAG with a binding energy of -5.6 kcal/mol (H-bond length: 2.1-2.8 Å); 3.0-3.5 wt.% SE-11 and φ=0.10-0.15 optimize system stability, while SW accelerates lipid crystallization via heterogeneous nucleation. Increased G′ after 30-day storage confirms their synergistic effect, providing molecular-level support for optimizing plant-based whipped cream.
