Overreliance on Orthographic Similarity in L2‐Japanese Conceptual Processing by L1‐Chinese Learners

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Orthographic and phonological similarities between first (L1) and second (L2) languages can facilitate L2 processing. Particularly, L1‐Chinese learners of L2‐Japanese can benefit from the shared morphosyllabic Chinese characters (Japanese kanji/Chinese hanzi) because of their similar orthographies.

Multi‐Functional S‐HA/ASTA NPs Coating on Biodegradable ZE21B Alloy for Cerebrovascular Applications

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys have attracted extensive attention of researchers in the field of cerebrovascular implants due to their good mechanical properties and biosafety. However, rapid degradation and delayed endothelialization pose challenges. To address these issues, this study introduces a multifunctional composite coating.

SWEET1‐mediated glucose transport is crucial for energy availability in Arabidopsis

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 1816-1830, February 2026.
Summary The stress‐responsive hormone abscisic acid (ABA) is known for its inhibitory effects on various physiological processes, including seed germination, often resulting in energy deprivation. Interestingly, ABA‐induced germination inhibition can be alleviated by exogenous glucose (Glc), mimicking a functional interplay between ABA and sugar ...

Root cell wall plasticity in iron homeostasis: an overlooked frontier in plant nutrition

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 1699-1708, February 2026.
Summary Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development, yet its availability in soils is often limited or excessive, leading to widespread Fe deficiency or toxicity that constrains crop productivity. While Fe uptake, transport, and signaling pathways have been well characterized, the role of the root cell wall as a dynamic ...

Development of a Four‐Language Questionnaire to Investigate Environmental Risk Factors for the Development of Canine Atopic Dermatitis and to Monitor Disease Course and Progression

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 34-44, February 2026.
Background: The chronic and multifactorial character of canine atopic dermatitis (cAD) often leads to poor disease control and treatment dissatisfaction. Environmental factors are likely to contribute to the disease development and may play a more important role than assumed previously.

Decoupling the Roles of Corticosterone in Mediating Effects of Methylmercury and Chytrid Fungus (Bd) on Amphibian Survival 解构皮质酮在介导甲基汞与壶菌 (Bd) 对两栖动物生存影响中的双重作用

open access: yesWildlife Letters, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 143-151, December 2025.
Effects of methylmercury bioaccumulation on survival of Columbia Spotted Frogs were modified by sex and length and were mediated by corticosterone (a glucocorticoid hormone) whereas effects of chytrid fungus were limited. ABSTRACT Amphibians have suffered widespread declines caused by many interacting factors whose effects are often difficult to ...

Physiological roles of lignins – tuning cell wall hygroscopy and biomechanics

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 6, Page 2674-2706, December 2025.
Summary Lignins constitute the second most abundant carbon‐storing biopolymers in the biosphere. These phenolic polymers accumulate in different concentrations, compositions, and localisations within and between cell wall layers and cell types. Lignins were acquired during plant terrestrialisation 450 million years ago, and the diversification of their

Decay stages of Jurassic wood debris from Scotland: evidence for the coevolution of fungal rot, arthropods and the nurse log strategy

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 3, Page 1557-1571, November 2025.
Summary A key feature of extant conifer forests is the high percentage of seeds that germinate and establish on dead wood; in some forests, this can exceed 90%. This deadwood can act as an ideal nursery for young tree species, leading to this type of seedbed being termed ‘nurse logs’.

Validation of the Equine Urticaria Activity Score for the assessment of chronic recurrent urticaria in horses

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 36, Issue 5, Page 630-637, October 2025.
Background – Recurrent urticaria is common in horses. The pathophysiology is poorly understood and treatment options are limited. Often only glucocorticoids are effective for controlling clinical signs, albeit with potential adverse effects. Studies investigating new treatments need a validated objective scoring system for the grading of skin lesions ...

Dermoscopic evaluation of normal canine skin with a handheld dermoscope

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 36, Issue 5, Page 593-601, October 2025.
Background – Dermoscopy is a noninvasive diagnostic tool that provides a magnified view of skin structures. While dermoscopy is described for certain canine dermatological diseases, large‐scale studies evaluating normal skin are lacking. Hypothesis/Objective – This study aimed to correlate dermoscopic findings with histopathological results in healthy ...
