Bio‐Inspired, Zwitterionic Copolymers with Amphiphilic Character

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Zwitterionic copolymers based on arginine‐derived monomers are produced by xanthate‐supported photo‐iniferter reversible‐addition‐fragmentation chain‐transfer polymerization. Experiments in relevant conditions show that the designed (co)polymers hardly interact with biologically relevant proteins and enzymes such as bovine serum albumine (BSA), fetal ...

Low‐Hysteresis Cellulose‐Based Hydrogels for Strain Detecting

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Low‐hysteresis hydrogel with high cellulose content is prepared. The modified cellulose is prepared through a sequential periodate oxidation and borohydride reduction process. The hydrogel can be used as a strain sensor with a gauge factor of 1.1 in the 0%–300% sensing range.

Non‐Cyclic Rozanolixizumab Administration in Complex Generalized Myasthenia Gravis

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Rozanolixizumab, an inhibitor of the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn), is used to treat patients with generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) refractory to standard therapies. However, the approved six‐week cyclic regimen may be associated with a “wearing‐off” effect and disease fluctuations. We evaluated the non‐cyclic administration

A step into the shadows: Evolutionary shifts in fruit structure and dispersal strategies in Asian mycoheterotrophic Ericaceae

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
This study examines how the fruits of non‐photosynthetic forest plants in the Monotropoideae (Ericaceae) have evolved into the diversity observed today. By analyzing four Asian species, we identified a shift from dry, dehiscent fruits that release seeds into the air to fleshy, berry‐like fruits adapted for animal dispersal.

Genotype‐by‐environment interaction informs selection for seed physiological quality and stink bug tolerance in soybean under pest management contrasts

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Genotype‐by‐environment interaction shaped soybean seed stability under contrasting insecticide regimes. Seed longevity emerged as a stable, management‐relevant trait under pest pressure. High‐pressure, no‐insecticide conditions improved discrimination of tolerant genotypes for integrated pest management deployment.

Microbiome‐mediated chemical communication in insects: Implications for pest management

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Microbiome–semiochemical interactions involve the following processes: direct microbial synthesis, host gene regulation, precursor biotransformation, microbiome modulation and indirect ecological signaling. Abstract Insects rely on semiochemicals to regulate aggregation, mating, foraging, and host selection. This review synthesizes evidence that insect‐

Contract Farming and Children's Education: Evidence From Maize Producers in Ghana

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The institution of contract farming (CF) has continued to proliferate in the small farm sector of developing countries. While its effects on smallholders across welfare outcomes such as income and food security have been well documented, there are growing concerns about its broader social implications especially on children.
