Functional characterization of antennae-enriched chemosensory protein 4 in emerald ash borer, Agrilus planipennis [PDF]
PeerJAgrilus planipennis is an invasive species that inflicts substantial harm on ash trees (Fraxinus spp.) globally. Elucidating its olfactory mechanisms is essential for devising effective pest management approaches.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Multi‐trait genome‐wide association mapping identifies a central hub regulator, COLD AND CATECHINS REGULATOR 1 (CCR1), and its excellent natural allele variation, coordinately enhancing cold tolerance and promoting catechins biosyntheis. CsCCR1 interacts with CsCBF1/3 and is transcriptionally activated by CsLUX and CsKUA1 to promote catechins ...

Multi step selection in Ig H chains is initially focused on CDR3 and then on other CDR regions.
Frontiers in Immunology, 2013 Affinity maturation occurs through two selection processes: the choice of appropriate clones (clonal selection), and the internal evolution within clones, induced by somatic hyper-mutations, where high affinity mutants are selected for.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Conventional single‐gradient freeze‐casting typically produces unidirectional porous architectures with limited transverse connectivity. The Sequential Hybridization by Infiltration and Freeze‐casting Technique (SHIFT) addresses this constraint by integrating secondary aligned structures within a preformed primary scaffold.

GPR50 is the mammalian ortholog of Mel1c: Evidence of rapid evolution in mammals
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2008 Background The melatonin receptor subfamily contains three members Mel1a, Mel1b and Mel1c, found in all vertebrates except for Mel1c which is found only in fish, Xenopus species and the chicken.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Glucose deprivation in the primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL) tumor microenvironment drives SLC2A5 (encoding GLUT5)‐dependent fructose metabolism in tumor cells, while hypoxia induces HIF‐mediated SLC2A5 expression in tumor‐supportive macrophages, revealing SLC2A5‐driven fructose utilization as a shared and targetable metabolic vulnerability across malignant

Advanced Science, EarlyView.As a pilot phase of the Central Asian Genomic Diversity Project, whole‐genome sequencing of 166 individuals from 20 Central Asian and Afghan Hazara populations reveals fine‐scale substructure shaped by repeated trans‐Eurasian migration and admixture. Integrated analyses uncover post‐admixture adaptation, archaic introgression, and medically relevant ...

Leaf trait variations associated with habitat affinity of tropical karst tree species
Ecology and Evolution, 2018 Karst hills, that is, jagged topography created by dissolution of limestone and other soluble rocks, are distributed extensively in tropical forest regions, including southern parts of China. They are characterized by a sharp mosaic of water and nutrient

On the Genetic Affinity of Individual Tree Biomass Allometry in Poplar Short Rotation Coppice
BioEnergy Research, 2017 Woody biomass is one of our main resources available to enhance the bio-economy, but its production varies considerably depending on the species, the environment and crop management. The variability associated with these crops complicates the estimation of biomass through prediction models.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study presents a computational tunnel engineering strategy in Fe(II)/α‐ketoglutarate‐dependent dioxygenases (αKGDs) to enhance oxygen (O2) transport, an essential molecule for αKGDs, and limit hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) entry, an inhibitor from the αKG supply system.
