Reference genome provide insights into sex determination of silver aworana (Osteoglossum bicirrhosum)

BMC Biology
Background Silver arowana (Osteoglossum bicirrhosum) is a basal fish species with sexual monomorphism, while its sex determination mechanism has been poorly understood, posing a significant challenge to its captive breeding efforts.

How to Chemically Protect PFAS‐Free Membranes in Fuel Cells: Radical Quenching Poly(vinylphosphonic acid) Layer

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Hydrocarbon membranes are a greener alternative to PFSA in PEM fuel cells, but degrade rapidly from radical attack. We present a novel strategy using poly(vinylphosphonic acid) (PVPA) as a local radical scavenger. Incorporated as an interfacial barrier, PVPA enhances chemical stability and significantly extends membrane lifetime under accelerated ...

Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...

Functional characterization of four antimicrobial defensins in the globally invasive pest Tuta (Phthorimaea) absoluta (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae)

Biological Control
Beauveria bassiana and Bacillus thuringiensis are widely utilized entomopathogens for biological control. Insects combat these microbial threats through the activation of innate immune defenses, with antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), particularly defensins,

The Role of TcCYP6K1 and TcCYP9F2 Influences Trehalose Metabolism under High-CO₂ Stress in Tribolium castaneum (Coleoptera)

Insects
Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYP), crucial detoxification enzymes in insects, are involved in the metabolism of endogenous substances as well as the activation and degradation of exogenous compounds. In this study, T.
