Abstract This review examines the presence and evolution of thyroid‐like systems in selected aquatic invertebrates to determine the potential use of these organisms in screens for vertebrate thyroid hormone axis disrupting chemicals (THADCs). Such a screen might support the phasing out of some vertebrate testing.

Over two decades of research on the marine RNA virosphere
Advances in meta‐omics provide a surge of marine RNA virus information. Deep marine virus discovery contributes greatly to the megataxonomy of RNA viruses. Understanding diversity and biogeography helps reveal the significance of marine RNA viruses, including evolutionary trajectories, hierarchical taxonomy, and ecological importance.

Mobilizing mine lands for biobased decarbonization strategies
Abstract Over 163 000 ha of mine lands in Pennsylvania (PA) have the potential to produce willow as a feedstock for renewable energy generation. Each year these lands could produce between 454 000 and 907 000 dry Mg of willow, which can be a feedstock for bioenergy (i.e., biopower) with carbon capture and sequestration (BECCS) or sustainable aviation ...

Neither, either, or both? Who sees GM and non‐GM food labels?
Abstract The US National Bioengineered Food Disclosure Standard mandates disclosures on foods containing genetically modified (GM) ingredients, while allowing voluntary non‐GM claims to coexist in the marketplace. Using cross‐sectional survey data, accounting for error term correlation and controlling for demographic variability, we describe the types ...
