Mosquitoes on a chip—environmental DNA-based detection of invasive mosquito species using high-throughput real-time PCR [PDF]

PeerJ
The monitoring of mosquitoes is of great importance due to their vector competence for a variety of pathogens, which have the potential to imperil human and animal health. Until now mosquito occurrence data is mainly obtained with conventional monitoring

Distribution and Species Richness of Benthic Polychaeta and Sipuncula in the Northwestern Pacific

Diversity, 2023
Polychaeta and Sipuncula are abundant inhabitants of benthic marine habitats and have been increasingly sampled in the Northwest Pacific (NWP). However, polychaete and sipunculan species richness, composition, and distribution patterns still require ...

Clinical Characteristics and Prognostic Risk Factors for Pediatric B‐Cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma: A Multicenter Retrospective Cohort Study for China Net Childhood Lymphoma

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background B‐cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (B‐LBL) represents a rare variety of non‐Hodgkin lymphoma, with limited research on its biology, progression, and management. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical characteristics of 256 patients aged ≤18 years who received treatment under the China Net Childhood Lymphoma (CNCL)‐

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Biotechnology of the Tree Fern Cyathea smithii Hook. f. (Soft Tree Fern, Katote). I. Morphogenic Potential of Shoot Apical Dome, Plant Regeneration, and Nuclear DNA Content of Regenerants in the Presence of TDZ and NAA

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2022
In nature, the tree fern Cyathea smithii lacks meristem multiplication; therefore, a system of vegetative propagation in vitro is required to protect the species’ gene resources. Experiments were carried out on the apical dome of C. smithii J. D. Hooker (
