Delayed rainfall diminishes the positive response of soil respiration to warming

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Warming stimulates soil respiration and its components, while delayed rainfall suppresses them. Crucially, delayed rainfall diminishes or even reverses the positive response of soil respiration to warming by intensifying the drought stress, and autotrophic respiration is more vulnerable than heterotrophic respiration under this interaction.

Machine learning modeling reveals unconventional nucleation mechanism in phase‐change material GeTe

InfoScience, EarlyView.
Machine‐learning molecular dynamics reveals that GeTe crystallization begins with Ge‐rich defective octahedral clusters, followed by Te‐mediated assembly into a rock‐salt network. This unconventional two‐stage nucleation pathway explains early Te sublattice ordering, Ge‐vacancy formation, and structural ordering kinetics in phase‐change materials ...

Connexin 32 constrains a mesenchymal-like switch in differentiated urothelium and luminal cancers

Life Science Alliance
We reveal a coordinating role for Cx32-mediated cell–cell communication in maintaining mitotic-quiescence and limiting migration-associated TGFβ signalling, extracellular matrix remodelling and mesenchymal-like changes in human urothelium. These features

Trajectory of irritability in children and youth in Ontario, Canada, throughout the COVID‐19 pandemic

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
This study explored how irritability in children and youth changed during the COVID‐19 pandemic and its impact on mental health. Results showed a gradual decline in irritability, with factors like age, parental anxiety, and resilience influencing its trajectory.

Can DNA from wet, temperate soils be used for palaeoecological reconstruction?

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sedimentary ancient DNA in well‐dated contexts (sedaDNA) has great potential as a palaeoecological proxy. A few studies have attempted palaeoecological reconstructions using sedaDNA from soil; these studies have been mainly restricted to cold and/or dry soils.

Citrus depressa peel extract and its polymethoxyflavones mitigate acetaminophen‐induced chronic liver injury in mice through antioxidant activation, epigenetic regulation, and gut microbiota modulation

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Preventing chronic liver damage is essential for maintaining overall health and reducing the risk of serious liver diseases. Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose can lead to severe liver damage due to oxidative stress, and citrus fruits are rich in bioactive compounds that may have health benefits.

Scaling allometric relationships in pure, crowded, even-aged stands: do tree shade-tolerance, repro-ductive mode and wood productivity matter? [PDF]

Annals of Forest Research, 2010
Tree allometric relationships are likely to be influenced by species tolerance to shade, nutrient availability and plant ontogenetic origin. The aim of this paper was to test to what extent these factors affect the scaling exponents of two allometric ...

Grassland forage legumes and drought mitigation – sheep wool application improved soil water availability and enhanced drought–stress responses

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sheep wool may reduce drought stress in grasslands when used as a soil amendment. Two experiments were conducted to explore if: (i) water absorbed by wool would be biologically ‘active’ and therefore available to plants, using a novel method of measuring water activity (aw); and, (ii) adding wool to compost would delay water stress ...

Soil-Geochemical Aspects of Land Use in Abandoned Land in Central Poland

Miscellanea Geographica: Regional Studies on Development, 2006
It is observed increasing of abandoned land in Poland in last decade of 20th century.The part of abandoned land is usually covered by birch tree community. The entrance of birches, especially on pure sandy area, changes properties of soil. The samples of

Bee pollen as functional food and environmental bioindicator: current evidence and future challenges

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Bee pollen (BP), a plant‐derived product collected by honey bees, is increasingly promoted as a functional food due to its content of proteins, essential amino acids, lipids, vitamins, minerals, and bioactive compounds such as polyphenols and flavonoids.
