By precisely incorporating the strong electron acceptor TCNQ into Cu3BTC2 pores to construct a conductive MOF interface (TCNQ@Cu3BTC2) via intermolecular π‐π conjugation, this multifunctional layer simultaneously establishes efficient charge transport channels, passivates defects, and optimizes energy‐level alignment, enabling champion devices with 19 ...

Spatial relatedness and brood parasitism in a female-philopatric bird
The spatial structure of relatedness between individuals in a population can be crucial for social selection and evolution. Here we analyze a female alternative reproductive tactic, conspecific brood parasitism, in relation to spatial relatedness among ...

Anatomy of a SPAN Particle: A Four‐Level Structural Framework for Lithium–Sulfur Batteries
Sulfurized polyacrylonitrile (SPAN) is a key cathode material for batteries. Borrowing the four‐level classification of protein structure, this perspective demonstrates SPAN's structural complexity into well‐defined levels, giving researchers clear research boundaries and targets at each level for improving battery performance.

Novel brood-site pollination mutualism between sympetalous Heterosmilax (Smilacaceae, Liliales) and a cecidomyiid gall midge (Cecidomyiidae, Diptera) breeding in fallen male flowers [PDF]
Heterosmilax is a unique dioecious genus of Smilacaceae (Liliales, Monocotyledon) in that both male and female flowers are sympetalous, ellipsoid, and almost closed. Our field observations in the Ryukyu Islands of Japan showed that H.

Nest environment modulates begging behavior of a generalist brood parasite [PDF]
In young birds, the intensity of the begging signal varies according to the chick's internal condition (i.e., hunger or nutritional state) but may be additionally modulated by the external conditions experienced in the nest (e.g., nestmate competition or
