Natal dispersal is a key ecological process influencing gene flow, population connectivity and individual fitness. In altricial birds, the transition from fledging to natal dispersal is mediated by the post‐fledging dependence period, which is often difficult to observe in elusive, forest‐dwelling species.

ABSTRACT Background Computer‐controlled anesthesia delivery systems (CCLADs), such as SleeperOne, are available as an alternative to traditional anesthesia for the treatment of teeth with molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH). Aim This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the SleeperOne and the conventional local anesthesia technique on pain and ...

A Mechanical Planar Chiral Rotaxane Induces Single‐Handed Helicity in a Twisted Perylene Diimide
A mechanical planar chiral rotaxane (Rmp) is used to induce single‐handed helical chirality (M) in a perylene diimide chromophore, resulting in persistent circular dichroism (CD) and circularly polarised luminescence (CPL). ABSTRACT The twisting of chromophores such as perylene diimides (PDIs) into helical structures affords chiroptical properties from

Oxidative Stress–Driven Alterations in FoxO‐1 and MMP‐9 Activity in Smoking‐Associated Periodontitis
ABSTRACT Objectives Smoking disrupts oxidative balance and is a major risk factor for periodontitis. Forkhead box protein O‐1 (FoxO‐1) regulates antioxidant defense, yet its contribution to smoking‐associated periodontal breakdown is unclear. This cross‐sectional case–control study assessed reactive oxygen species (ROS), matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP‐

ABSTRACT Microtubules (MTs) are crucial for cell division, growth, development and morphogenesis in plants. Cotton fibres are single‐celled trichomes that originate from the epidermal cells of the ovule, making them an excellent model for studying plant cell differentiation and rapid elongation.

Bt insecticidal efficacy variation and agronomic regulation in Bt cotton
The bollworm can be controlled effectively with Bacillus thuringiensis transgenic cotton (Bt cotton) which is being applied worldwide. However, the insecticidal efficacy is not stable.
