Evaluating the energy poverty alleviation effect in industrial transition scenarios: Evidence from China

Sustainable Futures
This paper employs China’s 30 provinces as research objects to capture the potential role of industrial transition on addressing energy poverty from two dimensions: industrial supererogation and rationalization.

Principal Component Analysis for High‐Dimensional Approximate Factor Models in Time Series: Assumptions, Asymptotic Theory, and Identification

Journal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We consider estimation of large approximate factor models in high‐dimensional panels of stationary time series using Principal Component Analysis (PCA). We review the key results establishing the necessary and sufficient conditions for consistency and asymptotic normality of the estimators, which hold when both the cross‐sectional dimension n$$

Chemical characterization of C31 sterols from sponges and Neoproterozoic fossil sterane counterparts

Putative metazoan body fossils from the Precambrian are curiously lacking morphological characteristics that link them unambiguously to extant animal phyla, including sponges. Chemical fossils such as the rare C30 hydrocarbons 24-iso-propylcholestane (24-

Rhizobacterial Modulation of Maize Defense Alters Herbivore Performance and Parasitoid Behavior

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The association between plants and beneficial soil microorganisms can profoundly influence aboveground trophic interactions, yet these effects are often context‐dependent. Although plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are increasingly used in maize production, little is known about how these microorganisms affect maize defenses against ...

Saturating mutagenesis on the Ser118 residue responsible for the spectral tuning mechanism of the orange/green‐reversible cyanobacteriochrome AM1_1499g1

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates our systematic site‐saturation mutagenesis at the Ser118 position of the AM1_1499g1 GAF domain. By replacing this single residue, we generated a diverse array of variants with distinct spectral properties, demonstrating the remarkable molecular plasticity of cyanobacteriochromes and their customizability for ...

Chemical and morphological diversity of foliar epicuticular waxes in economically important grain crops

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Plant epicuticular waxes play vital roles in mitigating environmental stressors. This study chemically and morphologically characterises foliar epicuticular waxes across monocot and dicot grain crops, identifying broad inter‐ and intra‐species differences in wax biosynthetic strategies.

Decoverslipping of Archival Cytology Aspirate Smears for Ancillary Studies: A Review of Methods and Institutional Experience With Freezer‐Based Techniques

Cytopathology, Volume 37, Issue 6, Page 574-586, November 2026.
Freezer‐based decoverslipping of archival cytology aspirate smears achieved only 32.5% slide‐level success (26/80), with mounting medium composition and coverslip material, not freezing temperature or duration, identified as dominant determinants, underscoring the need to align coverslipping practices with anticipated ancillary testing requirements ...
