Sex differences in cold hardiness and desiccation tolerance of invasive apple snails in South China

, 2019
Sex differences in stress responses may be a key factor that determines population structure. Sex ratios of Pomacea canaliculata populations usually average 1:1 at birth, but are often female-biased for adults.

Anther transcriptomes in cold-tolerant rice cultivars tend to show insensitive responses

Plant Stress
Many studies of stress tolerance in plants have characterized genes that show differences among a small number of lines with clearly distinct tolerance or sensitivity to the given stress.

Engineering Pluripotent Stem Cells‐Derived Inner Ear Organoids With Enhanced Maturation and Reproducibility by Micro‐Topographical Cues

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Micro‐topographical cues applied through temporally controlled microscale confinement improve the reproducibility, spatial organization, and neurosensory‐associated features of pluripotent stem cell‐derived inner ear organoids. Integration with a vascularized organoid platform further enables controlled investigation of vascular‐epithelial interactions

Transcriptome Analysis Reveals the Pivotal Genes and Regulation Pathways Under Cold Stress and Identifies SbERF027, an AP2/ERF Gene That Confers Cold Tolerance in Sorghum

Plants
Low temperature at the seedling stage adversely affects sorghum growth and development and limits its geographical distribution. APETALA2/Ethylene-Responsive transcription factors (AP2/ERFs), one of the largest transcription factor families in plants ...

S‐Nitrosothiols as Thiol‐Protecting Groups for Controlled Thiol‐Maleimide Crosslinking of Homogeneous Soft Hydrogels

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Rapid thiol‐maleimide addition frequently outpaces mixing, resulting in heterogeneous hydrogels. S‐nitrosothiols act as thiol‐protecting groups, allowing uniform mixing with maleimide‐functionalized polymers before gelation. Sodium thiosulfate or sodium ascorbate then regenerates thiols on demand, triggering controlled thiol‐maleimide crosslinking ...

CiWRKY12 interacts with CiWRKY33 to co-regulate CiNCED3 and enhance cold tolerance in Chrysanthemum indicum var. aromaticum

Scientia Horticulturae
Cold stress significantly limits the growth and productivity of plants. WRKY transcription factors play crucial roles in response to a variety of abiotic stimuli by modulating abscisic acid (ABA) signaling. Nevertheless, their specific role in regulating
