Light Intensity Modulates Locomotor Behavior and Predation in Different Color Morphs of the Harlequin Ladybird, Harmonia axyridis

Insects
Light is a fundamental ecological cue for insects, influencing physiological rhythms and behavior. We investigated how varying light intensities affect locomotion and foraging in H. axyridis color morphs, and examined the role of visual opsins.

Complexation‐Mediated Diffusion‐Limited Crystal Growth: A General Framework for Anisotropic Crystal Growth in Cu‐Based Perovskites

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A Complexation‐Mediated Diffusion‐Limited Growth (CMDLG) framework is established to rationalize the anisotropic growth of lead‐free perovskites. Integrating coordination chemistry with mass transport kinetics, this study theoretically derives and experimentally validates that stable iodocuprate complexes induce a diffusion‐limited regime.

Spectral Sensitivities and Color Signals in a Polymorphic Damselfly

PLoS ONE, 2014
Animal communication relies on conspicuous signals and compatible signal perception abilities. Good signal perception abilities are particularly important for polymorphic animals where mate choice can be a challenge. Behavioral studies suggest that polymorphic damselflies use their varying body colorations and/or color patterns as communication signal ...

Atomic Layer Deposition in Transistors and Monolithic 3D Integration

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Transistors are fundamental building blocks of modern electronics. This review summarizes recent progress in atomic layer deposition (ALD) for the synthesis of two‐dimensional (2D) metal oxides and transition‐metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), with particular emphasis on their enabling role in monolithic three‐dimensional (M3D) integration for next ...

Pigments of a color polymorphism in a cichlid fish

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1973
Abstract 1. 1. Cichlasoma citrinellum occurs as gray or gold morphs in lakes in Nicaragua. The gold morph is variable and individuals range from yellow to dark orange. 2. 2. The pigments responsible for the carotenoid coloration are e-carotene and canthaxanthin. The gray morph contains a carotenoid component and also heavy melanin deposits.

Designed Liquid Crystalline Nanoassemblies From Clinically Validated Polyunsaturated Lipids for Combined Antioxidant, Anti‐Apoptotic, and Neurotrophic Treatments

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Ionizable lipid nanoparticles target multiple pathological pathways in neurodegeneration. The designed self‐assembled materials undergo a pH‐triggered structural transformation from a cubosome/hexosome coexistence to a hexosome phase, enhancing intracellular delivery of a multi‐target phytochemical formulation. The antioxidant‐loaded pH‐responsive LNPs

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Genetic diversity and outlier loci detecting of shell color variation in the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) by SNP markers★

Aquatic Living Resources, 2017
Color polymorphism is relatively common in marine mollusks. Shell color affects the visual perception of products which, consequently, influences consumer preference and product value.

Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy in Bionanotechnology: Current Advances and Future Perspectives

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) enables the nanoscale mapping of electrostatic surface potentials. While widely applied in materials science, its use in biological systems remains emerging. This review presents recent advances in KPFM applied to biological samples and provides a critical perspective on current limitations and future directions for

El polimorfismo en el color de frutos de Gaultheria mucronata (L.f.) Hook. & Arn. no afecta su germinación predispersiva

Gayana: Botanica, 2022
The germinative dynamics of Gaultheria mucronata (L.f.) Hook. & Arn. seeds from fruits of different colors were compared. Seeds from white, pink and dark-pink fruits were subjected to germination trials, evaluating the final germination percentage ...
