PEK14: A Kinesin‐4 Necessary for Male‐Derived Fertility in Arabidopsis thaliana
ABSTRACT Of the 61 kinesins annotated in Arabidopsis thaliana, many are still without assigned function. Here, we have screened an insertional mutant library of Arabidopsis pollen‐expressed kinesins for fertility defects. Insertional mutants for three kinesins showed a significant reduction in seed set.

Vicarious Touch: A Potential Substitute for Social Touch During Touch Deprivation
ABSTRACT Restricted interpersonal touch experiences, for instance due to COVID‐19 social distancing measures, result in detrimental effects on anxiety, loneliness and psychological well‐being. Yet, interventions capable of mitigating the impact of social touch deprivation, as experienced during the COVID‐19 pandemic, remain insufficient. In this study,
