De Rerum Natura: How Do Halide Perovskites Self‐Heal From Damage?

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
How can lead‐halide‐perovskites self‐heal after damage from light, heat, mechanical strain, or radiation? We show that reversible chemical defects underly performance losses and recovery, highlighting the roles of halide and proton migration, redox‐driven reactions, and acid‐base equilibria.

Cryptic diversity of Synchaeta spp. (Rotifera, Monogononta) in mountain lakes: relationships with environmental parameters [PDF]

, 2013
Cryptic species (i.e. distinct species that are morphologically similar) may have different ecological requirements and their merging into one species can bias the assessment of the main ecological drivers of biodiversity.

Activating a Metallization Switch for Record Hydrogen Evolution in Single‐Atom Modified Polar MOF Piezocatalysts

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Piezocatalytic hydrogen evolution enables the conversion of mechanical energy into chemical fuels, but its efficiency is constrained by a trade‐off between piezoelectric polarization and electronic conductivity. Strong piezoelectric polarization is essential for sufficient driving force, yet highly polar materials typically suffer from poor ...

Deciphering Aspergillus section Terrei in Galleria mellonella model: a clade-specific pathogenicity characterization

Microbiology Spectrum
The Aspergillus genus encompasses a diverse array of species, some of which are opportunistic pathogens. Traditionally, human aspergillosis has primarily been linked to a few Aspergillus species, predominantly A. fumigatus.

The multilevel organismal diversity approach deciphers difficult to distinguish nudibranch species complex

Scientific Reports, 2021
Species identification is a key procedure for broad-scoped ecological, phylogeographic and evolutionary studies. However, to perform a taxonomic study in the molecular era is a complicated task that has many pitfalls.

Cryptic transcripts from a ubiquitous plasmid origin of replication confound tests for cis-regulatory function. [PDF]

, 2012
A vast amount of research on the regulation of gene expression has relied on plasmid reporter assays. In this study, we show that plasmids widely used for this purpose constitutively produce substantial amounts of RNA from a TATA-containing cryptic ...

Copepod cryptic species as aquatic invaders

Limnology and Freshwater Biology, 2022
Abstract. The dispersal of aquatic organisms has especially increased since the 19th century, mainly due to the introduction of metal ships with ballast compartments or with birds. Along with easily visible aquatic organisms, there are invasions of less noticeable aquatic organisms, like copepods, which can mainly be recognized by experts.

RIG‐I Mediated Neuron‐Specific IFN Type 1 Signaling in FUS‐ALS Induces Neurodegeneration and Offers New Biomarker‐Driven Individualized Treatment Options for (FUS‐)ALS

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using iPSC‐derived motoneurons and postmortem tissue from FUS‐ALS patients, it is demonstrated that increased mitochondrial transcription leads to elevated cytosolic double‐stranded RNA (dsRNA) levels. This aberrant accumulation activates a RIG‐I–dependent innate immune response leading to neurodegeneration, which is amenable for FDA‐ and EMA‐approved ...

A practical implementation of large transcriptomic data analysis to resolve cryptic species diversity problems in microbial eukaryotes

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2018
Background Transcriptome sequencing has become a method of choice for evolutionary studies in microbial eukaryotes due to low cost and minimal sample requirements.

Complex taxonomy and global phylogeography of the well-known tropical earthworm Pontoscolex corethrurus [PDF]

, 2018
Few earthworm species are peregrine and among them, Pontoscolex corethrurus is the most well-known. Probably native from the Guyana shield, this earthworm is nowadays distributed worldwide, in the tropical and sub-tropical zones.
