Root Cap Cuticles Confer a Transient, Penetration‐Optimised Phase During Early Seedling Establishment

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 6384-6395, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Roots emerging from seeds encounter substantial mechanical resistance during soil entry. A transient root cap cuticle (RCC) forms early in development, yet its contribution to root tip function during this mechanically challenging transition remains unclear.

Breeding for Resilient Cereals: Integrating Molecular Networks and Trait‐Based Selection to Improve Nitrogen and Water Use Efficiencies

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 6583-6595, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Cereal crops are fundamental to global food security, but their production is increasingly challenged by rising demand and the unpredictable impacts of climate change. Among the most limiting and interdependent resources sustaining yields are nitrogen and water.

Mimetic Core‐Sheath Silk Sutures with Superior‐Strength for Pain Management, Anti‐Infection and Wound Healing

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 29, 7 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Sutures are crucial for tissue approximation and wound healing. Besides their strength limits requirement, they often fail to effectively address complications like infection and pain. Inspired by natural silk's “core‐sheath” structure, our suture features a wet‐spun core of n zinc‐fortified silk fibroin fibers (RSF‐Zn2+) after drawing with ...

SOAT1 Nonsense Variant in a Cat With Sebaceous Gland Dysplasia

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT We investigated a random‐bred cat with sebaceous gland dysplasia. The cat presented with hypotrichosis and dark crusts on the skin. Histopathologically, sebaceous glands were enlarged and had an abnormal morphology with an increased number of undifferentiated reserve cells.

Exploring Cerumen as an Alternative Matrix for Drug Detection and Quantification: Method Development and Application in Clinical Samples

Drug Testing and Analysis, Volume 18, Issue 8, Page 1065-1075, August 2026.
An LC–MS/MS method was developed for the detection of 33 psychoactive medications in cerumen (earwax) and applied to the samples of 60 psychiatric inpatient volunteers. The findings highlighted the utility of cerumen as an innovative biospecimen in clinical toxicological analysis.

Genomic and Morphological Insights Into the Adaptive Evolution of Honeybees in Rocky Desertification Habitats

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Rocky desertification exerts significant selective pressures on honeybee morphology. Honeybees undergo adaptive evolution in 19 genes such as glycogen biosynthesis. Genes like GBE promote organismal survival under desertification. ABSTRACT Unlike traditional desertification, rocky desertification is a distinct form of land degradation characterized by ...
