Wolbachia-mediated reproductive manipulation in rice planthoppers
Crop HealthRice planthoppers, including brown (Nilaparvata lugens), small brown (Laodelphax striatellus), and white-backed (Sogatella furcifera) planthoppers, are major agricultural pests in China and severely affect rice production and food security.

Over-expression of an S-domain receptor-like kinase extracellular domain improves panicle architecture and grain yield in rice. [PDF]
, 2015 The S-domain receptor kinase (SRK) comprises a highly polymorphic subfamily of receptor-like kinases (RLKs) originally found to be involved in the self-incompatibility response in Brassica.

Advanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.A Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST)‐based microring resonator is designed and simulated on a ZnSe‐platform that operates in the long‐wave infrared (LWIR) wavelength of 8 μm. The structure demonstrates strong power confinement and high Q‐factor. GST resonator is used for gas and biosensing applications.

Comparative Genomics of a Parthenogenesis-Inducing Wolbachia Symbiont. [PDF]
, 2016 Wolbachia is an intracellular symbiont of invertebrates responsible for inducing a wide variety of phenotypes in its host. These host-Wolbachia relationships span the continuum from reproductive parasitism to obligate mutualism, and provide a unique ...

Prophage WO Genes Recapitulate and Enhance Wolbachia-induced Cytoplasmic Incompatibility
Nature, 2017 The genus Wolbachia is an archetype of maternally inherited intracellular bacteria that infect the germline of numerous invertebrate species worldwide. They can selfishly alter arthropod sex ratios and reproductive strategies to increase the proportion ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A series of vancomycin‐antimicrobial peptide conjugates is synthesized and evaluated to identify the optimal combination. Vm‐MSI, selected from multiple candidates, exhibited potent activity against vancomycin‐resistant and Gram‐negative bacteria by disrupting membranes and inducing oxidative stress, thereby expanding vancomycin's antibacterial ...

Deploying dengue-suppressing Wolbachia : Robust models predict slow but effective spatial spread in Aedes aegypti. [PDF]
, 2017 A novel strategy for controlling the spread of arboviral diseases such as dengue, Zika and chikungunya is to transform mosquito populations with virus-suppressing Wolbachia. In general, Wolbachia transinfected into mosquitoes induce fitness costs through

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019 Significance Wolbachia are utilized to control agricultural pests and reduce transmission of vector-borne human diseases such as dengue fever. Reproductive manipulation through cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) is essential to these uses. A causal role in

Nanoscale Mapping of the Subcellular Glycosylation Landscape
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Using multiplexed super‐resolution imaging with fluorophore‐labeled lectins, this study reports intracellular glycosylation at the nanoscale across organelles and synaptic specializations. Extending glycan analysis beyond the cell surface, Glyco‐STORM reveals distinct glycosylation nanodomains in the ER, Golgi, lysosomes, and synaptic sites.
