Cotton Recruits Soil‐Derived Delftia tsuruhatensis to Suppress Aphid Detoxification Via Salicylic Acid‐Mediated Defense

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study systematically reveals a complex interactive network involving plants, microbes, and insects, elucidating the ecological and molecular mechanisms by which cotton enhances its resistance to aphids through the active recruitment of the beneficial soil bacterium Delftia tsuruhatensis.

On correlating the modulus of elasticity of stack-bonded flyash brick masonry using impact hammer and compression tests

, 2020
Possibility of a new framework of characterising (stack-bonded) masonry properties is explored in three steps: (i) estimation of modulus of elasticity through impact hammer test (which is non-destructive and denoted as non-destructive test [NDT]); (ii ...

Interface Wettability Transition‐Driven Drug Release and Dual‐Phase Functionalization in Implant Abutment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A temporally controlled drug release coating is developed for abutments using a superhydrophobic coating self‐assembled on mesoporous silica. This surface provides sequential functionality: initial contamination resistance through non‐wetting, followed by controlled drug release via wettability transition.

Dielectric‐Confinement‐Induced in‐Plane Photoelectric Anisotropy in Isotropic Quasi‐1D γ‐GaS Nanoribbon

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We investigate the geometry‐governed optoelectronic anisotropy arising from dielectric confinement in quasi‐1D γ‐GaS nanoribbons with intrinsically isotropic atomic structures. Dielectric mismatch between the nanoribbon and its surroundings leads to a general polarization‐dependent photoresponse during near‐field scattering.

EXPLORING CORRELATIONS BETWEEN NON-DESTRUCTIVE AND DESTRUCTIVE TESTS FOR THE MECHANICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF EXISTING TIMBER STRUCTURES

The paper focuses on the mechanical characterization and assessment of the state of preservation of existing timber structures. Non-destructive tests (NDT) have great potential in estimating the mechanical properties of wood through in-situ ...

TRIM: Simultaneous Thermometry, Ranging, and Imaging via a Monolithic Metalens

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While metasurfaces offer a pathway beyond the discrete architectures of conventional LWIR systems, physically fusing high‐precision thermometry and passive ranging onto a single metalens remains a formidable challenge. Here, we demonstrate a monolithic, dual‐focus metalens capable of simultaneous multidimensional sensing.

Landslide recognition with sample augmentation based on a joint DCGAN and Pix2Pix

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk
Landslides are among the most frequent and destructive geological hazards in mountainous regions; however, the ability to automatically identify landslides is often constrained by limited amounts of labelled samples, modest gains derived from traditional

SIRT6‐Mediated Deacetylation of ATF3 Promotes Silica‐Induced Lung Fibrosis by Enhancing its Nuclear Import via Binding to Importin α

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
SIRT6‐mediated ATF3 acetylation drives MGARP transcription and mitochondrial dysfunction in macrophages, promoting macrophage senescence and pulmonary fibrosis. Mechanistically, HSP70/Importin α competitively binds to ATF3, modulating its nuclear translocation.
