Genetic Control of Tissue Remodeling by a Non‐Coding SNP in ITGA8 Explains Carotenoid‐Based Color Polymorphism in Marine Mollusks

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, the orange‐muscle giant abalone (Haliotis gigantea) is used as a model to identify a non‐coding SNP that disrupts the interaction between ITGA8 pre‐mRNA and the splicing factor ILF2, leading to altered ITGA8 splicing. These splicing changes promote carotenoid accumulation in abalone muscle through the regulation of tissue remodeling ...

Insights into the feeding ecology of and threats to Sand Cat Felis margarita Loche, 1858 (Mammalia: Carnivora: Felidae) in the Kyzylkum Desert, Uzbekistan

open access: yesJournal of Threatened Taxa, 2019
Little is known about the ecology of the Sand Cat Felis margarita throughout its range in the deserts of northern Africa to central Asia.  We present observations of the Sand Cat in the southern Kyzylkum Desert, Uzbekistan, potentially preying upon a ...

MicrobeDiscover: A Knowledge Graph–Enabled AI Framework for Identifying Microbes for Inorganic Nanomaterial Biosynthesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Microbial synthesis of nanomaterials (NMs) is eco‐friendly, but the screening of microorganisms is limited by inefficient traditional methods (currently only involving∽400 microorganisms/90 NMs). We propose AI framework MicrobeDiscover, integrating a knowledge graph of microbe‐NM interactions.

Rapid Electrodeposition of Defect‐Tuned MOF Nanoarchitectures: Synergistic Unlocking Electrochemical Performance via Dual Modulation of Morphology and Electronic Structure

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work utilizes rapid electrodeposition and a competitive ligand to tailor crystal fragment/ amorphous MOF structures while Ni incorporation modulates the Co electronic environment. Their synergistic control over morphology and electronic structure accelerates reconstruction into active (oxy)hydroxides, lowers the Co3+/Co4+ oxidation potential ...

Reconfigurable Acoustofluidic Microvortices for Selective Microcargo Delivery

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work introduces a frequency‐encoded, reconfigurable acoustofluidic system that overcomes the low throughput and poor selectivity of conventional micro‐delivery methods. By exploiting discrete microbubble resonances to program adaptive microvortex modes, the platform enables real‐time switching and selective guidance of microscale payloads through ...

Adult Sex Ratio as a Demographic Feedback Linking Mating Systems, Parental Care, and Evolution

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Breeding systems are some of the most diverse social behavior, and our team is investigation the evolutionary causes of this diversity. This review summarises our research carried out at the University of Bath. We argue that demographic components of wild populations, especially the adult sex ratio, plays a key role driving breeding system variation ...

Synergetic Relay Between Atomic Hydrogen and Chlorine Radicals Enables Efficient Nitrate‐to‐Nitrogen Gas Conversion

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Using photoelectrochemical (PEC) deep denitrification technology, a novel synergistic reduction‐oxidation process enables efficient conversion of nitrate (NO3−) to nitrogen (N2), while suppressing key intermediate ammonium (NH4+) and toxic nitrite (NO2−) accumulation.

Influence of Food Resource Availability on the Activity Time of Raccoon Dogs (Nyctereutes procyonoides) in Urban Parks in Tokyo

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Urbanization results in the reduction and fragmentation of green spaces, which function as wildlife habitats. However, some wildlife has adapted to urbanization by changing their ecology and behaviors.
