Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study develops a strategy to screen the active compounds from bio‐mixtures via combining transcriptomic profiling and molecular docking. The proposed method demonstrates 100% correction in three different biobased mixtures and is 3–20 times faster than traditional approaches.

Phenotypic mixing and hiding may contribute to memory in viral quasispecies [PDF]
BMC Microbiology 3:11 (2003), 2003 Background. In a number of recent experiments with food-and-mouth disease virus, a deleterious mutant, was found to avoid extinction and remain in the population for long periods of time. This observation was called quasispecies memory. The origin of quasispecies memory is not fully understood. Results.

Development and Breeding of Herbicide‐Resistant Sorghum for Effective Cereal‐Legume Intercropping
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study identified two SbALS mutations (A93T and S624N) conferring robust herbicide resistance in sorghum, facilitating efficient weed control. Structural analysis revealed that imazamox resistance is mediated by disrupted herbicide binding. Furthermore, 126 imazamox resistant soybean varieties are screened for sorghum‐soybean intercropping ...
