The Problem of Psychonomic Harmony
Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The problem of nomological harmony is the problem of explaining why the laws of nature match or apply to the states of the universe in a way that results in temporal evolution. The problem of psychophysical harmony is the problem of explaining why phenomenal states are paired with physical states and other phenomenal states in surprisingly ...

Death, Deprivation, and the Symmetry Problem
Ratio, EarlyView.ABSTRACT According to the deprivation account of the badness of death, death is bad for the one who dies because it deprives her of goods she would otherwise have enjoyed. This view faces the so‐called symmetry problem when one considers prenatal nonexistence. Scholars have proposed various solutions to this problem, but all of them encounter their own

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Fruit size, shape, color, and percent fruit rot are important quality traits for breeding cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.). Image analysis can be used to measure these traits, but affordable hardware for standardized image capture and integrated user‐friendly software pipelines are lacking.

Genome‐wide prediction of cloned disease resistance homologues across the Oryza genus
The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.Abstract The wild relatives of rice (Oryza sativa L.) represent reservoirs of genetic diversity and potential sources of novel pest and disease resistance. The recent availability of high‐quality Oryza genome assemblies has enabled greater exploration of this diversity across the genus.

Gastroschisis‐Like Defect in a Crossbred Bovine Calf: Anatomical, Clinical and Surgical Perspectives
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 6, November 2026.A gastroschisis‐like defect was observed in a one‐day‐old, crossbred bovine calf with evisceration of the pyloric abomasum and small intestine, likely resulting from prenatal rupture of an omphalocele. The calf presented with lethargy, hypothermia and metabolic derangements, along with elevated renal biomarkers.
