Mass Spectrometry Imaging‐Assisted Discovery of Gallotannin Biosynthetic Genes in the Root of Paeonia suffruticosa

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrated approach combining mass spectrometry imaging, transcriptomics, and phylogenetic analysis facilitated the efficient identification of genes involved in gallotannin biosynthesis in Paeonia suffruticosa. As a result, a key UGT and several SCPL acyltransferases responsible for biosynthesizing pentagalloylglucose were successfully identified ...

Measuring Local Climate Effects of Institutional Gardens in Budapest

open access: yesLand
Climate change significantly affects the well-being of urban populations. Thus, there is an increasing need for public green spaces in cities, as biologically active surfaces play a critical role in modifying the urban climate—cooling temperatures and ...

On the Origins of Toughness in Corymbia calophylla (Marri Tree) Nuts

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We uncover the natural toughening mechanisms of the marri nut, including fiber pullout, crack deflection, and a viscoelastic matrix, which enable exceptional energy absorption and ductility comparable to Teflon, with an elastic modulus similar to acrylic.

Modular Assembly of Dynamic Polymer Networks From Heteroaffinity Cross‐Links to Multivalent Proteins

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
This study develops a method to modularly assemble oligomeric binding proteins, like streptavidin, using heterobifunctional cross‐linkers that have both a strong‐ and a weak‐affinity binding moiety. These dynamic cross‐linkers enable the assembly of polymer networks with unique meta‐stable nonequilibrium topologies, and that exhibit chemically tunable ...

La maison et le jardin de Maurice Ravel à Montfort-l’Amaury (Yvelines)

open access: yesIn Situ, 2023
The house and the garden of Maurice Ravel at Montfort-l’Amaury (Yvelines) bear witness to the personality of the composer who lived there. More generally, they represent a place of memory associated with French music and French arts at the beginning of ...

Garden and landscape-scale correlates of moths of differing conservation status: significant effects of urbanization and habitat diversity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Moths are abundant and ubiquitous in vegetated terrestrial environments and are pollinators, important herbivores of wild plants, and food for birds, bats and rodents.

Coordination of Cyanobacterial Nitrate Assimilation and Photosynthesis by a Novel PsbO‐Interacting Protein PirN

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
PirN was identified as a previously uncharacterized PsbO‐interacting protein specifically induced in nitrate‐grown cyanobacteria. Loss of PirN leads to coordinated downregulation of PsbO and the nitrate reductase NarB, causing decreased PSII activity and impaired growth under nitrate conditions. Complementation with either PsbO or NarB largely restores

Spatiotemporal Evolution and Scenario-Based Simulation of Habitat Quality in a Coastal Mountainous City: A Case Study of Busan, South Korea

open access: yesLand
Urban economic development together with the concentration of population acts as a major stimulus for changes in land-use configurations, thereby reshaping local ecosystems and influencing habitat quality. Conducting a rigorous evaluation of the temporal–
