Meniscus‐guided organic semiconductor single crystals: From fluid dynamics to morphology control and multifunctional applications

FlexMat, EarlyView.
Centered on the multiscale meniscus, this review dissects mass transport in meniscus‐guided coating into parallel and lateral components. By analyzing the balance of multiple factors during crystallization, it establishes a clear morphology‐performance relationship.

Revealing Changes in Ovarian and Hemolymphatic Metabolites Using Widely Targeted Metabolomics between Newly Emerged and Laying Queens of Honeybee (Apis mellifera)

Insects
The queen bee is a central and pivotal figure within the colony, serving as the sole fertile female responsible for its reproduction. The queen possesses an open circulatory system, with her ovaries immersed in hemolymph.

Phylogenetic analysis of the honeybee Sacbrood virus

Journal of Apicultural Science, 2016
Sacbrood virus (SBV) is one of the most common and harmful viruses to honeybees. It causes failure to pupate and death during larval stage, in adult bees it has an influence on their behavior and even shortens their life-span.

Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...

The mechanism of Andrena camellia in digesting toxic sugars

iScience
Summary: Camellia oleifera is an economically and medicinally valuable oilseed crop. Honeybee, the most abundant pollinator, rarely visits C. oleifera because of the toxic sugars in the nectar and pollen.

Testing of SLUSH ice penetrating probe in Europa, Enceladus, and Mars environments

Frontiers in Space Technologies
Europa and Enceladus conceal global liquid-water oceans beneath ice shells several kilometers thick, and Mars holds thick polar ice deposits that may cover localized layers of liquid water or brine.

Proximity to wind turbines altered plant–pollinator dynamics in prairie and sagebrush ecosystems in Wyoming, USA

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Wind turbines influence several abiotic conditions in the environments they are sited in and may influence the behavior and movement of insect pollinators. It is unknown how operating turbines influence plant–pollinator interactions. To investigate if pollination dynamics could be affected by the presence of wind turbines, we recorded videos of ...

Area‐restricted search under realistic constraints

Oikos, EarlyView.
Abstract Area‐restricted search (ARS) is one of the most influential and widely used concepts in foraging theory, capturing a simple rule by which animals intensify local search following a resource encounter. Because ARS performs well in many spatially structured environments, it serves as a basic model for interpreting movement patterns across taxa ...
