An intracellular transporter mitigates the CO2‐induced decline in iron content in Arabidopsis shoots
This study identifies a gene encoding a transmembrane protein, MIC, which contributes to the reduction of shoot Fe content observed in plants under elevated CO2. MIC is a putative Fe transporter localized to the Golgi and endosomal compartments. Its post‐translational regulation in roots may represent a potential target for improving plant nutrition ...

Incentive Mechanisms for Community Sensing [PDF]
Sensing and monitoring of our natural environment are important for sustainability. As sensor systems grow to a large scale, it will become infeasible to place all sensors under centralized control. We investigate community sensing, where sensors are controlled by self-interested agents that report their measurements to a center. The center can control

A Cre‐dependent lentiviral vector for neuron subtype‐specific expression of large proteins
We designed a versatile and modular lentivector comprising a Cre‐dependent switch and self‐cleaving 2A peptide and tested it for co‐expression of GFP and a 2.8 kb gene of interest (GOI) in mouse cortical parvalbumin (PV+) interneurons and midbrain dopamine (TH+) neurons.

A Platform-Based Incentive Mechanism for Autonomous Vehicle Crowdsensing
In this article, we present an incentive mechanism for Vehicular Crowdsensing in the context of autonomous vehicles (AVs). In particular, we propose a solution to the problem of sensing coverage of regions located out of the AVs’ planned ...

Incentive Compatible Mechanisms without Money [PDF]
Mechanism design arises in environments where a set of strategic agents should achieve a common goal, but this goal may be affected by the selfish behavior of the agents. A popular tool to mitigate this impact is incentive compatibility, the design of mechanisms in such a way that strategic agents are motivated to act honestly.

A heuristic approach for the allocation of resources in large-scale computing infrastructures [PDF]
An increasing number of enterprise applications are intensive in their consumption of IT, but are infrequently used. Consequently, organizations either host an oversized IT infrastructure or they are incapable of realizing the benefits of new ...

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

An Incentive Mechanism Based on Lottery for Data Quality in Mobile Crowdsensing
Mobile Crowdsensing (MCS) leverages smart devices within sensing networks to gather data. Given that data collection demands specific resources, such as device power and network bandwidth, many users are reluctant to participate in MCS.
