ABSTRACT Plant regeneration is governed by intrinsic gene regulation and phytohormonal cues. WUSCHEL (WUS) gene promotes regeneration, but its broader functional role remains unexplored. Here, we demonstrate that the constitutive and inducible expression of banana‐derived WUS2 (GN‐WUS2) enhances regeneration in Nicotiana tabacum (tobacco) and Musa ...

Stigma, self‐styling and ‘forced accents’ among English L2 speakers in Spain
Abstract This paper examines the relationship between shame, stigma and accent for non‐native English speakers in Spain. The low English competence of the Spanish population frequently constitutes a source of individual and collective stigma – which includes the apparent undesirability of Spanish‐sounding English.

Building a Continental‐Scale Geodetic Network: The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO)
Abstract The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO) transformed the use of geodesy in North America to study crustal deformation and plate boundary processes by establishing a continental‐scale, standardized, open‐access geodetic network. Built and operated by UNAVCO between 2003 and 2018 as part of the National Science Foundation (NSF)‐funded EarthScope ...

Purpose Profiles in Informal Digital Learning of English: A Mixed‐Methods Study
ABSTRACT Background Research on Informal Digital Learning of English (IDLE) has largely emphasized engagement intensity, with less attention to learners' underlying purposes. Objectives This study identified purpose profiles in IDLE and examined their associations with digital competence, L2 emotions, and cross‐cultural competence. It also explored how

Structural Analysis and Inhibitor Modeling of Bacterioferritin From Brucella abortus
ABSTRACT Iron homeostasis in various pathogenic bacteria is regulated by bacterioferritins (Bfr) which function to store Fe3+ and release Fe2+ as needed for metabolic processes. The Bfr structure consists of 18 kDa subunits in which dimer pairs bind a heme molecule and are assembled into a highly symmetrical 24‐meric spherical structure with an ...

The EAP‐AIAS: Adapting the AI Assessment Scale for English for Academic Purposes
ABSTRACT The advancement of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is complicating traditional techniques in English for Academic Purposes (EAP) instruction. This paper proposes a novel adaptation of an existing scale (the AI Assessment Scale), which is designed to facilitate effective learning and assessment in the era of GenAI.

Heterokairic Genes and the Eco‐Evo‐Devo of Timing
Heterokairic genes as the bridge (Heterokairic Pathways?): Heterokairic genes are heterochronic regulators whose activity is modulated by environmental conditions. External cues (e.g., temperature, nutrition, oxygen, density: yellow box) are sensed (yellow arrows) and converted into endocrine and metabolic signals (purple box and arrow into fish's ...
