Axial muscle‐fibre orientations in larval zebrafish

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 517-533, April 2025.
In 4 days post‐fertilization zebrafish larvae, the fast axial muscle fibres follow helical trajectories that taper towards the tail. Adjacent muscle fibres form substantial angles relative to each other to accommodate this pattern. Using a novel semi‐automatic method, we quantified 3D fibre angles over the whole muscle volume.

Local Crime Spillover Onto Public–Private Partnership Financing Commitment: Do Urban Proximity and Local Affluence Matter?

open access: yesJournal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While the relationship between public infrastructure and crime location choices is well‐studied in criminology, the impact of crime as a spillover externality on public–private partnership (PPP) infrastructure financing remains unexplored. Leveraging a data set of 542 Private Finance Initiative (PFI)‐funded infrastructures in England and Wales

Generics favor stability

open access: yesMind &Language, EarlyView.
Humans seek to predict, explain, and control their environments. Generalizations—like those expressed by “children like candy” and “cigarettes cause cancer”—provide one resource to facilitate these tasks. We develop a proposal tying the acceptability judgments of generics to the psychological functions of generalizations.

Nationalist–Feminine Bifurcation: The Construction of National Morality Through Gender Regimes

open access: yesNations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article introduces the concept of nationalist–feminine bifurcation to analyse how nationalist–populist regimes construct moral orders through gendered representations. It explores how women are simultaneously portrayed as the idealized ‘national woman’ and the excluded ‘moral threat’. Through a comparative discourse analysis of four cases—

Identification of Critical Amino Acid Residues Required for the Polar Localization of a Rice Manganese Transporter

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rice has developed an efficient system for manganese (Mn) uptake, mediated by two distinct transporters, OsNramp5 and OsMTP9. These transporters exhibit polar localization at the root exodermis and endodermis; however, the mechanisms underlying their polar localization and their role in Mn uptake remain unclear.

A High‐Throughput Phenotyping Pipeline for Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa) Panicles Using Image Analysis With Convolutional Neural Networks

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Quinoa is a grain crop with excellent nutritional properties that has attracted global attention for its potential contribution to future food security in a changing climate. Despite its long history of cultivation, quinoa has been improved little by modern breeding and is a niche crop outside its native cultivation area.
