Early-season growth responses of corn hybrids and inbred lines to a commercial seed treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Annual rainfall in the Midwest has increased up to 10% since the early 20th century, while approximately 20-25% of the global corn crops have experienced yearly drought.

Cholesterol‐DNA Origami Nanostructures for Synthetic Lipid Rafts Induce Early T Cell Activation Signals

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Here, we present a nanotechnology approach to construct synthetic lipid rafts on the live T cell membrane, leveraging a versatile DNA origami‐enabled platform named as the “cholesterol nano‐patch” (CNP). Our investigation highlights the effectiveness of DNA nanotechnology in exploring the impact of nanoscale arrangement of cholesterols on the ...

Conservation and variability of long-range interactions in structurally diverse maize genomes

open access: yesNature Communications
Chromatin interactions play critical roles in gene regulation. The genomes of distinct maize inbreds exhibit substantial structural variation, however, F1 hybrids lead to significant hybrid vigor.

Institutional Change and Discontinuities in Farmers' Use of Hybrid Maize Seed and Fertilizer in Malawi: Findings from the 1996-97 CIMMYT/ MoALD Survey [PDF]

open access: yes
This study records the use of hybrid maize seed and fertilizer by small-scale farmers in Malawi, as well as their opinions about these inputs, from 1989-90 through 1996-97. Its main purpose is to determine whether the principal constraint to smallholders

Architecture of an All‐In‐One Microfluidic Platform for Accelerated Cancer Seeding, Enhanced Spheroid Formation, and Dynamic Drug Screening Trials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
An all‐in‐one microfluidic platform consists of two‐layered PDMS channels integrated with a hydrogel microwell array. This platform enables flow‐driven tumor cell capture, enhanced spheroid formation within the microwells, and advective drug testing. ABSTRACT Effective cancer drug screening requires platforms that replicate the physiological complexity

Performance of drought‐tolerant maize for silage or grain in conventional and Kura clover perennial groundcover cropping systems

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences & Environment
Drought‐tolerant (DT) maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids have demonstrated better performance than non‐DT hybrids when drought events are present. The objective of this study was to assess the performance of three DT maize hybrids for whole‐plant dry matter (DM)

Femtosecond‐Laser‐Fabricated 3D CYTOP Microfluidic Chips Enabling Super‐Resolution Live Imaging of Cell Behavior in Confined Microspaces

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Using two‐photon polymerization of SU‐8 together with mold processing allowed the creation of defect‐free, flexible 3D microfluidic structures with sub‐micrometer precision in CYTOP. The fabricated CYTOP microfluidic chips enabled super‐resolution imaging of cancer cells in the microchannels, clearly visualizing previously undetectable fine structural ...
