Spatial Fertility Variation in China: The Role of Population Composition, Context and Spillover

open access: yesPopulation, Space and Place, Volume 31, Issue 8, November 2025.
ABSTRACT This study analyses spatial variation in fertility and its determinants, including their direct and spillover impact, in China. We apply spatial regression models to the 2000 population census. The results show, first, that there is significant spatial variation in fertility at the county level in China and that counties with similar fertility

Studies on Mannan in Wood Pulp

open access: yesBulletin of the Agricultural Chemical Society of Japan, 1957
Octaacetyl 4-O-β-d-glucosyl-α-d-mannose was isolated by application of “Magnesol” chromatography from the acetolyzate of commercial dissolving pulp. This fact indicates the existence of the chemical linkages of mannose units to glucose residues in purified cellulose materials manufactured from softwood.

The Effect of Clay‐ and Yeast‐Based Mycotoxin Binder on Performance, Lymphoid Organs, Blood Parameters, Immune Response and Haematology Parameters of Broilers Exposed to Aflatoxin B1

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 6, November 2025.
Broilers fed diets contaminated with 200 µg/kg AFB1 showed poor growth performance throughout the period. These adverse effects of aflatoxicosis may be associated with liver dysfunction, immune dysfunction and inflammation of immune organs. However, supplementation of 1 g/kg MAG counteracted the negative effects caused by AFB1, reducing liver ...

Mapping the transcriptional landscape of algal resistance to viral infection reveals a core expression program

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 3, Page 1368-1384, November 2025.
Summary Algal blooms and their demise by viruses drive global‐scale ecological processes in the ocean. These blooms form the foundation of marine food webs, regulate microbial communities, and shape biogeochemical cycles. Although algal populations are constantly infected by viruses, resistant subpopulations frequently emerge after the infection.

Ceratopteris richardii (C-fern): A model for investigating adaptive modification of vascular plant cell walls

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2013
Plant cell walls are essential for most aspects of plant growth, development, and survival, including cell division, expansive cell growth, cell-cell communication, biomechanical properties, and stress responses.

Distinct Molecular Biomechanical Mechanisms Inhibit Endosperm Cell‐Wall Weakening and Seed Germination at Cold and Warm Nonoptimal Temperatures

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 11, Page 8047-8067, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Temperature sensing to adjust developmental rates and phenological responses to different climatic environments is critical for plant survival. Population‐based thermal‐time threshold models predict linear relationships between temperature and, for example, seed germination rates (speed), but the mechanisms are not known.

GCI‐Based Affinity Screening of Synthetic Oligomannosides toward Concanavalin A

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, Volume 31, Issue 59, October 22, 2025.
This study describes the development of a reliable GCI method for the affinity determination of neo‐glycoproteins toward concanavalin A (ConA), a model lectin. The final goal is to investigate multivalent carbohydrate–lectin interactions. Abstract Herein, we report the first application of grating‐coupled interferometry (GCI) to quantify the binding ...

Designing the Next Generation of Biomaterials through Nanoengineering

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 39, October 2, 2025.
Nanoengineering enables precise control over biomaterial interactions with living systems by tuning surface energy, defects, porosity, and crystallinity. This review highlights how these nanoscale design parameters drive advances in regenerative medicine, drug delivery, bioprinting, biosensing, and bioimaging, while outlining key translational ...
