Using thermal death time models to analyze cold stress resistance across Drosophila species
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Chill susceptible insects such as Drosophila are vulnerable to progressive disruption of homeostasis during cold stress, and low‐temperature exposure is a key factor affecting their physiology and distribution.

Color‐pure all‐organic emitters, i.e., with narrow spectral characteristics, are intensively studied for high‐definition organic LEDs and multi‐color bioimaging. In order to guide targeted materials design, this educative review discusses spectral characteristics, proper definitions and units, and the physical basis of spectral broadening, to distill ...

ABSTRACT Preexisting immunity to influenza confers rapid protection against antigenically matched viruses but can also constrain responses to drifted variants. This review asks when and why prior infection or vaccination is protective versus detrimental, and which biological mechanisms—epitope masking by circulating antibody, inhibitory FcγRIIb ...

The Structure of Vertebrate Antigen Receptor Repertoires: An Evolutionary Perspective
ABSTRACT In vertebrate adaptive immune systems, somatically diversified antigen receptors assume a central role in self/nonself discrimination. Attesting to the presence of a unique but unknown selective environment at early stages of vertebrate evolution, this facility emerged twice, in the ancestors of jawless and jawed vertebrates.

ABSTRACT Improving photosynthesis is proposed as a means of enhancing crop productivity. To assess whether simultaneous increases in light use‐efficiency and carbon assimilation are additive, we investigated the impact of elevated CO2 on the performance of a transgenic soybean line engineered for faster relaxation of photoprotection by overexpression ...

On the positivity and integrality of coefficients of mirror maps
Abstract We present natural conjectural generalisations of the ‘positivity and integrality of mirror maps’ phenomenon, encompassing the mirror maps appearing in the Batyrev–Borisov construction of mirror Calabi–Yau complete intersections in Fano toric varieties as a special case.

Fine multidegrees, universal Gröbner bases, and matrix Schubert varieties
Abstract We give a criterion for a collection of polynomials to be a universal Gröbner basis for an ideal in terms of the multidegree of the closure of the corresponding affine variety in (P1)N$(\mathbb {P}^1)^N$. This criterion can be used to give simple proofs of several existing results on universal Gröbner bases.

An EZ${\mathcal {E}\mathcal {Z}}$‐structure for the mapping class group
Abstract We construct a boundary for the mapping class group Mod(S)${\rm Mod}(S)$ of a surface S$S$ of finite type. The action of Mod(S)${\rm Mod}(S)$ on this boundary is minimal, strongly proximal and topologically free. The boundary is the boundary of an EZ${\mathcal {E}\mathcal {Z}}$‐structure for Mod(S)${\rm Mod}(S)$.
