Discovery of edodine, a natural compound from Lentinula edodes with antibacterial activity for the biological control of fire blight pathogen Erwinia amylovora

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Novel edodine was identified from Lentinula edodes HK761, exhibiting biocontrol potential against fire blight by affecting motility, intracellular ATP level, and cell division of Erwinia amylovora. Abstract BACKGROUND In the search for biological resources with antibacterial activity against Erwinia amylovora, the culture filtrate of Lentinula edodes ...

From Flybys to Sample Return: A Review of Space Probes and Robotic Sampling Technologies for Small Bodies

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Fractionation‐Free Protein Corona Quantification Through Synchrotron‐Based Small‐Angle X‐ray Scattering

Small Methods, EarlyView.
A fractionation‐free SAXS approach quantifies protein corona formation on silica nanoparticles under native conditions. By deconvoluting scattering from free and bound proteins, adsorbed mass is directly determined in simple and complex media. The method resolves adsorption regimes and thermodynamics, establishing non‐invasive, in situ characterization

Short-Term Consumption of Hot Beverages in Polystyrene Cups and Early Biomarkers of Biological Effect: A Single-Arm Longitudinal Human Biomonitoring Pilot Study

Journal of Xenobiotics
Styrene, a constituent of polystyrene food-contact materials, can migrate into hot beverages, but data on short-term consumer exposure and associated biological responses remain limited. In this single-arm longitudinal human biomonitoring pilot study, 40

Mechanism of Quasi‐Power‐Frequency Resonant Overvoltage Triggered by Multiple Lightning Strikes in High‐Voltage Alternating Current Systems Equipped With Shunt Reactor

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the generation mechanism of quasi‐power‐frequency resonant overvoltage triggered by multiple lightning strikes in high‐voltage alternating current (HVAC) systems equipped with shunt reactors. Based on field measurements from a 500 kV AC system, equivalent and simplified circuit models have been established to analyse ...

Contrasting drivers of phosphorus dynamics across soil aggregates: The role of nutrient enrichment and mowing

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Phosphorus (P) is an essential but often limiting nutrient for sustaining grassland ecosystem functions. Its soil dynamics are highly sensitive to land management practices and may vary across soil aggregate sizes due to differences in biotic and abiotic factors ...

Long‐term patterns of breeding range expansion mirror invasion dynamics during recolonisation of a semi‐colonial raptor

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We used a unique long‐term dataset of population recovery in the Osprey Pandion haliaetus to reveal the similarity in spatial patterns underpinning recolonisations and biological invasions. Our findings highlight the importance of rare pioneering movements in driving range expansion, and the value of conservation interventions such as species ...

Comparative Satellitomics in Arowanas (Telostei, Osteoglossiformes) Sheds Light on the Evolution of Ancient Satellite DNAs

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This work focused on arowana fishes (Teleostei, Osteoglossiformes) as a model; their widespread intercontinental distribution and basal phylogenetic position within Teleostei make them a compelling model for evolutionary research, especially in the realm of satDNA molecular evolution. Through the integration of genomic and chromosomal data, we analyzed

Comparative Molecular Insights into Developmental and Behavioral Toxicity Induced by Octocrylene and Ethylhexyl Salicylate Exposure on Zebrafish

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study compared the ecological toxicity of organic ultraviolet filters, octocrylene (OC) and ethylhexyl salicylate (EHS), on zebrafish embryos and larvae. EHS exhibited higher acute toxicity, causing increased mortality, hypoactive behavior at 50 mg/L, and disruptions in lipid homeostasis, while OC primarily affected hypoxia response and ...
