Genetic Mapping and Functional Characterisation of GhCUP Regulating Leaf Curling in Cotton

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Leaf size and shape are crucial traits affecting photosynthesis. Moderate leaf curling is believed to be beneficial to photosynthesis because upright leaves are ideal for building a canopy structure with reduced shaded areas to improve light penetration and ventilation.

Husbandry of Newly Born Endangered White's Seahorse, Hippocampus whitei, for Conservation Stocking

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Conservation stocking programmes have been increasingly used to reverse wildlife population declines; however, the success of such programmes can often depend on the number and fitness of animals translocated or released. The White's seahorse Hippocampus whitei is an endangered seahorse species endemic to eastern Australia, where a ...

Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP) 9 Outperforms BMP2 in Osteogenesis and Osseointegration: In Vitro and In Vivo

Clinical Implant Dentistry and Related Research, Volume 28, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study compared the osteogenic mechanisms and preclinical efficacy of bone morphogenetic protein 9 (BMP9) and BMP2 in vitro and in a beagle peri‐implant defect model in vivo. Materials and Methods In vitro, MC3T3‐E1 preosteoblasts were treated with BMP2 or BMP9 to assess osteogenic gene expression (Col1, Runx2, Alp, Ocn) by real‐

CD207‐Positive Dendritic Cells Promote Emphysema Through CD8+ T Cell Pathway in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
CD207+ dendritic cells (DCs) drive emphysema by promoting CD8⁺ T cell cytotoxicity via Birbeck granule‐dependent MHC‐I antigen presentation. This DC subset is expanded by cigarette smoke‐induced oxidative stress, which triggers granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor (GM‐CSF) release from airway epithelium.

Dead Matter, Living Machines: Repurposing Crustaceans' Abdomen Exoskeleton for Bio‐Hybrid Robots

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 15, 13 March 2026.
Crustacean exoskeletons, repurposed from food waste, are engineered into sustainable bending actuators combining biotic structure with synthetic control. The augmented exoskeletons achieve rapid and robust motion with lightweight body and can be used as part of robotic manipulators, grippers and swimmers.

Erucastrum virgatum subsp. virgatum (Brassicaceae) Endemic to Sicily (Italy): Biological Properties and Phenolic Content of Leaf Extracts

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The present work reports a comparative study between extracts obtained by different methods (ultrasonic bath‐assisted extraction, maceration, decoction, and Soxhlet extraction) from the leaves of Erucastrum virgatum subsp. virgatum collected in Sicily (Italy), using ethanol and water as “green” solvents.

Microplastic ingestion and retention in penaeid shrimp from the Arabian Sea

Discover Environment
Microplastics (MPs) pollution has become a significant environmental concern globally, with emerging evidence indicating their widespread presence in marine ecosystems. Among the diverse range of aquatic organisms affected by MPs, shrimp occupy a crucial

Pollution to Solution: Understanding and Addressing Microplastic Contamination in the Environment

Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 3, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT In general, plastic pollution results from the unintentional release of macroplastic materials into the environment as well as the deliberate production and usage of small plastic particles (micro‐ and nano‐sized plastic particles) in a variety of consumer products micro and nanoplastics in filtrate freshwater and marine environments because ...

Chasing Fish: 130 Years of Innovation, Displacement and Depletion in Scottish Fisheries

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 227-247, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Rebuilding the depleted fisheries of the 21st century requires an understanding of past drivers of their decline. Despite Scotland's central role in the commercial exploitation of North Sea fisheries for over a century, associations between technological innovations, regulatory introductions and fishery landings have not previously been ...

The Effects of Different Light Spectra, UV and Extreme Temperature on the Physiology of Endosymbiotic Jellyfish Cassiopea andromeda

Marine Ecology, Volume 47, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT The endosymbiotic jellyfish Cassiopea andromeda represents a yet untapped marine species that could be targeted as a new source for bioproducts, including food and feed. Also, the potential use of contained valuable ingredients, such as carotenoids and other antioxidants, under controlled aquaculture conditions might be a particularly ...
