Zagros Restoration: Smart Choices for Oak Forests
ABSTRACT Widespread forest degradation across the northern Zagros region of Iran driven by both human activity and natural processes has created an urgent need for targeted afforestation and forest enrichment strategies. Hence, the aim of this study was identifying the most suitable native tree and shrub species for restoring degraded forest areas in ...

Temporins, among antimicrobial peptides, are short frog‐derived molecules with potent antibacterial activity. This review highlights chemical optimization strategies applied to temporins A–L, showing how sequence tuning modulates structure, stability, and selectivity, enabling improved activity against resistant pathogens.

A Goodfellowiella coeruleoviolacea Imine Reductase is here reported as a novel enzyme for biocatalytic application in chiral amine synthesis. Deep eutectic solvents have been used to increase substrate loadings, up to 150 mM, and boost enzymatic activity. Reaction scope and scale‐up procedure showcased the protocol applicability.

Abstract Premise The identity of sterile floral organs in second‐whorl, alternisepalous positions within Caryophyllaceae remains contentious, having been described as staminodes, “petaloids,” or petals homologous with those of other Pentapetalae. Limited ingroup and outgroup sampling and floral developmental data and inadequate phylogenetic comparative

Abstract Despite documented ecomorphological shifts toward an herbivorous diet in several coelurosaurian lineages, the evolutionary tempo and mode of these changes remain poorly understood, hampered by sparse cranial materials for early representatives of major clades. This is particularly true for Therizinosauria, with representative crania best known

Celtis africana leaves extracted with different solvents are subjected to chemical analysis, and the metabolites detected dock with lipid and carbohydrate digestive enzymes. The extracts are also tested for modulation of glucose uptake and absorption in the muscles, liver, and intestine, with further evaluation of their in vitro antioxidant bioactivity.

Capsella bursa‐pastoris is a globally distributed weedy species widely used to study polyploid genome evolution, yet its East Asian populations remain poorly understood. Using RADseq from 187 accessions across the Korean Peninsula, we found evidence of outcrossing and extensive genetic admixture, likely driven by human‐mediated gene flow. These results

This study chronicles all described subspecies of snow sheep (Ovis nivicola) since 1829, reviewing taxonomic assessments by key systematists. Using genome‐wide SNP genotyping on 337 samples from 15 populations, we validate and refine subspecies classifications, revealing eight genetic clusters and proposing a new subspecies (O. n. ernsti).
