Interactive effects of microplastics and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on grassland communities

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Grassland plant communities contribute significantly to global biodiversity but face numerous man‐made pressures which may interfere with their ecological functions. One such pressure receiving increasing scientific, political, and public attention is microplastic pollution.

Efficient polyhydroxyalkanoates production by anoxic mixed microbial cultures in two-stage sequencing batch reactors: conceptual validation and microbial insights

Current Research in Biotechnology
Single-stage microbial production of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) requests concurrent microbial selection, biomass maintenance, and intracellular polymer storage within the same unit, thereby hindering the attainment of high-level PHA storage.

Whole Body Phase Angle as a Promising Marker of Disease Severity in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy. [PDF]

Muscle Nerve
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims To investigate its potential role as a marker of disease severity in facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (FSHD), this study examined the association between whole‐body phase angle (PhA) and clinically assessed severity in FSHD patients.

Remote Sensing‐Based Identification of Habitat Loss for Herbivorous Waterbirds Driven by Wetland Inundation Alterations

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We present a deep learning framework integrating remote sensing and SHAP interpretation to map 22‐year habitat dynamics of herbivorous waterbirds in Dongting Lake. Results show nearly 50% habitat loss, driven primarily by hydrological recession timing rather than static inundation extent.

Design, synthesis and activity evaluation of tetrahydroisoquinoline‐based programmed cell death ligand 1 inhibitors

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
Based on a 3D‐quantitative structure‐activity relationship pharmacophore model, structural optimization of Y6 yielded Y7f. Mechanistic studies revealed that Y7f acted as a programmed death receptor 1/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD‐L1) interaction inhibitor by inducing PD‐L1 dimerization. Y7f restored T‐cell function.

Larvae of the Solitary Bee Epicharis bicolor Are a Rich Source of Yeasts, Including Four Novel Species of the Genera Starmerella, Wickerhamiella and Zygoascus

Yeast, EarlyView.
Four novel yeast species are described associated with larvae of the ground‐nesting solitary bee Epicharis bicolor in Brazil. These yeasts are described based on sequencing of the ITS‐5.8S region and D1/D2 domains of the large subunit of the rRNA gene and phylogenomic analyses.

From Nouns and Adjectives to Verbs: Base Effects on the Grammatical Behaviour of Denominal Verbs in Ancient Greek1

Transactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper investigates the role of semantic features of noun and adjective bases in determining the grammatical behaviour of Ancient Greek denominal and deadjectival verbs in *‐ye/o‐. The paper adopts a lexicalist framework (Rappaport Hovav & Levin 1998) and examines how the event schema, actionality, telicity and voice of derived verbs are ...

Improving Population Health Through Housing Policy: Lessons From the Public Housing Program

The Milbank Quarterly, EarlyView.
Policy Points Housing is a fundamental social determinant of health and is particularly amenable to policy intervention. Policies that seek to improve health should improve housing quality, affordability, and stability. The public housing program has improved health across the life course, but the structure of the program currently limits its ...
