Adaptability variations and differences in photoprotection of young leaves of two tree species of subtropical forest to the light environment

Photosynthetica, 2021
In the high-light environment, young leaves accumulate anthocyanins as a photoprotection strategy. However, anthocyanin biosynthesis-related enzymes gene sequence is still unknown in the leaves of subtropical forest plants.

Long‐Term Clinical Response After Low‐Dose and Short‐Duration Cemiplimab Therapy in a Patient With Xeroderma Pigmentosum in Nepal

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP), an autosomal recessive condition affecting DNA repair, is associated with a high risk of multiple and aggressive cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (CSCCs). Because of numerous and/or locally advanced tumors, surgery may be difficult.

Beyond Skin and Eyes: The Medical and Social Burden of Oculocutaneous Albinism in Africa: A Narrative Review

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oculocutaneous albinism (OCA) is a genetic disorder found worldwide, but its impact is particularly pronounced in the African continent. This results from both a higher prevalence and the persistent myths and superstitions surrounding the condition in many African communities.

Made in the shade: Leaf responses of native wildflowers to single‐axis photovoltaic solar energy

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As solar energy expands globally, balancing renewable power generation with biodiversity and ecosystem health has become an urgent challenge. This study investigated how native wildflowers respond at leaf level to the unique microclimates created by rotating solar panels in California's Central Valley.

Leaf heat tolerance in a native Californian shrub responds in expected and unexpected ways to differences in range, season, and sunlight exposure

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Earth's ecosystems are experiencing wide‐ranging impacts from global climate change, including increased average and extreme temperatures. These temperature shifts can drastically affect plant physiology, threatening the future of even common plant species. Here, we focus on photosynthetic function in a native Southern California shrub species.

The Ratio of A400/A1800 Mapping Identifies Chromosomal Regions Containing Known Photoprotection Recovery-Related Genes in Rice

Rice
The rice, like other plants, undergoes photoprotection mode by increasing nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ) in high light intensity (> 1200 µmol m− 2s− 1 PPFD), which attenuates photosystem II yield (φPSII) drastically.
