Advanced Science, EarlyView.We identify a Lepidoptera‐conserved testis‐specific arylalkylamine N‐acetyltransferase (LTNAT) that governs male moth fertility via a novel mechanism. LTNAT loss disrupts eupyrene sperm mitochondrial derivatives and impairs apyrene sperm motility, offering a safe molecular target for innovative pesticides and genetic pest control.

Trophobiosis Theory: A Pest Starves on a Healthy Plant [PDF]
, 2007 Pests shun healthy plants. Pesticides weaken plants. Weakened plants open the door to pests and disease. Hence pesticides precipitate pest attack and disease susceptibility, and thus they induce a cycle of further pesticide use.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A novel “Cu‐mediated interstitial site engineering” strategy is introduced to thermodynamically stabilize hexagonal oxygen (hex‐O) configurations in oxygen‐containing titanium alloys. The hex‐O configuration activates multiple slip systems and enhances dislocation pinning via long‐range repulsion.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Utilizing molecular engineering for network design, three pesticide‐loaded organogels (PLOs) carriers exhibiting varying degrees of flexibility were prepared. The mechanical properties of these carriers, tunable via their network molecular structures, enhance their structural adaptability and retention stability at biological interfaces, thereby ...

Engineering New‐to‐Nature Biological Pathways for β,γ‐Alkanediol Synthesis
Advanced Science, EarlyView.β,γ‐Alkanediols are value‐added chemicals to be used as functional solvents, biofuels, and cosmetic components. This work demonstrates a carboligation‐mediated approach for synthesis of linear chain β,γ‐alkanediols in Escherichia coli, namely, hexane‐2,3‐diol (2,3‐HDO) and pentane‐2,3‐diol (2,3‐PDO). The engineered E. coli cells produce 152.2 mm (17.98
