Stimuli‐Responsive Poly(Disulfide)s: A Versatile Platform for Intelligent Drug Delivery Systems

MedComm – Biomaterials and Applications, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Ring‐opening polymerization based on dynamic disulfide bond exchange is an important method for synthesizing poly(disulfide)s. These polymers possess stimulus‐responsive mechanisms and show broad prospects in intelligent drug delivery. This review systematically discusses the ring‐opening polymerization strategy and research progress of drug delivery ...

Linkage Mapping of Stem Saccharification Digestibility in Rice [PDF]

, 2016
Rice is the staple food of almost half of the world population, and in excess 90% of it is grown and consumed in Asia, but the disposal of rice straw poses a problem for farmers, who often burn it in the fields, causing health and environmental problems.

Traversing the effects of ploidy changes in different Eragrostis curvula genotypes through high‐throughput RNA sequencing

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Polyploidization has played a key role in plant genome evolution. Eragrostis curvula (Schrad.) Ness, a perennial forage grass species of the Poaceae family, is an excellent model for investigating genome duplication due to its natural variation in ploidy levels.

Genome-scale analyses of health-promoting bacteria: probiogenomics [PDF]

, 2009
The human body is colonized by an enormous population of bacteria (microbiota) that provides the host with coding capacity and metabolic activities. Among the human gut microbiota are health-promoting indigenous species (probiotic bacteria) that are ...

Random Mutagenesis in Porphyromonas gingivalis Enables Isolation of Mutants With Enhanced Secreted Protease Activity

Molecular Oral Microbiology, Volume 41, Issue 3, Page 158-164, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Porphyromonas gingivalis is a key pathogen in periodontitis, with secreted proteases as major virulence factors. We developed a screening method to generate and identify P. gingivalis mutants with elevated protease activity. Mutations were induced using the mutagens 2,6‐diaminopurine (2,6‐DAP) or ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS), and the ...

Phytohormonal and Transcriptomic Mechanisms of Multigenerational Stress Memory in Wheat Under Weed Competition

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 6, Page 3436-3454, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Multigenerational stress exposure induces stress memory in plants, influencing resource allocation, defence mechanisms, and productivity. Weed competition imposes both resource‐based (abiotic) and allelopathic (biotic) stress, engaging overlapping hormonal pathways.
