Assessing second‐price auctions for parcel exchanges in last‐mile logistics

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract The rapid growth of e‐commerce has led to multiple carriers operating in the same regions, creating opportunities for collaboration. However, logistics companies typically operate independently, leading to inefficiencies. Horizontal cooperation, where carriers share resources and infrastructure, can improve efficiency and reduce costs.

CRISPR/Cas9‐Mediated Knockout of LbSP1 and LbSP5G1 Reveals Efficient Customization of Shoot Architecture in Black Goji Berry

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Goji is recognized as a nutritionally rich superfruit with medicinal and industrial importance. However, its inherently indeterminate growth habit causes asynchronous flowering and uneven fruit ripening, resulting in harvesting inefficiency with high labour costs and low fruit yield.

Strategies and mechanisms of precision genome engineering: From gene editing to genome writing

open access: yesiMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.
In this review, we examined the progression of genome manipulation from stochastic nuclease‐mediated cutting toward precise editing and programmable genome writing. We discussed tools like multi‐kilobase RNA‐guided integrators and Artificial Intelligence (AI)‐designed effectors and showed how these advances enable researchers to treat genomes as ...

Graph identification of proteins in tomograms (GRIP‐Tomo) 2.0: Topologically aware classification for proteins

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Cryo‐electron tomography (cryo‐ET) enables structural characterization of biomolecules under near‐native conditions. Existing approaches for interpreting the resulting three‐dimensional volumes are computationally expensive and have difficulty interpreting density associated with small proteins/complexes.

Fish welfare in a changing world: New developments and current challenges

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 109, Issue 2, Page 650-692, August 2026.
Abstract The welfare of non‐human animals is central to ethical discussions on animal use, with increasing attention to fish welfare across research, aquaria, aquaculture, and fisheries. This paper reviews current theoretical approaches to animal welfare and recent advances in defining and assessing fish welfare since the seminal paper by Huntingford ...

Chain‐Length Regulation by WzzE Is Necessary for, but Genetically Separable From, Cyclic Enterobacterial Common Antigen Synthesis

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 126, Issue 2, Page 190-207, August 2026.
Here, we demonstrate that polysaccharide chain length regulation plays a distinct role in enabling formation of a cyclic molecule important for the bacterial cell surface. However, this function is necessary, but not sufficient for the cyclic molecule's biosynthesis.

Mutation‐Induced Pocket Deactivation: How Ser353/Pro245 Alters KCa2.2 vs. KCa3.1 Ligand Selectivity

open access: yesArchiv der Pharmazie, Volume 359, Issue 7, July 2026.
By leveraging a computational approach, we investigated the molecular determinants underlying the selectivity of two novel KCa2.2 modulators. Our protocol, combining in silico mutagenesis, molecular dynamics, and docking, suggests that the Ser353/Pro245 substitution between KCa2.2 and KCa3.1 dictates distinct pocket shapes, ultimately steering Compound

On the Influence of Currents and Grain Size on Wave Orbital Motion Scaling Dependence of Sand Ripple Geometry

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Using field observations from the MEGAPEX and Coastal Genesis 2.0 (CG2‐DVT2) campaigns along the Dutch coast, along with laboratory data from the DUNE3 experiment, we examine how ripple geometry responds to variations in orbital diameter, sediment grain size, and current forcing. Results show that ripple wavelength follows a weakly superlinear

Magnetic Control of Chiral Hybridized Phonon Magnetic Moments in Ferrimagnets Fe2‐xZnxMo3O8

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 48, 15 June 2026.
Helicity‐resolved magneto‐Raman spectroscopy reveals magnetic control of chiral phonon magnetic moments in polar ferrimagnet (ZnxFe2−xMo3O₈). Large spontaneous zero‐field phonon splittings, selective phonon–magnon coupling, and asymmetric Zeeman responses demonstrate that phonon chirality is governed by magnon‐phonon coupling and magnetization.

Robust Polymer Hydrogels Improve Electric‐Fish‐Inspired Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 38, 11 May 2026.
ABSTRACT Electric‐fish‐inspired hydrogel batteries based on ion‐concentration gradients offer an attractive route to soft power sources; however, the poor mechanical properties of existing hydrogels limit device assembly and performance. Here, we report poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether acrylate hydrogels that enable ion‐gradient batteries composed of
