Divergent roles of ent‐kaurene oxidase paralogs in rice momilactone biosynthesis

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Rice contains a five‐gene tandem array of genes encoding members of the ent‐kaurene oxidase (KO) family, with OsKOL4 and OsKOL5 playing divergent roles in momilactone metabolism, but both acting in the production of antifungal and antibacterial phytoalexins, which are important for disease resistance.

Determining bismuth content in GaAsBi alloys by energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy: A case study with multiple sets of k*‐factors for analytical transmission electron microscopy

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Measuring the bismuth (Bi) content of ternary gallium arsenide bismuthide (GaAsBi) alloys is important because it sensitively influences their bandgap, and Bi is known to segregate vertically to the surface and sometimes also laterally during growth, so elemental distribution maps need to be quantified.

Thermal Safety Margins and Peak Leaf Temperatures Predict Vulnerability of Diverse Plant Species to an Experimental Heatwave

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extreme heat can push plants beyond their thermal safety margin (TSM) if maximum leaf temperature (Tleaf_max) exceeds leaf critical temperature (Tcrit). The TSM is potentially useful for assessing heat vulnerability across species but needs further validation, so we exposed 50 tree/shrub species in controlled glasshouses to a 6‐day heatwave ...

Evaluating tools for predicting and measuring radiometric performance of germicidal ultraviolet systems

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
An evaluation of simulation and measurement tools for germicidal ultraviolet (GUV) systems is presented to inform their design and deployment to control the spread of airborne pathogens. Abstract Germicidal ultraviolet (GUV) air treatment technologies can be effective and safe for reducing airborne disease transmission.

Export controls and the energy transition: Aligning security and sustainability

open access: yesReview of European, Comparative &International Environmental Law, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how the accelerating use of export controls, once motivated by narrow security interests, can now affect the pace and success of the global energy transition. As strategic rivalry intensifies among the US, the EU and China, export controls increasingly target access to critical and emerging technologies such as advanced ...

The principles of systems biology

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Physiological interpretations of Systems Biology have made many advances since the Principles of Systems Biology were first published in this journal in 2008. Those advances show that the main principle, Biological Relativity, is a logical necessity since no system can exist without the form of the system.

The cardiac pacemakers: A paradigm of robustness in evolutionary biology

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Functional networks in living systems are formed by many thousands of gene products. In association with those networks, several genes (four in this diagram) may be sufficient, each on its own, to ensure that the function occurs. Any one of these may be removed or blocked while leaving the others to continue functioning.
