Peck or pass? Individual‐level testing of a bird‐repellent seed coating
Using sequential unique‐choice tests on an urban population of ringed carrion crows, we show that black pepper oleoresin‐treated maize seeds were avoided, while color alone had no deterrent effect. Abstract Background Carrion crows (Corvus corone) are a major depredating species of spring crops across European agroecosystems, especially during sowing ...

Making Blank Faces Expressive: Chemical Approaches to the Modification of Chemically Inert Peptides
As an alternative to the conventional approach, which combines amino acid monomers in a one‐by‐one fashion to peptide derivatives, the chemical modification of existing peptides has attracted significant attention in recent years. However, such approaches generally target the reactive functional groups in cysteine and lysine residues, particularly in ...

Additives for Aluminum‐Air Batteries: A Review
The role of electrolyte additives in Al–air batteries is investigated by focusing on their capacity to moderate Al corrosion rates, inhibit self‐discharge, and prevent surface barrier formation. Additives present in organic, inorganic, and hybrid categories, which regulate the Al–electrolyte interface by forming protective films on the Al surface ...

ABSTRACT The accumulation of tau tangles and Aβ plaques are prominent neuropathologies that characterize Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Down syndrome (DS). Continuous developments of PET tracers as biomarkers can be supported by autoradiography to validate effectiveness and accuracy of binding properties that elucidate the pathophysiology of DSAD and AD.

Hydrazine Synthase From Anammox Is Inhibited by Linear and Aromatic Alkynes
Linear and aromatic alkynes inhibit anammox in culture and in wetlands. The inhibition by alkynes is specific to the hydrazine synthase, a key enzyme in the anammox pathway. ABSTRACT N2O emissions by nitrifiers are often estimated using selective inhibitors, such as 1‐alkynes.

A novel single‐cell NAD‐ME C4 subtype integrated with CAM and bicarbonate use in an aquatic plant
Summary Many plants maximize photosynthesis by using a CO2‐concentrating mechanism (CCM). Based on physiology, the freshwater plant Ottelia alismoides has three CCMs: C4 metabolism (NAD‐malic enzyme (NAD‐ME) subtype) and bicarbonate‐use during the day plus crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) at night and lacks Kranz anatomy. Here, we combined a range of
