Investigating the Relationship Between Early Speech Milestones and Oral–Motor Development in Infants

Acta Paediatrica, Volume 115, Issue 6, Page 1237-1244, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim This study aimed to determine whether infants' oromotor skills were related to the onset of babbling and their phonetic inventory at 6 months of age. Methods Parents of 50 6‐month‐old infants (41 full‐term, 9 preterm) completed the Child Oral and Motor Proficiency Scale (ChOMPS), a valid and reliable caregiver‐report measure of oromotor ...

Genome‐Wide Association Study Reveals Insect Genetics and Microbial Symbiont Effects on Susceptibility of Diaphorina citri to the Citrus Greening Pathogen, Candidatus Liberibacter Asiaticus

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 29, 22 May 2026.
This study investigates the genetic and microbial factors influencing the susceptibility of Diaphorina citri to the citrus greening pathogen Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas), employing a microbiome Genome Wide Association Study. The research identifies a key gene encoding an MFS‐type transporter contributing to CLas infectivity and abundance in

Genetic Control of Tissue Remodeling by a Non‐Coding SNP in ITGA8 Explains Carotenoid‐Based Color Polymorphism in Marine Mollusks

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 27, 13 May 2026.
In this study, the orange‐muscle giant abalone (Haliotis gigantea) is used as a model to identify a non‐coding SNP that disrupts the interaction between ITGA8 pre‐mRNA and the splicing factor ILF2, leading to altered ITGA8 splicing. These splicing changes promote carotenoid accumulation in abalone muscle through the regulation of tissue remodeling ...

Sounds Sweet: Sound Reduplication in Brand Names Enhances Sweet Taste Expectations

Psychology &Marketing, Volume 43, Issue 5, Page 1261-1276, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The association between brand name sounds and taste perception is an emerging area of interest in marketing research. This study aims to demonstrate the role of sound‐evoked cuteness in the expectation of sweet taste. Across seven studies (including two supplementary studies), our findings revealed that sound reduplication in brand names is ...

Shared Neural Computations for Syntactic and Morphological Structures: Evidence From Mandarin Chinese

Cognitive Science, Volume 50, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Although psycho‐/neuro‐linguistics has assumed a distinction between morphological and syntactic structure building as in traditional theoretical linguistics, this distinction has been increasingly challenged by theoretical linguists in recent years.

NuSAP Safeguards Centriole Integrity to Mediate CEP57‐CEP152 Torus Recruitment for Proper Engagement

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 19, 2 April 2026.
This study reveals a novel role for the microtubule stabilizer NuSAP at centrioles. NuSAP depletion destabilizes the centriole's tubulin structure, causing premature disengagement, PCM defects, and mis‐localization of the CEP57‐CEP63‐CEP152 complex. By reinforcing centriole architecture, NuSAP enables early CEP57 loading and initiates a newly proposed ...

Two Types of Verb Reduplications in Mandarin Chinese

Studies in Chinese Linguistics, 2020
This paper analyzes verb reduplication in Mandarin Chinese under a lexicalist framework. By adopting the Lexicalist Hypothesis proposed by Chomsky (1970), a distinction has been made between syntactic and morphological verb reduplications by means of ...

New Insights Into Lakota Syntax: The Encoding of Arguments and the Number of Verbal Affixes

Studia Linguistica, Volume 80, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the morphosyntax of transitive constructions in Lakota, with particular emphasis being placed on the encoding of arguments. The analysis of argument marking through verbal affixes in Lakota transitive constructions raises two main questions: the existence or non‐existence of the zero marker for the third person singular and

Taxonomic treatment, geographic distribution and preliminar conservation status of Croton sect. Barhamia subsect. Barhamia (Euphorbiaceae) in Brazil

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.
The genus Croton (Euphorbiaceae) is an exceptionally megadiverse genus, encompassing roughly 1200 species that are predominantly distributed across tropical regions globally. For the New World, the genus is organized into three subgenera (Adenophylli, Geiseleria and Quadrilobi) and 31 sections, with C. sect. Barhamia standing out with its approximately
