Design Principles of Plant Thermotolerance: Integrating Photosynthesis, Reproduction, and Field Resilience in a Warming Climate

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food security is increasingly threatened by climate change, as rising temperatures compromise the yields of major staple crops, including wheat, rice, and maize. Enhancing plant thermotolerance has therefore become a critical priority for sustaining agricultural productivity.

Transcriptional benchmark dose modeling of ultraviolet radiation‐induced genomic activation in mouse skin

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Exposure to ultraviolet radiation (UV‐R) from tanning equipment increases skin cancer risk through molecular changes, but genomic thresholds remain unclear. Using mice, we examined dose‐ and time‐dependent gene expression after erythemally‐weighted UV‐R doses (0–40 mJ/cm2).

Functional validation of a modified platelet desialylation test for immune and hereditary thrombocytopenias

Transfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Thrombocytopenia arises from heterogeneous inherited and acquired disorders, and identifying the underlying platelet clearance mechanisms remains challenging. Platelet desialylation, characterised by loss of sialic acid and consequent exposure of terminal β‐galactose residues recognised by the Ashwell–Morell receptor, represents an ...

China's Export Surge and the Persistence of Machinery Competitiveness: Panel Evidence From 25 Countries

The World Economy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT China's rapid ascent as a global machinery exporter raises fundamental questions about competitive resilience of incumbent economies. This paper examines whether China's gains in revealed comparative advantage (RCA) are associated with declining competitive positions among 24 incumbent economies and whether such changes coincide with ...

Elevational variation in heart mass and suppression of hypoxia‐induced right ventricle hypertrophy in Andean leaf‐eared mice (Phyllotis)

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend In lowland mammals that ascend to high elevation, hypoxia‐induced changes in the pulmonary circulation can give rise to hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH) and associated right‐ventricle (RV) hypertrophy. Andean mice with broad elevational ranges have greater heart mass relative to body size at higher elevations, but they ...
