Transposable Element–Driven PIEZO Mutation Enhances Locust Flight in Plateau Hypoxia
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Why transposable elements (TEs) persisted or expanded in genomes remains a mystery. Using integrated analysis of TE macro‐ and microevolution in locusts, our results showed that thousands of TE insertions promoted widespread adaptive variation. Subfamilies of candidate adaptive TEs amplified and reshaped species‐level genomic architecture.

Climate‐Related Disclosure and Bank Performance: Does Bank Type Matter?
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether climate‐related disclosure (CRD) affects the financial performance of conventional banks (CBs) and Islamic banks (IBs) differently. Using a unique hand‐collected dataset on CRD for 591 banks (422 CBs and 169 IBs) from 24 countries over a 4‐year period, we examine how the relationship between CRD and financial ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Social Licence to Operate (SLO) is an increasingly strategic concern in forestry, yet its evaluation remains largely qualitative. This study presents the first quantitative framework for assessing SLO in New Zealand's forestry sector, adapted from the Boutilier and Thomson model, originally developed for the mining sector.

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Green claims pervade corporate communications, yet their informational value varies because stakeholders process them under bounded rationality—scarce attention and costly verification. This paper develops a conceptual signalling framework in which three parameters—signal diagnosticity (D), verification frictions (V) and available attention (A)

An Improved Residual Chi-Square Test Fault Isolation Approach in Four-Gyro SINS
IEEE Access, 2019 In this paper, an improved residual chi-square test fault isolation approach is proposed. In order to improve reliability of strapdown inertial navigation system (SINS), redundant SINS composed of redundant inertial sensors is applied.
