Strengthening Early Childhood Development Programs and Interventions in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries: Systematic Review of Interventions

Maternal &Child Nutrition, Volume 22, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Early childhood development (ECD) is essential across life courses, yet many children lack adequate nurturing care needed for optimal ECD. The Nurturing Care Framework (NCF) is designed to optimize ECD outcomes through evidence‐based programs and interventions.

One‐Step, High‐Removal‐Rate and Low‐Damage Chemical Mechanical Polishing of InP Enabled by Hydrolysis Activated PF6− with In Situ Fluoride Passivation

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 36, 29 June 2026.
In this work, we propose a CMP method for InP using NH4PF₆, which hydrolyzes under In3+ catalysis to form reactive species. These convert InP into low‐binding‐energy fluorides, facilitating removal and dissolution. The process delivers high material removal rates, smooth surfaces, and fluorine passivation that lowers defect density and improves ...

The Effector SIX8 Contributes to Virulence of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lactucae Race 4 on Lettuce

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Secreted in Xylem (SIX) genes were expressed during infection of lettuce by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lactucae race 4 (Fola4). CRISPR‐Cas9 knockout of the SIX8 gene in Fola4 reduced virulence in lettuce which was restored following Agrobacterium mediated complementation. SIX8 therefore contributes to virulence of Fola4 on lettuce.
