Prophetic promise: the lineal return of ‘lopp'd branches’ in Shakespeare's Cymbeline
Abstract This paper identifies the early‐modern conception of prophecy as a word‐magic performed across generations, a verbal promise that anticipates its own realisation in posterity. Just as Francis Bacon upheld the generative power of prophetic utterances by noting their ‘springing and germinant accomplishment throughout many ages’, Shakespeare's ...

Membrane trafficking of synaptic adhesion molecules
Abstract figure legend Synaptic cellular adhesion molecules are surface transmembrane receptors that have been shown to internalize via endocytosis, and possibly also recycle, in a process that has been linked to the function and the turnover of the synaptic contact site.

Strategies, costs and counter‐strategies to sexual coercion
ABSTRACT Sexual conflict, the conflict between the evolutionary interests of females and males over mating, occasionally results in the evolution of traits favourable for one sex and adverse for the other. In this context, males can use sexual coercion to increase their mating success, at the expense of their female targets' mate choice.

Vertical Zonal Distribution Patterns of Entomopathogenic Fungi in the Changbai Mountain
Entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) distribution was divided into high‐ and low‐elevation patterns. EPF species diversity in the same vegetation belt was unaffected by altitude. EPF tended to evolve toward broadleaved forest habitats. ABSTRACT Entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) are critical drivers of ecosystem processes such as pest regulation and material cycling.

Figures a–b and c–d present the ToF‐SIMS results of the Li metal and polymer electrolyte interface before and after cycling, respectively. After cycling, accumulation of S− and LiF− components at the interface was observed, confirming the formation of an artificial SEI layer. We have entered the age of renewable energy revolution.
