Genome sequence of the metazoan plant-parasitic nematode Meloidogyne incognita
Plant-parasitic nematodes are major agricultural pests worldwide and novel approaches to control them are sorely needed. We report the draft genome sequence of the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita, a biotrophic parasite of many crops, including ...

The atomic arrangement of few‐nm‐wide surfactant‐free noble metal (AuAg) decahedral nanoparticles is characterized using a structural refinement based on Pair Distribution Function (PDF) derived from Precession Electron Diffraction (PED). The results indicate that the measured structure is not well described by the classical Bagley body‐centered ...

This study explores using DC plasma torches with nitrogen as a carrier gas for preheating large steelmaking ladles. Numerical models simulate ladles preheated by 0.7 and 1.5 MW plasma torches, compared to natural gas heating. Results show plasma torches achieve significantly higher bottom temperatures, validated by industrial measurements on full‐sized

Replication stress is a potent driver of functional decline in ageing haematopoietic stem cells
Haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) self-renew for life, thereby making them one of the few blood cells that truly age. Paradoxically, although HSCs numerically expand with age, their functional activity declines over time, resulting in degraded blood ...
