Alternating High‐Fat and Polysaccharide Diets Modulates Gut Phage‐Bacterial Interplay

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals how alternating high‐fat and polysaccharide diets reshape the human gut virome and enhance phage‐bacteria interactions. Using large‐scale metagenomic meta‐analysis and a time‐resolved mouse model, the authors show that diets strongly modulate phage abundance, lifestyle, and gene exchange, offering new insights into nutrition‐guided ...

Genome-wide analysis of microRNA targeting impacted by SNPs in cucumber genome

BMC Genomics, 2017
Background microRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous small RNAs that play important regulatory functions in plant development. Genetic variations in miRNAs sequences or their target-binding sites (microRNA-target interaction sites) can alter miRNA targets in ...

Enhancing Binding by Electron Transfer at Heterointerfaces of Biochar‐Modified Hydrogel to Improve Utilization Efficiency of Wastewater Recovered Nutrients

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Enhancing the utilization efficiency of nutrients recovered from wastewater is achieved through hydrogel modification by biochar. The strategy improves nutrient binding to hydrogels via electron transfer at heterointerfaces, thereby reducing nutrient release rate.

Efficient transformation of the isolated microspores of Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L. ssp. pekinensis) by particle bombardment

Plant Methods
Background The low efficiency of genetic transformation in Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L. ssp. pekinensis) is the key problem affecting functional verification. Particle bombardment is a widely used method along with the Agrobacterium-mediated method.

Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci Controlling High-Temperature Tolerance in Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) Seedlings

Plants, 2020
High temperature is one of the major abiotic stresses that affect cucumber growth and development. Heat stress often leads to metabolic malfunction, dehydration, wilting and death, which has a great impact on the yield and fruit quality.

Tailored Organogel Systems for Optimized Pesticide Delivery: Mechanistic Insights and Agricultural Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Utilizing molecular engineering for network design, three pesticide‐loaded organogels (PLOs) carriers exhibiting varying degrees of flexibility were prepared. The mechanical properties of these carriers, tunable via their network molecular structures, enhance their structural adaptability and retention stability at biological interfaces, thereby ...

Creating Cell‐Based Hybrid Noodles for Sustainable and Nutrient‐Balanced Diets via a Serum‐Free and Animal‐Free 3D Co‐Differentiation System

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops a 3D co‐culture and co‐differentiation system for porcine muscle stem cells (pMuSCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (pMSCs) on edible starch‐based scaffolds. The system simultaneously generates myotubes and adipocytes without using serum or chemical inducers.
