Waiting for a Release: The Expectation in Virtual Gaming Communities
ABSTRACT This study examines how virtual gaming communities influence and maintain player expectations before, during, and after a game's release. A mixed‐methods study was conducted, comprising a netnography followed by an experiment. First, a netnographic study was conducted over 12 months, tracking communities to understand player behavior and ...

Mini‐Hairpin DNA: Extraordinarily Stable Structure and Its Applications
Mini‐hairpin DNA fragments containing GCGAAGC and GCGAAAGC form exceptionally stable hairpin‐like structures, with only two G−C pairs and one sheared G−A pair, remaining undenatured in 7 M urea and resisting nuclease digestion. These mini‐hairpin sequences frequently appear in replication and transcription origins, influence DNA sequencing fidelity ...

Mid‐Infrared Spectroscopy and Machine Learning for Chlorogenic Acid Quantification in Coffee
Chlorogenic acid (CGA) concentration in coffee was predicted using mid‐infrared (MIR) spectroscopy and a machine learning approach. Forty‐four roasting stages (140–220 °C) plus a green coffee control were analyzed. A multilayer perceptron regressor, trained on preprocessed MIR data, outperformed traditional peak analysis, enabling accurate and ...

PEK14: A Kinesin‐4 Necessary for Male‐Derived Fertility in Arabidopsis thaliana
ABSTRACT Of the 61 kinesins annotated in Arabidopsis thaliana, many are still without assigned function. Here, we have screened an insertional mutant library of Arabidopsis pollen‐expressed kinesins for fertility defects. Insertional mutants for three kinesins showed a significant reduction in seed set.

ABSTRACT Pollen is a male gametophyte of angiosperms. Following meiosis, the microspore undergoes an asymmetric division called pollen mitosis I (PMI), which produces two cells of different sizes: a large vegetative cell and a small generative cell. Polarized nuclear migration and positioning during PMI are important for successful pollen development ...
