ABSTRACT In terrestrial plants, drought stress activates abscisic acid (ABA) signaling in guard cells, prompting stomatal closure to reduce water loss. Stomatal closure is accompanied by reorganization of the microfilaments. However, the mechanism by which ABA signaling regulates microfilaments disassembly remains unclear, and the actin‐binding ...

Large Unsaturated Magnetoresistance in Gated MoS2 Flakes
Magnetotransport investigation of layered MoS2 crystals in field‐effect devices reveals strong dependence on thickness and carrier density. Monolayer MoS2 exhibits the highest magnetoresistance of 680%. A combination of density functional theory and Boltzmann transport equation simulations shows that band transport is not causing the magnetic behavior,

Rethinking Termite Methane Emissions: Does the Mound Environment Matter?
Many factors can influence the amount of methane (CH4) that is released from a termite mound. In this study, we tested how the external and internal environment of a termite mound impacts CH4 emission using field measurements of mounds in a Northern Australia savanna.
