Aptamer Engineering: Strategies for Discovering Functional Nucleic Acids for Next‐Generation Diagnostics and Biosensing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, 9 January 2026.
The advent of aptamers has highlighted their potential as alternatives to antibodies, overcoming limitations of structural instability and production cost. However, conventional approaches such as SELEX remain slow and labor‐intensive. This review examines recent advances in aptamer engineering, emphasizing in vitro and AI‐driven in silico strategies ...

Integrating starter fertilizer, fungicide timing, and late‐season nitrogen strategies for winter wheat

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) growers are exploring intensive management strategies aimed at overcoming yield plateaus and improving profitability. The interactive effects of starter fertilizer (SF) and late‐season nitrogen (LN) with multiple fungicide applications under intensive management remain unclear.

Enhancing Wholemeal Bread Shelf Life Using Optimized Mixtures of Cinnamon, Clove, and Bay Leaf Essential Oils

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the preservative potential of essential oils (EOs) in bakery products by identifying fungal contaminants in bread, testing the in vitro antifungal activity of a mixture of cinnamon, clove, and bay leaf EOs, and assessing their effectiveness in extending shelf life. Fungal identification revealed the presence of Penicillium,

Smart Ungulates: What Sheep and Goats' Performances in a Reversed‐Reward Contingency Task Tell Us About the Evolution of Cognitive Flexibility

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study shows that young goats outperform sheep in the reversed‐reward contingency task, which is a cognitive test requiring both inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility. The results highlight the importance of cognitive flexibility when solving this type of task, and suggest that the differences between both species may reflect social and ...
