Effect of Combined Fire- and Bio-Protective Coatings on the Thermal Degradation of Spruce Wood: Insights from Radiant Heat and Simultaneous Thermal Analysis

BioResources
The influence of two commercial fire-retardant formulations, HR Prof and Krovsan, and their mixtures on the thermal behavior and fire resistance of spruce wood was evaluated by simultaneous thermal analysis STA (namely TG/DTG/DSC) and radiant-heat ...

Effectiveness of Copper chrome arsenate and used engine oil in protecting fencing posts of Ugandan grown eucalypt clone GC550 and Phoenix reclinata against termite attack

Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2019
Eucalypts and Phoenix reclinata posts are the most commonly used species for fencing posts in urban areas of Uganda. Although eucalypts are known to be susceptible to termites, fencing posts are still used untreated.

PD‐1 Inhibits CD4+ TRM‐Mediated cDC1 Mobilization via Suppressing JAML in Human NSCLC

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CD4+ tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRMs) in non‐small cell lung cancer recruit conventional type 1 dendritic cells via XCL1‐XCR1 signaling, orchestrating antitumor immunity. The costimulatory molecule JAML is essential for this process. PD‐1 blockade restores JAML expression and cDC1 mobilization, while JAML agonists synergize with anti‐PD‐1 therapy,

Expression Analysis and Interaction Protein Screening of CoGI, the Key Factor in Photoperiod Regulation of Flowering in Camellia oleifera Abel

Horticulturae
Photoperiod is a pivotal regulatory factor in the flowering of Camellia oleifera Abel. (C. oleifera). GIGANTEA (GI) serves as a pivotal regulator, not only orchestrating the intricate circadian rhythm but also governing photoperiod-dependent flowering ...

Climate Change Threatens Micronutrient Density of European Winter Wheat

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Micronutrients are vital for human health. Wheat is a major staple crop and a significant source of minerals and B‐vitamins. The impact of climate change on their content remains largely unknown. We evaluated micronutrient levels in European winter wheat grown under historical and projected climate conditions. Our findings indicate that future climates

Human-Caused Wildfires, Climate Anomalies, and Fire Impacts in Slovakia (2010–2025): Evidence from National Fire Statistics

Fire
Wildfire occurrence in temperate Europe is increasingly shaped by the interaction of human activities and short-term climatic anomalies rather than by natural ignition processes alone.

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of tung tree (Vernicia fordii): Organization and phylogenetic relationships with other angiosperms

Scientific Reports, 2017
Tung tree (Vernicia fordii) is an economically important tree widely cultivated for industrial oil production in China. To better understand the molecular basis of tung tree chloroplasts, we sequenced and characterized its genome using PacBio RS II ...

Mass Spectrometry Imaging‐Assisted Discovery of Gallotannin Biosynthetic Genes in the Root of Paeonia suffruticosa

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrated approach combining mass spectrometry imaging, transcriptomics, and phylogenetic analysis facilitated the efficient identification of genes involved in gallotannin biosynthesis in Paeonia suffruticosa. As a result, a key UGT and several SCPL acyltransferases responsible for biosynthesizing pentagalloylglucose were successfully identified ...

Abnormal Calcium Accumulation and ROS Homeostasis-Induced Tapetal Programmed Cell Death Lead to Pollen Abortion of Petaloid-Type Cytoplasmic Male Sterility in Camellia oleifera

Agronomy
Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) plays a crucial role in the utilization of heterosis. The petaloid anther abortion in oil tea (Camellia oleifera Abel.) constitutes a CMS phenomenon, which is of great value for the hybrid breeding of oil tea. However, as
