A Multifunctional Mesoporous Janus Separator With Optimized Mass Transport Regulation Enabling 800‐Cycle Lithium‐Oxygen Batteries

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
To resolve the fundamental cycling decay of lithium‐oxygen batteries arising from lithium dendrite propagation, anode corrosion, and cathode passivation, we fabricate a mesoporous silica/polyurethane Janus separator integrating interfacial protection and mass transport modulation, which markedly enhances battery cycling stability and cycle life ...

Placing very long branch taxa in the plant tree of life: A case study with Dioscoreales mycoheterotrophs

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise The inclusion of heterotrophic plants in broader systematic studies is challenging due to substantial morphological modification, gene loss, and accelerated substitution rates following photosynthesis loss. In particular, inclusion of very long branch (VLB) taxa with highly elevated rates may lead to phylogenomic misinference.

Profitability of positive selection technique for seed yam production in Ghana and Nigeria

Cogent Economics & Finance, 2022
Over the years, the traditional seed system has failed to deliver quality seed yam for propagation. This is due to the high incidence and severity of the yam mosaic virus leading to yield losses of 52.6%–65.4%.

Osteohistological evidence for terrestrial adaptation and an extended growth period in mekosuchine crocodylians and its potential role in their extinction

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Australasian crocodylian fossil record is dominated by the extinct endemic clade Mekosuchinae, with known members spanning the Eocene‐to‐Holocene. This diverse clade exhibited high morphological disparity, from early members superficially similar to Crocodylus, to more terrestrial forms later in the clade's evolutionary history.

Framing National Education in Hong Kong: A frame analysis of power dynamics in stakeholders' competing narratives

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how national education in Hong Kong functions as a contested arena in which state and non‐state actors struggle over the meaning of citizenship, identity and schooling. Using inductive frame analysis of 319 news articles (2020–2025) from five Chinese‐ and English‐language outlets, it identifies diagnostic, prognostic and ...
