Sub‐Diffraction and Irreversibly Tunable Imaging With Potato Starch Lenses

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Native potato starch granules function as sustainable birefringent microlenses that enable polarization‐controlled conventional and vortex lensing via spin‐to‐orbital angular momentum conversion. They provide sub‐diffraction and spiral‐contrast imaging, support vortex‐array generation with controllable topological‐charge sign, exhibit irreversible ...

Evaluation of dietary yeast derived mannan oligosaccharide for pacific whiteleg shrimp Penaeus vannamei: Effects on growth performance, immune response, hepatopancreas morphology and resilience to infection against Vibrio parahaemolyticus

Aquaculture Reports
With trends towards low fishmeal and higher plant ingredient-based diets for shrimp, there is consequently greater demand on feed additives to bolster the protein and nutrient profile quality for achieving more efficiency.

Auto‐Downregulation of the Florigen FT Production Prevents Precocious Flowering in Plants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study shows that the leaf vein‐expressed FD complexes with the florigen FT to bind DNA motifs in FT promoter, which antagonizes CONSTANS‐mediated FT activation to feedback down‐regulate FT expression. This prevents an excessive induction of FT expression by inductive photoperiods, thereby precluding precocious transition to flowering in ...

RNAi in the Rhizarian Phytopathogen Plasmodiophora brassicae: The Causal Agent of Clubroot Disease in Cruciferous Crops

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers an unusual RNAi pathway in the rhizarian pathogen Plasmodiophora brassicae. In the absence of Dicer, a Drosha‐like RNase III protein supports the biogenesis of predominant 21‐nt small RNAs, and two Argonaute proteins mediate small RNA‐guided silencing.
