Caputo Fractional Derivative and Quantum-Like Coherence

Description: This article studies two forms of anomalous diffusions and discusses the joint use of these prescriptions, with a phenomenological method and a theoretical projection method, leading to two apparently different diffusion equations. The authors prove that the two diffusion equations are equivalent and design a time series that corresponds to the anomalous diffusion equation proposed.

Combined influence of soil moisture and atmospheric humidity on land surface temperature under different climatic background

Description: Article describes how soil moisture (SM) and atmospheric humidity (AH) are crucial climatic variables that significantly affect the climate system. However, the combined influencing mechanisms of SM and AH on the land surface temperature (LST) under global warming are still unclear. The authors systematically analyzed the interrelationships among annual mean values of SM, AH, and LST using ERA5-Land reanalysis data and revealed the role of SM and AH on the spatiotemporal variations of LST throu… more

Correlation consistent basis sets designed for density functional theory: Second-row (Al-Ar)

Description: Article presenting cc-pV(n+d)Z correlation consistent basis sets of double- through quintuple-ζ quality for the atoms Al-Ar that have been modified for use with density functional theory (DFT). These basis set modifications include truncation of high-angular momentum basis functions, recontraction of the s- and p-functions, and reoptimization of basis function exponents with generalized gradient approximation and hybrid-DFT functionals. The effects of basis set truncation, recontraction, and re… more

The Crucial Role of Solvation Forces in the Steric Stabilization of Nanoplatelets

Description: Article says that the steric stability of inorganic colloidal particles in an apolar solvent is usually described in terms of the balance between three contributions: the van der Waals attraction, the free energy of mixing, and the ligand compression. The authors demonstrate that for sufficiently large nanoplatelets, solvation forces are proportional to the interacting facet area, and their strength is intrinsically tied to the softness of the ligand shell.

Developmental changes in lignin composition are driven by both monolignol supply and laccase specificity

Description: Article proposes a model in which, during C-lignin biosynthesis, caffeyl alcohol noncompetitively inhibits oxidation of coniferyl alcohol by cell wall laccases, a process that might limit movement of coniferyl alcohol to the apoplast.

Diverse values of nature for sustainability

Description: Article describes how, twenty-five years since foundational publications on valuing ecosystems services for human well-being, addressing the global biodiversity crisis still implied confronting barriers to incorporating nature's diverse values into decision-making. The authors assert that a better understanding of how and why nature is (under)valued is more urgent than ever.

Effects of cultivar and nitrogen application rate on lint, seed, oil, and protein yields of field-grown cotton

Description: Article describes how the objective of this study was to evaluate the lint, seed, oil, and protein yield responses of cultivars with different seed mass and composition to N application rates (0–168 kg N ha−1) for field-grown cotton. The authors conclude that variability in the distribution of photosynthates to fiber and seed as well as seed oil and protein composition can significantly alter trends in fiber, seed, and seed component yields in response to cultivar or N application rates for fie… more

An experimental and chemical kinetic modeling study of the role of potassium in the moist oxidation of CO

Description: Article investigates the effect of KCl on moist CO oxidation in a laminar flow quartz reactor. Experiments were conducted in the absence of O2 (gasification), as well as under reducing and fuel-lean conditions, in the temperature range 873–1573 K, and the results were interpreted in terms of a chemical kinetic model.

A gene based approach to test genetic association based on an optimally weighted combination of multiple traits

Description: In this article, the authors propose a statistical method by Testing an Optimally Weighted Combination of Multiple traits (TOW-CM) to test the association between multiple traits and multiple variants in a genomic region (a gene or pathway). They investigate the performance of the proposed method through extensive simulation studies. Their simulation studies show that the proposed method has correct type I error rates and is either the most powerful test or comparable with the most powerful tes… more

Holographic Fabrication of 3D Moiré Photonic Crystals Using Circularly Polarized Laser Beams and a Spatial Light Modulator

Description: The authors of the article state that holographic fabrication of a 3D moiré photonic crystal is very difficult due to the coexistence of the bright and dark regions, where the exposure threshold is suitable for one region but not for the other. In this paper, the authors study the holographic fabrication of 3D moiré photonic crystals using an integrated system of a single reflective optical element (ROE) and a spatial light modulator (SLM) where nine beams (four inner beams + four outer beams +… more

Inhaled diesel exhaust particles result in microbiome‑related systemic inflammation and altered cardiovascular disease biomarkers in C57Bl/6 male mice

Description: Article discusses the authors' investigation the hypothesis that exposure to inhaled diesel exhaust particles alters the gut microbiome and promotes microbial-related inflammation and cardiovascular disease biomarkers. To determine whether probiotics could prevent diet or DEP exposure mediated alterations in the gut microbiome or systemic outcomes, a subset of animals on the HF diet were treated orally with 0.3 g/day (~ 7.5 × 108 CFU/day) of Winclove Ecologic® Barrier probiotics throughout the … more

LDIP cooperates with SEIPIN and LDAP to facilitate lipid droplet biogenesis in Arabidopsis

Description: Article showing that a recently identified protein termed LD-associated protein [LDAP]-interacting protein (LDIP) works together with both endoplasmic reticulum-localized SEIPIN and the LD-coat protein LDAP to facilitate LD formation in Arabidopsis thaliana. The data is discussed in the context of a new model for LD biogenesis in plant cells with evolutionary connections to LD biogenesis in other eukaryotes.

Seeing plants as never before

Description: Authors of the article assert that imaging has long supported our ability to understand the inner life of plants, their development, and response to a dynamic environment. The purpose of this review was to provide the scientific community with an overview of current imaging methods, which rely variously on either nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), mass spectrometry (MS) or infrared (IR) spectroscopy, and to present some examples of their application in order to illustrate their utility.
