Visualization of Lipid Droplet Composition by Direct Organelle Mass Spectrometry

Description: Article reporting an approach that combines the visualization of individual lipid droplets (LDs), microphase extraction of lipid components from droplets, and the direct identification of lipid composition by nanospray mass spectrometry, even to the level of a single LD. The triacylglycerol (TAG) composition of LDs from several plant sources (mature cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) embryos, roots of cotton seedlings, and Arabidopsis thaliana seeds and leaves) were examined by direct organelle mass s… more

The Water-Water Cycle Is Essential for Chloroplast Protection in the Absence of Stress

Description: Article showing that knockdown Arabidopsis plants with suppressed expression of the key water-water cycle enzyme, thylakoid-attached copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (KD-SOD), are suppressed in their growth and development. This article provides e genetic evidence for the importance of the water-water cycle in protecting the photosynthetic apparatus of higher plants from photooxidative damage.

Waveguide Coupling via Magnetic Gratings with Effective Strips

Description: This article provides an overview of an approach convenient for describing intermediate gratings for two types of applications: both metafilms and the coupling of incident waves to waveguide modes or diffraction orders.

West Nile Virus risk and susceptibility in central California modeling dataset

Description: The dataset was developed to support research intended to develop a spatially explicit model that explores environmental data related to the risk of exposure to West Nile Virus (WNV), and the susceptibility to WNV disease based on demographic data of the potentially affected population. The model was developed and then tested on census tracts in an identified hot spot of WNV in central California. The dataset contains (1) U.S. Census Bureau 2010 demographic data for 1,133 census tracks in the … more

What Influences Low-cost Sensor Data Calibration? - A Systematic Assessment of Algorithms, Duration, and Predictor Selection

Description: Article describes how the low-cost sensor has changed the air quality monitoring paradigm with the capacity for efficient network expansion and community engagement. This study comprehensively assessed ten widely used data techniques, namely AdaBoost, Bayesian ridge, gradient tree boosting, K-nearest neighbors, Lasso, multivariable linear regression, neural network, random forest, ridge regression, and support vector machine.

Whole-genome survey reveals extensive variation in genetic diversity and inbreeding levels among peregrine falcon subspecies

Description: Article describes how, in efforts to prevent extinction, resource managers are often tasked with increasing genetic diversity in a population of concern to prevent inbreeding depression or improve adaptive potential in a changing environment. The authors used whole-genome resequencing to generate over two million single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from multiple individuals of all peregrine falcon subspecies.

Workflow for the Quantification of Soluble and Insoluble Carbohydrates in Soybean Seed

Description: This article develops and validates a sequential protocol for quantifying reserve and structural carbohydrates in soybean seed. It was successfully applied to eight soybean genotypes harvested from two locations, and the resulting correlations of carbohydrate and oil or protein are presented. This methodology has the potential not only to guide soybean cultivar optimization processes but also to be expanded to other crops with only slight modifications.

X-Ray Unveiling Events in a z ≈ 1.6 Active Galactic Nucleus in the 7 Ms Chandra Deep Field-South

Description: Authors of the article explain that they investigated the extreme X-ray variability of a z = 1.608 active galactic nucleus in the 7 Ms Chandra Deep Field-South (XID 403), which showed two significant X-ray brightening events.
