Hydrogels of numerous chemical compositions have achieved high fracture toughness on the basis one physical principle. As a crack advances in such hydrogel, polymer network strong bonds ruptures at front and elicits energy dissipation bulk hydrogel. The constituent that dissipates hydrogel is called toughener. A hypothesis has emerged recently tougheners increase greatly but contribute little to fatigue threshold. Here we ascertain this by studying hydrogels two kinds, identical all aspects...
Abstract In recent decades, artificial selection has contributed greatly to meeting the demands for animal meat, eggs, and milk. However, it also resulted in changes behavior, metabolic digestive function, alterations tissue development, including brain skeleton. Our study aimed profile behavioral traits transcriptome pattern of chickens (broilers, layers, dual-purpose breeds) response selection. Broilers spent less time gathered as a group novel arena (P < 0.01), suggesting reduced...
Soft materials including elastomers and gels are widely used in applications of energy absorption, soft robotics, bioengineering, medical instruments. For many subject to loading unloading cycles, the stress required on reloading is often less than that initial loading, known as Mullins effect. Meanwhile, usually exhibit rate-dependent viscous behavior. Both effects were recently reported a new kind synthesized tough gel, with capability large deformation, high strength, extremely toughness....
Natural rubber, an important industrial raw material, is specifically synthesized in laticifers located inside the rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis Muell. Arg.) trunk. Due to absence of plasmodesmata, laticifer water balance mediated by aquaporins (AQPs). However, date, characterization H. AQPs (HbAQPs) still its infancy. In this study, 51 full-length AQP genes were identified from genome. The phylogenetic analysis assigned these five subfamilies, including 15 plasma membrane intrinsic...
Aquaporins (AQPs) are channel-forming integral membrane proteins that transport water and other small solutes across biological membranes. Despite the vital role of AQPs, to date, little is known in physic nut (Jatropha curcas L., Euphorbiaceae), an important non-edible oilseed crop with great potential for production biodiesel. In this study, 32 AQP genes were identified from genome family number relatively comparison 51 another Euphorbiaceae plant, rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis Muell....

Abstract Background The Intramuscular fat (IMF) content in meat products, which is positively correlated with quality, an important trait considered by consumers. regulation of IMF deposition species specific. However, the IMF-deposition-related mRNA and non-coding RNA their regulatory network yak ( Bos grunniens ) remain unknown. High-throughput sequencing technology provides a powerful approach for analyzing association between transcriptome-related differences specific traits animals....
Abstract Skeletal muscle is a complex heterogeneous tissue and characterizing its cellular heterogeneity transcriptional epigenetic signatures are important for understanding the details of ontogeny. In our study, we applied scRNA‐seq scATAC‐seq to investigate cell types, molecular features, regulation, patterns developing bovine skeletal from gestational, lactational adult stages. Detailed analyses were used dissect heterogeneity, deduced differentiation trajectory myogenic cells uncovered...
Interspecific hybridization plays vital roles in enriching animal diversity, while male hybrid sterility (MHS) of the offspring commonly suffered from spermatogenic arrest constitutes postzygotic reproductive isolation. Cattle-yak, cattle (Bos taurus) and yak grunniens) can serve as an ideal MHS model. Although meiotic was found to contribute cattle-yak, yet cellular characteristics developmental potentials germline cell pubertal cattle-yak remain be systematically investigated.Single-cell...
It has been long demonstrated that cage rearing (CR) deprives the animal of possibility to express natural behaviors and results in stress. However, effect system on gene expression molecular levels gut microbiome are unknown. 10-wk-old Beijing You chickens were studied parallel CR free-range (FR) systems for 30 wk, investigate behavior, microbiota composition, expression. From week 40, a match-mismatch design was conducted 5 wk. The indicated animals behaviors, evidenced by sham...
Background: Few studies have examined the relationship between family functioning, social support and quality of life in patients with anxiety disorder. There is a paucity research on disorders their predictors China. Aims: This study aimed to explore for disorder examine these elements. Methods: A total 107 who met Diagnostic Statistical Manual Mental Disorders (4th ed.; DSM-IV) criteria 80 healthy controls completed McMaster Family Assessment Device, Perceived Social Support Scale short...
Shallow water depth measurements using multispectral images are crucial for marine surveying and mapping. At present, relevant studies either depend on the use of other auxiliary data (such as field depths or column data) contain too many unknown variables, thus making these suitable only that enough visible wavebands. To solve this problem, a Quasi-Analytical Algorithm (QAA) approach is proposed in paper estimating around Weizhou Island by developing QAA to estimate diffuse attenuation...
Abstract Field surveys in the Xisha and Zhongsha archipelagos, midnorthern South China Sea, show macroalgal dominance on remote reefs that were previously dominated by corals. This study was conducted to investigate underlying mechanisms of this phenomenon. Benthic composition analyses indicated macroalgae are rare pristine 27% 81 sites, live coral cover dropped 16.3% 2015. Nearly one third corals came into direct contact with macroalgae. Further algal distribution patterns, nutrient fluxes,...
Methionine is an amino acid necessary for the growth and development of all animals. Glutathione produced during methionine metabolism can reduce damage to cells caused by oxidative stress. Supplementing restricted acids in animals scientific means will be beneficial protein synthesis, which affect bring huge economic benefits when applied actual production life. In this study, we collected three muscle tissues from 24 male Maiwa yaks, were fattened months with different concentrations their...
