Abstract The recessive tall rice (Oryza sativa) mutant elongated uppermost internode (eui) is morphologically normal until its final elongates drastically at the heading stage. stage-specific developmental effect of eui mutation has been used in breeding hybrid to improve performance male sterile cultivars. We found that accumulated exceptionally large amounts biologically active gibberellins (GAs) internode. Map-based cloning revealed Eui gene encodes a previously uncharacterized cytochrome...
Single-crystal semiconductor-based photocatalysts exposing unique crystallographic facets show promising applications in energy and environmental technologies; however, crystal facet engineering through solid-state synthesis for photocatalytic overall water splitting is still challenging. Herein, we develop a novel strategy recrystallization to synthesize uniform SrTiO3 single crystals tailored {111} facets. The presynthesized low-crystalline precursors enable the formation of well-defined...
Four species of Tubificinae (Oligochaeta: Naididae), Tubifex laxus n. sp., gracilentus conicus He, Wang & Cui, 2012, and tubifex (Müller, 1774) are reported from Tibet, China. T. sp. is distinguished allied by relatively wide atria. differs congeners in extremely thin long penial sheaths. redefined as a that lacks spermathecae. redescribed here has slightly hirsute hair chaetae, cuticle rings around the penes spermathecae with empty ampullae.
Rabbits are one of the few mammalian species that appear to be resistant transmissible spongiform encephalopathies due structural characteristics rabbit prion protein (RaPrP(C)) itself. Here, we determined solution structures recombinant RaPrP(C)-(91-228) and its S173N variant detected backbone dynamics their structured C-terminal domains-(121-228). In contrast many other PrP(C)s, loop 165-172, which connects β-sheet-2 α-helix-2, is well-defined in RaPrP(C). For first time, order parameters...
Fast and nondestructive approaches of measuring plant species diversity have been a subject excessive scientific curiosity disquiet to environmentalists field ecologists worldwide. In this study, we measured the hyperspectral reflectances indices at fine scale (0.8 meter) in central Hunshandak Sandland Inner Mongolia, China. The first-order derivative value (FD) each waveband 37 were used assess diversity. Results demonstrated that stepwise linear regression FD can accurately estimate...
Accumulation of toxic heavy metals and metalloids (THMMs) in crop grain remarkably affects food safety human health. Reducing the content THMMs requires identification manipulation genes regulating their accumulation. This study aimed to determine genetic variations affecting THMM accumulation rice by using association mapping. We used 276 accessions with 416 K single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) performed genome-wide analysis concentrations grown heavily multi-contaminated farmlands....
Abstract Background Most of the rice varieties are pubescent. However, presence trichomes is an undesirable characteristic in production because can cause atmospheric pollution. The use glabrous represents a solution to this problem. Yunnan Nuda Rice, cultivar that constitutes approximately 20% germplasms provide important recourse for breeding varieties. Results “Nuda” phenotype Rice was found be controlled by single recessive allelic gene within well-characterized GL-1 locus. A...
Abstract Timely monitoring of global plant biogeochemical processes demands fast and highly accurate estimation nutrition status, which is often estimated based on hyperspectral data. However, few such studies have been conducted degraded vegetation. In this study, complete combinations either original reflectance or first-order derivative spectra developed to quantify leaf nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K) contents tree, shrub, grass species using datasets from light, moderate,...
The increasing prevalence of verbal aphasia, exacerbated by the rise digital communication and internet slang, has highlighted need for innovative solutions to assist individuals with this condition. In response demand, we have developed Capso. This advanced application leverages cutting-edge AI technology, specifically LLaMA 2 & BLIP-2 language model, generate personalized stylistically diverse captions from user-provided images. By addressing challenges Capso not only aids in but also...
The "magic methyl effect" has facilitated the successful development of numerous pharmaceutical compounds. During HsClpP activators, we found that incorporating groups into bicyclic imipridone scaffolds significantly enhanced activator activity at enzymatic level. Further structure-activity relationship studies led to identification a highly promising compound, CLPP-2068, which exhibited an EC50 value 50.4 nM. Cryo-electron microscopy techniques and computational analyses demonstrated...
Circadian syndrome (CircS) may be closely linked to lifestyle, psychological, and occupational factors, but evidence is lacking. This study aimed explore complex associations between factors CircS among employed people in southwestern China. In this study, network analysis was used identify from the Chinese Cohort of Working Adults (CCWA). The centrality each variable estimated by strength index, which calculated sum edge weights connected variable. Bridge identified as variables top 80th...
Amorphous alloys have become a research hotpot in the field of materials physics due to their unique long-range disordered structure and excellent physical properties.

Background The conformational conversion of the host-derived cellular prion protein (PrPC) into disease-associated scrapie isoform (PrPSc) is responsible for pathogenesis transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs). Various single-point mutations in PrPCs could cause structural changes and thereby distinctly influence conversion. Elucidation differences between wild-type rabbit PrPC (RaPrPC) various mutants would be great help to understand ability RaPrPC resistant TSE agents....
Numerous spectral indices have been developed to assess plant diversity. However, since they are in different areas and vegetation type, it is difficult make a comprehensive comparison among these indices. The primary objective of this study was explore the optimum that can predict species richness across communities sandy grassland. We use 7339 (7217 we 122 were extracted from literature) using two-year dataset spectra information at 270 plots. For analysis, employed cluster correlation...
The ubiquitin-interacting motif (UIM) is a short peptide with dual function of binding ubiquitin (Ub) and promoting ubiquitination. We elucidated the structures dynamics tandem UIMs ataxin-3 (AT3-UIM12) both in free Ub-bound forms. solution structure AT3-UIM12 consists two α-helices flexible linker, whereas that form much more compact hydrophobic contacts between helices. NMR indicates linker becomes rigid when binds Ub. Isothermal titration calorimetry demonstrate diUb distinct affinities,...
