Significance A tumor comprising many cells can be compared to a natural population with individuals. The amount of genetic diversity reflects how it has evolved and influence its future evolution. We evaluated single by sequencing or genotyping nearly 300 regions from the tumor. When data were analyzed modern theory, we estimated more than 100 million coding region mutations in this unexceptional extreme implies evolution under non-Darwinian mode. In contrast, prevailing view Darwinian...
Grain number and size are interactive agronomic traits that determine grain yield. However, the molecular mechanisms responsible for coordinating trade-off between these remain elusive. Here, we characterized rice (Oryza sativa) number1 (gsn1) mutant, which has larger grains but sparser panicles than wild type due to disordered localized cell differentiation proliferation. GSN1 encodes mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase OsMKP1, a dual-specificity of unknown function. Reduced...
The Yunkai massif is a key region to decipher the tectonic evolution of south China block since contained high‐grade metamorphic rocks experienced polyphase deformation. earliest event (D 1 ) corresponds top‐to‐the‐northwest ductile shearing, coeval with amphibolite facies metamorphism, probably developed during postorogenic synmigmatization extensional occurred in early Paleozoic time. main deformation 2 top‐to‐the‐northeast Mesozoic time, greenschist metamorphism and associated development...
As a typical warm-season grass, Bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L).Pers.] is widely applied in turf systems and animal husbandry. However, cold temperature key factor limiting resource utilization for Bermudagrass. Therefore, it relevant to study the mechanisms by which Burmudagrass responds cold. Melatonin crucial plant hormone that responsible abiotic stress responses. The objective of this was investigate role melatonin response Wild pre-treated with 100 μM subjected different treatments...
The pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) relationship for polymyxin B against Klebsiella pneumoniae infections is not known.Dose-fractionation studies with subcutaneous were conducted in neutropenic mice which infection three strains of K. had been produced thighs or lungs. Dosing (thigh 0.5-120 mg/kg/day; lung 5-120 mg/kg/day) commenced 2 h after inoculation, and bacterial burden was measured 24 later. Plasma exposure measures unbound from population pharmacokinetic analysis single doses...
Animal behavior usually has a hierarchical structure and dynamics. Therefore, to understand how the neural system coordinates with behaviors, neuroscientists need quantitative description of dynamics different behaviors. However, recent end-to-end machine-learning-based methods for analysis mostly focus on recognizing behavioral identities static timescale or based limited observations. These approaches lose rich dynamic information cross-scale Here, inspired by natural animal we address...
Identifying nanoscale biomolecules in aqueous solutions by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) provides an situ and noninvasive method for exploring the structure, reactions, transport of biologically active molecules. However, this remains a challenge due to strong broad IR absorption water which overwhelms respective vibrational fingerprints biomolecules. In work, tunable transparent microfluidic system with graphene plasmons is exploited identify ≈2 nm-thick proteins...
Abstract The identification of genes involved in salinity tolerance has primarily focused on model plants and crops. However, naturally adapted to highly saline environments offer valuable insights into extreme salinity. Salicornia grow coastal salt marshes, stimulated by NaCl. To understand this tolerance, we generated genome sequences two species analyzed the transcriptomic proteomic responses bigelovii Subcellular membrane proteomes reveal that SbiSOS1, a homolog well-known...
Evolution fine-tunes biological pathways to achieve a robust cellular physiology. Two and half billion years ago, rapidly rising levels of oxygen as byproduct blooming cyanobacterial photosynthesis resulted in redox upshift microbial energetics. The appearance higher-redox-potential respiratory quinone, ubiquinone (UQ), is believed be an adaptive response this environmental transition. However, the majority bacterial species are still dependent on ancient naphthoquinone (NQ)....
Significance The exploration of chiral active matter composed self-spinning objects, which breaks both parity and time-reversal symmetries, is an exciting rapidly developing area. A particularly interesting phenomenon the emergence a spontaneous unidirectional collective edge flow in confinement, with potentials for robust material transport. This unique feature has generally been discussed context incompressible structureless homogeneous fluid. Here, we show that confinement-induced...
Broken time-reversal and parity symmetries in active spinner fluids imply a nondissipative "odd viscosity," engendering phenomena unattainable traditional passive or fluids. Here we show that the odd viscosity itself can lead to Hall-like transport when chiral fluid flows through quenched matrix of obstacles, reminiscent anomalous Hall effect. The velocity depends significantly on activity longitudinal flow due interplay between spinner-obstacle collisions. Our findings underscore importance...
Heavy metal contamination is a global problem for ecosystems and human health. Remediation of contaminated soils has received much attention in the last decade. Aided mitigation heavy phytotoxicity by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) cost-effective environmentally friendly strategy. This study was carried out to investigate effect AMF inoculation on toxicity Medicago truncatula under soil cadmium stress. Therefore, pot experiment designed evaluate growth, chlorophyll fluorescence, Cd...
Abstract Auxin is a crucial phytohormone, controlling multiple aspects of plant growth and responses to the changing environment. However, role local auxin biosynthesis in specific developmental programs remains unknown crops. This study characterized rice tillering small grain 1 ( tsg1 ) mutant, which has more tillers but smaller panicle size resulting from reduction endogenous auxin. TSG1 encodes tryptophan aminotransferase that allelic FISH BONE FIB gene. The mutant showed...
Defective insulin signaling in hepatocytes is a key factor type 2 diabetes. In obesity, activation of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) suppresses ATF6, which triggers PERK-ATF4-TRB3 pathway that disrupts signaling. Elucidating how CaMKII ATF6 therefore essential to understanding this resistance pathway. We show phosphorylates and blocks nuclear translocation histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4). As result, HDAC4-mediated SUMOylation the corepressor DACH1 decreased, protects...
Using simulations and experiments, we demonstrate that the effective interaction between passive particles in an active bath substantially depends on external constraint suffered by particles. Particularly, two free particles, which is directly measured simulation, qualitatively different from one fixed Moreover, find friction experienced particles-a kinematic constraint-similarly influences interaction. These remarkable features are significant contrast to equilibrium cases, mainly arise...
We study the properties of active noise experienced by a passive particle harmonically trapped in an bath. The bath is either explicitly simulated ensemble Brownian particles or abstractly represented colored theory. Assuming equivalence two descriptions bath, simulation system, which directly extracted fitting theoretical predictions to measurements, shown depend on constraint suffered tracer. This scenario significant contrast case thermal that independent external trap potentials....
We perform optical-tweezers experiments and mesoscale fluid simulations to study the effective interactions between two parallel plates immersed in bacterial suspensions. The are found experience a long-range attraction, which increases linearly with density decreases plate separation. higher orientation order observed imply that attraction mainly arises from flow field, instead of direct bacterium-plate collisions, is confirmed by simulations. Furthermore, hydrodynamic contribution...
Rice is an important crop in the word, and fat one of main nutrient components rice. The lipid content fatty acid composition grains significantly influences quality In this study, 94 homozygous recombination inbred lines (RILs) were developed crude them displayed a normal distribution ranging from 0.44% to 2.62%. Based on their taste quality, positive association between eating was revealed. Then, two (FH FL) selected with similar agronomic characteristics different for RNA sequencing...
