Key message A major and stably expressed QTL for spikelet number per spike identified in a 2-cM interval on chromosome arm 2DS was validated using two populations with different genetic backgrounds. Spikelet number per spike (SNS) plays a key role in wheat yield improvement. Numerous genetic and env...

This paper presents the explicit mapping relations between topological structure and position and orientation characteristic (POC) of mechanism motion output. It deals with (1) the symbolic representation and the invariant property of the topological structure of the mechanism, (2) the matrix repres...

Abstract Interfacial ligand passivation engineering has recently been recognized as a promising avenue, contributing simultaneously to the optoelectronic characteristics and moisture/operation tolerance of perovskite solar cells. To further achieve a win‐win situation of both performance and stabili...

ABSTRACT Atmospheric rivers (ARs), filamentary patterns of strong water vapour fluxes, play a prominent role in global poleward moisture transport and have profound impacts on extreme rainfalls (ERs). Previous AR research has mainly focused on the mid‐latitude regions, whereas the characteristics of...

The presence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in water environments has been linked to a slew of negative health effects in both animals and humans, but the green and eco-sustainable removal technologies remain largely unknown. Constructed wetland coupled microbial fuel cell (CW-MFC) i...

Norovirus (NoV) is a major cause of sporadic cases and outbreaks of acute gastroenteritis (AGE), thereby imposing threat to health globally. It is unclear how quantitation of wastewater NoV reflects the incidence of human AGE infections; therefore, we conducted this systematic review and meta-analys...

Salmonella, one of the most common food-borne pathogens, is a significant public health and economic burden worldwide. Lytic phages are viable alternatives to conventional technologies for pathogen biocontrol in food products. In this study, 40 Salmonella phages were isolated from environmentally so...

BACKGROUND: Viral infection causes multiple forms of human cancer, and HPV infection is the primary factor in cervical carcinomas. Recent single-cell RNA-seq studies highlight the tumor heterogeneity present in most cancers, but virally induced tumors have not been studied. HeLa is a well characteri...

Bacteria belonging to the genus Paenibacillus were frequently isolated from legume nodules. The nodule-inhabiting Paenibacillus as a resource of biocontrol and plant growth-promoting endophytes has rarely been explored. This study explored the nodule-inhabiting Paenibacillus ’ antifungal activities ...

BACKGROUND: Species domestication is generally characterized by the exploitation of high-impact mutations through processes that involve complex shifting demographics of domesticated species. These include not only inbreeding and artificial selection that may lead to the emergence of evolutionary bo...

Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) which have a potential role in noninfectious diseases, may play an important role in patients with acute coronary syndrome. The goal of this study was to investigate the association of NETs and in-hospital major adverse cardiac events among patients with ST-segm...

BACKGROUND Landscape fire-sourced (LFS) air pollution is an increasing public health concern in the context of climate change. However, little is known about the attributable global, regional, and national mortality burden related to LFS air pollution. METHODS We calculated country-specific populati...

BACKGROUND Children's pneumonia is a heavy health burden. Few studies have been carried out on residential risk factors for pneumonia in children. Potential risks associated with dwelling characteristics are still unknown. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted among children in 8 cities in C...
