This article explores swimming stamina in fish. Mature adult zebrafish (Danio rerio) were subjected to a swimming performance test and then bred within performance groups to discover if enhanced swimming stamina in offspring appears only in juveniles/adults, or if these traits appear as early as larvae.

This article discusses development plasticity of cardiorespiratory physiology in two air-breathing anabantid fishes.

This article presents Tinker-HP, a massively MPI parallel package dedicated to classical molecular dynamics (MD) and to multiscale simulations, using advanced polarizable force fields (PFF) encompassing distributed multipoles electrostatics.

Abstract: Errors are found in the mathematical correlation based on the combined Jouyban-Acree and Modified Apelblat model for describing the variation in the mole fraction solubility of cefpiramide with temperature and solvent composition for the binary aqueous-ethanol solvent system. The equation coefficents given by Tang and coworkers, when substituted into the model equation, do not yield the authors' calculated mole fraction solubilities of cefpiramide.

This article describes the identification and functional characterization of three switchgrass green tissue-specific promoters in endogenous plant tissues as well as in transgenic rice.

This article addresses the question of how teams cope with environmental threats by investigating two drivers of team resilience: the team size and the density of social interactions among team members.

This article presents a combination of computational and experimental approaches to develop gene regulatory networks for lignin formation in switchgrass (Panicum virgatum), which has been selected as a biofuel crop in the United States.

This article describes a study investigating the maturation of convective oxygen transport in embryos of the snapping turtle (Chelydra serpentina). Measurements included: mass, oxygen consumption, heart rate, blood oxygen content and affinity and blood flow distribution at 50%, 70% and 90% of the incubation period.

This roadmap article presents an overview of the current state of computational materials prediction, synthesis and characterization approaches, materials design needs for various technologies, and future challenges and opportunities that must be addressed.

Article presenting the idea of lattice quantum magnetometry, i.e., quantum sensing of magnetic fields by a charged (spinless) particle placed on a finite two-dimensional lattice.

Article studying a heavy-heavy-light three-body system confined to one space dimension.

Article studying water regulation during hypoxia in euryhaline killifish.

This article focuses on the effects of mild annealing on the structural and physical properties of the MoS₂ by heating the nanosheets in air and vacuum up to 350 °C. It was found that the annealing leads to an increase in resistivity for the nanosheets by 3 orders of magnitude, the appearance of two absorption bands in the visible range, and a hydrophilic to hydrophobic change in the surface wetting properties. Overall, this study provides another way to control the electrical, optical, and surface properties of MoS₂ nanosheets for fulfilling the needs of various applications.

This article is a review cataloging and contextualizing all of the plant genes currently known to be required for SNF in two model legume species, Medicago truncatula and Lotus japonicus, and two crop species, Glycine max (soybean) and Phaseolus vulgaris (common bean). The authors also briefly consider the future of SNF genetics in the era of pan-genomics and genome editing.

This article is a commentary on the future of legume genetic data resources and summarizes the workshop held in March of 2019 by the Legume Genomic Data Working Group that addressed questions of data resources and priorities for legumes.

Article describes study analyzing the effects of a new purine derivative drug, PDD005, in attenuating mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases, using both in vivo and in vitro models.

Article describes study investigating spin Hall effect (SHE) in two prototypical Ferroelectric Rashba semiconductors (FERSCs), GeTe and SnTe, and show that it can be large either in ferroelectric or paraelectric structure.

Article demonstrating a phononic metamaterial lens (ML) for detection of laterally subwavelength object features in tissue-like phantoms beyond the phononic crystal evanescent zone and Fresnel zone of the emitter.

This article presents a new type of push–pull charge transfer complex, viz., a spiro-locked N-heterocycle-fused zinc porphyrin, ZnP-SQ, that is shown to undergo excited state charge separation, which is enhanced by axial F⁻ binding to the Zn center. Spectroelectrochemical studies are used to identify the spectra of charge separated states and charge separation upon photoexcitation of ZnP is established.

Article using simulations and experimental measurements to design, build, and test a compact and uniform magnetic field source and then apply it to the optical pumping of atomic helium.

Article discusses how potential energy surfaces for reactions involving N2H2 isomers of diazene (diimide) have been explored using density functional theory, with energies based on coupled-cluster theory. A focus is on processes that create or consume these species, and isomerization between the E (trans) and Z (cis) forms of HNNH. This is the accepted manuscript version of the published article.

Article reviews recent evidence that protein–protein interactions in each of the three major phases of oil formation appear to have profound effects on specialized oil accumulation. This article is part of the special issue: Physiology and metabolism (2022).

Article investigating whether the EPDs of PAD4 and SAG101 contribute to EDS1 dimer functions.

Article examining effects of Low relative humidity (25–35%), and High relative humidity (85–93%) on hatchability, embryonic growth, hematology and blood gases and pH in chicken embryos.
