Article describes how previous studies have shown that human platelets and megakaryocytes carry microRNAs suggesting their role in platelet function and megakaryocyte development. In their laboratory, the authors identified 15 microRNAs in thrombocytes using single-cell RNA sequencing.

Article discusses how integrated pest management (IPM) is a wide-ranging strategy that involves tactics for the structural control of pests and diseases, also known as integrated pest control (IPC). The authors' prime aim of this study is to explore global scientific publications regarding integrated pest management and map the recent global trends in this innovative research domain, thereby providing future research directions based on dynamic observations.

Article asserts that the world’s population is projected to increase by two billion by 2050, resulting in food and energy insecurity. This review provides a summary of the current knowledge of oil metabolism and discusses how photochemical activity and unconventional pathways can contribute to high carbon conversion efficiency in seeds.

Article describes how proanthocyanidins (PAs) are natural flavan-3-ol polymers that contribute protection to plants under biotic and abiotic stress, benefits to human health, and bitterness and astringency to food products. This review extends the conventional understanding with recent findings that provide new insights to address lingering questions and focus strategies for manipulating PA traits in plants.

Article describes a new taxon of terrestrial bird of the genus Aphrastura (rayaditos) inhabiting the Diego Ramírez Archipelago, the southernmost point of the American continent. The authors state that the discovery of this endemic passerine highlights the need to monitor and conserve this still-pristine archipelago devoid of exotic species, which is now protected by the recently created Diego Ramírez Islands-Drake Passage Marine Park.

The authors of the article used pheasants (Phasianus colchicus) across South Dakota, USA as a model species to identify environmental factors driving spatiotemporal variation in population productivity. They found that the amount of grassland at a local spatial scale was the primary factor influencing an area being a HotSpot.

Article presents quasi-simultaneous X-ray and rest-frame UV observations of quasi-stellar object (QSO) z = 6.025 QSO J1641+3755.

Article presents an Arabidopsis gene co-expression network constructed using RNA-Seq datasets, which will serve as a useful resource for the Arabidopsis research community to gain insights into Arabidopsis gene interactions and functions.

Article performing and analyzing two-layer high-throughput calculations.

This article presents a critical comparison of continuum diffuse-layer models that can be coupled to an atomistic first-principles description of the charged metal surface in order to account for the electrolyte screening at electrified interfaces.

Article demonstrates an efficient electro-optical modulation by using an edge-plasmon mode specific for the hybrid plasmonic waveguide.

Article using contrast image processing to estimate the concentration of multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) in a given network.

Article reports observations of two Subarctic North Pacific puffin species in the North Atlantic near the coast of north-west Greenland.

This article demonstrates that shows both CO2 and RubisCO are essential for M. capsulatus Bath growth. CO2 tracing experiments supported that RubisCO mediates CO2 fixation and that a noncanonical Calvin cycle is active in this organism. The study provides insights into the expanding knowledge of methanotroph metabolism and implicates dually CH4/CO2-utilizing bacteria as more important players in the biogeochemical carbon cycle than previously appreciated. In addition, M. capsulatus and other methanotrophs with CO2 assimilation capacity represent candidate organisms for the development of biotechnologies to mitigate the two most abundant greenhouse gases, CH4 and CO2.

This article uses a discovery driven comparative proteomics analysis to reveal unique early signaling response of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae on the proteome level to oxidants with a different mechanism of action as early as 3 min after treatment with four oxidants, namely H₂O₂, cumene hydroperoxide (CHP), and menadione and diamide, when protein abundances were compared using label-free quantification relying on a high-resolution mass analyzer (Orbitrap).

This article presents a novel method of in-situ investigation of the device corrosion process to capture the real time mechanistic information not obtained in standard reliability testing.

Article studying seedlings of wild-type and different mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana plants subjected to a multifactorial stress combination of six different stresses, each applied at a low level, and their survival, physiological and molecular responses. Findings reveal that further polluting our environment could result in higher complexities of multifactorial stress combinations that in turn could drive a critical decline in plant growth and survival.

Article discusses concerns and controversy related to the gold mining ‘Volta Grande Project’ at the Xingu River in northern Brazil.

Article describes a study in which a novel high-throughput ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC–MS/MS) method was established to quantify the levels of 19 flavonoids and 15 other phenolic compounds, including acids, aldehydes, and alcohols.

This article contains a systematic investigation of the nature of the nontrivial interface states in topological/normal insulator (TI/NI) heterostructures.

This article systematically investigates the degree of functionalization and the key structural features of the N-G/C₆₀ hybrid by a number of techniques including thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray photoelectron and Raman spectroscopies and transmission electron and atomic force microscopies.

This article investigates the population of high-redshift (3≤z<6) active galactic nuclei (AGN) selected in the two deepest X-ray surveys, the 7 Ms Chandra Deep Field-South and 2 Ms Chandra Deep Field-North.

This paper from the 2016 Conference on Application of Accelerators in Research and Industry conference proceedings describes an attempt to observe an atomic bismuth monolayer with Rutherford backscattering to demonstrate the surface concentration of the bismuth over the alloy in the bulk.

This article proposes a social model of spontaneous self-organization generating criticality and resilience, called Self-Organized Temporal Criticality (SOTC).
