摘要:Predicting the genetic consequences of population decline is a major problem in conservation genomics. Time lags following demographic bottlenecks can delay genomic erosion and make it difficult to determine a population's current and future risk, especially when prebottleneck genomic baselines are unavailable. Black abalone (Haliotis cracherodii) suffered a severe disease bottleneck in the 1980s, resulting in an estimated 99% population decline. However, recent work found surprisingly high ge...

摘要:Moir & eacute; superlattices in two-dimensional (2D) materials have been realized through lattice mismatch or rotational misalignment between atomic layers. Here, we extend moir & eacute; formation to heterostrain in transition metal dichalcogenides using a scalable process that deterministically induces strain to 2D materials. By applying patterned thin-film stressors and probing the resulting atomic structure with scanning transmission electron microscopy, we directly resolve the induced het...

摘要:The ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH) is a key regulator of energy homeostasis, linking central neural activity to peripheral metabolic function. Within the VMH, neurons expressing steroidogenic factor-1 (SF-1; VMHSF1) are essential for regulating energy expenditure, yet the projection-defined pathways through which they differentially control distinct adipose depots remains unclear. Here, we use projection-specific optogenetic and chemogenetic manipulations in SF1-Cre mice to identify two anato...

摘要:Escalating pressures of global climate change necessitate developing agricultural systems and crop varieties with enhanced resilience. Polyploidy, the state of possessing multiple complete sets of chromosomes arising from whole genome duplication (WGD), is a major evolutionary force in plants, often conferring novel genetic and regulatory capacities that facilitate adaptation. Allotetraploid cotton (Gossypium spp.), which formed through the merger of distinct A and D subgenomes approximately 1...

摘要:Photovoltaic subretinal prosthesis can restore central vision in patients blinded by age-related macular degeneration with letter acuity matching its 100 & micro;m pixel size. Improving resolution requires smaller pixels, but to still reach the target neurons, electric field should be less confined. However, wide-spreading field may engage adjacent photoreceptors and alter the visual perception. We studied the effects of residual photoreceptors on retinal responses to electrical stimulation us...

摘要:Convection in porous materials governs heat transport across scales ranging from planetary subsurface systems to engineered cooling devices. While the onset of buoyancy-driven flow is well described by linear stability theory within a porous-continuum representation, the subsequent transition from viscous, matrix-dominated convection toward inertia-influenced and ultimately bulk fluid-like plume convection has lacked a unified description. Here we develop a confinement-based scaling framework ...

摘要:Land conservation initiatives worldwide are poised to continue rapid growth. Ranging in scale, scope, and mechanisms, these efforts include area-based conservation, incentive-based protection, and community collective management. Evidence from across fields now indicates that it is possible for land conservation to jointly improve environmental conditions, generate positive net local economic benefits, and support social equity. Yet the key policy elements that can lead to this type of multidi...

摘要:During the terminal Pleistocene through Holocene, changes in dietary diversity signaled fundamental shifts in the way humans related to food resources in many parts of the globe. To understand local and regional dietary variation across the transition to food production in Kenya and Tanzania, we compare isotopic values of biological tissues (tooth enamel and bone collagen) from 111 ancient foragers and herders dated similar to 9,500-230 B.P., alongside isotopic data from contemporary eastern A...

摘要:Nanophase metallic iron (npFe0) in lunar soils is a key indicator for understanding the space weathering mechanisms of airless bodies. However, the detailed three-dimensional (3D) spatial topology and distribution of layered npFe0 have rarely been documented in lunar soil samples. Here, we reveal the unique 3D spatial multilayered distributions and morphologies of npFe0 in the Chang'e-5 impact glass using a combination of electron tomography and spectroscopic techniques, demonstrating that npF...

摘要:Amyloid formation and liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) are two important phenomena in cellular biology, linked to both normal physiological functions and various pathologies. Here, we present a computational framework that scores amyloid propensities (amyloid-predict) or LLPS propensities (LLPS-predict) from protein language model embeddings, enabling rapid proteome-wide annotation of peptides and residues. amyloid-predict achieves classification performance that exceeds existing AI and p...
