The growth rate of the atmospheric abundance of methane (CH4) reached a record high of 15.4 ppb yr−1 between 2020 and 2022, but the mechanisms driv ...

Development of single-component organic phosphor attracts increasing interest due to its wide applications in optoelectronic technologies. Theoreti ...

Many cities seek to alleviate extreme heat via planting trees. However, the cooling achieved by such programs is debated because previous analyses address scales much smaller than the whole-city scale ...

The multiple challenges of managing large-scale PV wastes demand a proactive approach; the costs of being underprepared or unprepared far outweigh those of early preparation. We must anticipate the ...

Haplotype-resolved genome assemblies were produced for Chasselas and Ugni Blanc, two heterozygous Vitis vinifera cultivars by combining high-fideli ...

Root development is tightly controlled by light, and the response is thought to depend on signal transmission from the shoot. Here, we show that th ...

The brain is a complex system operating out of equilibrium with time-irreversible dynamics. Existing measures of irreversibility cannot identify which multivariate interactions display particularly ...

Growing evidence has highlighted the role of small RNAs (sRNA) as trafficking effectors for cross-kingdom RNA interference (RNAi) between interacting organisms. Yet, it remains unknown whether ...

During arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) symbiosis AM fungi form tree-shaped structures called arbuscules in root cortex cells of host plants. Arbuscules and their host cells are central for reciprocal ...

Biomass-burning organic aerosol (s) (BBOA) not only significantly impact Earth’s climate by absorbing solar radiation but also generate excited triplet states (3 BBOA *) that react with other ...

Mutualistic arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi provide plants with mineral nutrients in exchange for carbon. Plants tightly control AM symbiosis and microbial symbionts interfere with host signaling to ...

Moiré excitons in van der Waals (vdW) structures are of particular interest for both fundamental science and cutting-edge applications. The recent discovery of two-dimensional (2D) magnetic ...
