This study evaluates four policy options to secure the water supply needed for wetland conservation in Qixinghe—a national wetland nature reserve in China—using four criteria: cost effectiveness, probability of success in achieving the water-saving goal, political feasibility, and farmer acceptance. This multi-criteria analysis framework reveals the ecological, economic, and socio-political...

The Autographa californica M nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) sulfhydryl oxidase Ac92 is essential for production of infectious virions. Ac92 also interacts with human p53 and enhances human p53-induced apoptosis in insect cells, but it is not known whether any relationship exists between Ac92 and native p53 homologs from insect hosts of AcMNPV....

Despite the considerable advances of deposition technologies, it remains a significant challenge to form conformal deposition on surface of nanoporous carbons. Here, we introduce a new ambient hydrolysis deposition method that employs and controls pre-adsorbed water vapor on nanoporous carbons to define the deposition of TiO₂. We converted the deposited...

Water is a limiting factor for plant growth and vegetation dynamics in alpine sandy land of the Tibetan Plateau, especially with the increasing frequency of extreme precipitation events and drought caused by climate change. Therefore, a relatively stable water source from either deeper soil profiles or ground water is necessary...

The filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa responds to light in complex ways. To thoroughly
study the transcriptional response of this organism to light, RNA-seq was used to analyze capped and
polyadenylated mRNA prepared from mycelium grown for 24 hr in the dark and then exposed to light for
0 (control) 15,...

Pathogenic mycobacteria are important agents causing human disease. Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis
(M. avium) is a species of recalcitrant environmental pathogen. The bacterium forms robust biofilms that allow it to
colonize and persist in austere environments, such as residential and commercial water systems. M. avium is also an
opportunistic pathogen...

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are increasingly used in biomedical applications,
hence understanding the processes that affect their biocompatibility and stability are of
significant interest. In this study, we assessed the stability of peptide-capped AuNPs and
used the embryonic zebrafish (Danio rerio) as a vertebrate system to investigate the impact
of synthesis...
