This study shows that seasonality, not photoperiodism, affects the susceptibility of spider mites to pesticides, with toxicity increasing in spring and summer and decreasing in winter.

This study shows that multigenerational high-fat diet feeding in mice leads to improved metabolic health through microbiome adaptation, with leaner mice passing on resistance to obesity.

This paper identifies two conserved regions on the Omicron RBD recognized by broadly neutralizing antibodies and develops an inhalable bispecific antibody with broad neutralization and therapeutic efficacy in mice.

This study shows that ALA-PDT kills drug-resistant M. marinum in vitro and in a mouse model, leading to recovery of cutaneous lesions and clinical improvement in two patients.

This study investigates how salt stress affects oil palm by analyzing gene expression and stomatal development, finding that EgSPCH promotes stomatal increase which aids in salt tolerance.

The paper reanalyzes genomic data from North American chipmunks to detect cross-species gene flow using a full likelihood method, finding robust evidence for ancient nuclear introgression.

This paper identifies PsFYVE1, a novel effector from Phytophthora sojae, which modulates plant immunity by altering transcription and alternative splicing of immunity-related genes through interaction with host RNA-binding proteins.

This study shows that Serum Amyloid A (SAA) worsens acetaminophen-induced liver injury by damaging sinusoidal endothelial cells and increasing platelet aggregation.

This study identifies two antibodies from immunized macaques that neutralize HIV-1 by targeting the CD4-binding site on an occluded-open Env trimer conformation.
