Drug pollution alters salmon migration

In the largest study of its kind to date, a team of international researchers has investigated how pharmaceutical pollution affects the behaviour and migration of Atlantic salmon. The study, led by the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, revealed that commonly detected environmental levels of clobazam — a medication often prescribed for sleep disorders — increased […]

AlphaFold Modeling and Computational Analysis of a PHA…

Environmental challenges related to plastic waste underscore the urgent need for innovative solutions. Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) have emerged as sustainable alternatives to conventional plastics, particularly in packaging, due to their biodegradability and biocompatibility. However, the cost of PHA production and certain physical limitations compared to synthetic polymers remain significant barriers to widespread adoption. Within this context, […]

Identification and Detection of Citrus Psorosis Virus…

Psorosis is one of major graft-transmissible diseases of Citrus; the virus was reported to occur in different Citrus cultivated areas and constitutes a serious threat to Citrus establishment and development. This study focuses on the identification of Citrus Psorosis Virus (CPsV) by tow diagnostic methods; biological indexing in indicator seedling and serological test (DAS-ELISA). Thereby, […]

Viral ‘backbone’ underlies variation in rotavirus vaccine effectiveness

Researchers have shown that differences in the entire rotavirus genome — not just its two surface proteins — affect how well vaccines work, helping to explain why some strains are more likely to infect vaccinated individuals. The study, published today as a Reviewed Preprint in eLife, is described by the editors as an important paper. […]

Researchers reveal why young plants may be more vulnerable to disease

From toddlers in daycare to seedlings in forests, young organisms tend to get sick more easily than adults — a phenomenon that has long puzzled parents and scientists alike. University of Maryland biologists offer new insights into this mysteriously universal pattern in a study published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences […]

Novel genomic screening tool enables precision reverse-engineering of genetic programming in cells

Collaborative research led by investigators at Dana-Farber/Boston Children’s Cancer and Blood Disorders Center defines a novel approach to understanding how certain proteins called transcription factors determine which genetic programs will drive cell growth and maturation. The method, called “Perturb-multiome,” uses CRISPR to knock out the function of individual transcription factors across many blood cells at […]

Scientists reprogram ant behavior using brain molecules

From the bright lights of cities that don’t sleep — where people hustle and bustle through the night to keep subways, servers, and supply chains alive — to the whisper-dark understory of tropical forests where ants hum in syncopated lines, the planet’s most intricate societies hinge on round-the-clock cooperation and finely tuned roles. Within Atta […]
