A survey of the Sli gene in wild and cultivated potato by Mercedes Ames, Andy Hamernik, William Behling, David S. Douches, Dennis A. Halterman, Paul C. Bethke

“…In silico analysis of Sli protein structure did not support the hypothesis that amino acid changes from wild‐type (no insertion) to insertion‐type account for changes in protein function. Our study demonstrated that genetic factors besides the Sli gene must be important for conditioning a switch in the mating system from self‐incompatible to self‐compatible in wild potatoes.…”

Cobalt (II) phthalocyanine derived Co3O4@HCNFs as highly effective bifunctional electrocatalysts for iodide redox couple reduction (IRR) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) by Ziyu Guo, Wenyu Gong, Jianing Guo, Mingxing Wu

“…The remarkable catalytic activity of Co3O4@HCNFs can be ascribed the introduced Co3O4, resulting in additional active sites of Co-N-C, and the synergistic effects between metals and carbon also accounts for the enhanced catalytic activity. Moreover, the specific hollow structure with opens at both ends is beneficial for mass diffusion to ensure sufficient contact between the electrolyte and the electrocatalysts, which is also a possible reason for the high catalytic activity of Co3O4@HCNFs. …”
