The position of two recently described endemic taxa in the system of the genus Saussurea (Asteraceae) by Daniil V. Yusupovsky, Elizaveta A. Pyak

“…This prompted us to undertake an investigation of the aforementioned species, with a view to clarifying their systematic position, based on an analysis of the ITS1-5.8S-ITS2, rsp16-trnQ, ndhF-rpl32, ycf4-cemA regions and a comparative morphological analysis. The results of this investigation led to the conclusion that the position of S. × magica in S. subgen. …”

New fruit waste-derived activated carbons of high adsorption performance towards metal, metalloid, and polymer species in multicomponent systems by Sylwia Kukowska, Piotr Nowicki, Katarzyna Szewczuk-Karpisz

“…Abstract The main aim of the study was to develop new fruit waste-derived activated carbons of high adsorption performance towards metals, metalloids, and polymers by the use of carbon dioxide (CO2)-consuming, microwave-assisted activation. The authors compared morphology, surface chemistry, textural parameters, and elemental composition of precursors (chokeberry seeds, black currant seeds, orange peels), as well as biochars (BCs) and activated carbons (ACs) obtained from them. …”

Minimal differences observed when comparing the morphological profiling of microglia obtained by confocal laser scanning and optical sectioning microscopy by Sânziana Godeanu, Sânziana Godeanu, Mădălina Iuliana Mușat, Anja Scheller, Anja Scheller, Eugen Osiac, Bogdan Cătălin, Bogdan Cătălin

“…In this study, we aim to investigate, using microglia branching, if cLSM and OSM can produce images with comparable morphological characteristics.ResultsBy imaging the somatosensory microglia from a tissue slice of a 3-week-old mouse and establishing morphological parameters that characterizes the microglial branching pattern, we were able to show that there is no difference in total length of the branch tree, number of branches, mean branch length and number of primary to terminal branches. …”

Poplar transformation with variable explant sources to maximize transformation efficiency by Haiwei Lu, Sara Jawdy, Jin-Gui Chen, Xiaohan Yang, Udaya C. Kalluri

“…Our results show that root explants, in addition to the above-ground tissues, have considerable regeneration capacity and amenability to A. tumefaciens and, the resulting transformants have largely comparable morphology, reporter gene expression, and transcriptome profile, independent of the explant source tissue. …”
