Alternative Splicing in Self-Renewal of Embryonic Stem Cells by Clara Y. Cheong, Thomas Lufkin

“…Progressing beyond the limitations of a fixed genomic sequence, alternative splicing offers an additional layer of complexity to produce protein variants that may differ in function and localization that can direct embryonic stem cells to specific differentiation pathways. In light of the number of variants that can be produced at key ES cell genes alone, it is challenging to consider how much more multifaceted transcriptional regulation truly is, and if this can be captured more fully in future works.…”

Rotala: A New Aquatic Invader in Southern Florida by Lyn A. Gettys, Carl J. Della Torre

“…Extremely dense submersed populations and large thick mats dominate the surface of the water, greatly reducing ecosystem services, because oxygen level and light penetration are hampered. Because the rapid and vigorous growth of rotala inhibits water flow, the ability of infested canals to function properly in flood control systems is greatly hindered. …”

The Regulatory Effect of Se-Cd Interaction on Tea Plants (<i>Camellia sinensis</i> (L.) O. Kuntze) Under Cadmium Stress by Yanyun Sun, Yueling Zhao, Hongyu Zhou, Faxing Li, Yuanyuan Wang, Xiao Du

“…The findings are as follows: (1) Cd stress notably elevated the electrical conductivity, MDA content, and proline content of tea plants, whereas the Cd + Se₁ treatment significantly reduced the MDA and proline content under Cd stress; (2) the Cd stress treatment significantly increased the content of peroxides in the tea tree leaves and significantly decreased the activities of four antioxidant enzymes, SOD, POD, CAT, and Apx; the Cd + Se treatment significantly reduced the peroxide content in tea trees under cadmium stress and significantly increased the activities of SOD, POD, CAT, and Apx; (3) the Cd stress treatment significantly increased the values of certain chlorophyll fluorescence parameters and had no significant impact on the distribution of light energy, whereas the Cd + Se treatment significantly elevated the values of some chlorophyll fluorescence parameters and induced an uneven distribution of light energy; (4) the order of accumulation of Cd in different organs of the tea plants was as follows: root > stem > leaf, and the Cd + Se treatment significantly reduced the Cd content in various organs under Cd stress. …”

Interferenceless coded aperture correlation holography for five-dimensional imaging of 3D space, spectrum and polarization by Narmada Joshi, Vipin Tiwari, Tauno Kahro, Agnes Pristy Ignatius Xavier, Tatsuki Tahara, Aarne Kasikov, Kaupo Kukli, Saulius Juodkazis, Aile Tamm, Joseph Rosen, Vijayakumar Anand

“…The proposed technique exploits the polarization-dependent light modulation characteristics of spatial light modulators to record polarization-dependent intensity distributions, which are distinguished by significant blurring between orthogonal polarization states. 5D I-COACH is implemented by inter-connecting all five dimensions in a single frame, and image recovery is attempted from different configurations of recorded point spread intensity distributions and response-to-object intensity distributions along 5D using recently developed deconvolution techniques. …”
