OGLE-2011-BLG-0462: An Isolated Stellar-mass Black Hole Confirmed Using New HST Astrometry and Updated Photometry by Kailash C. Sahu, Jay Anderson, Stefano Casertano, Howard E. Bond, Martin Dominik, Annalisa Calamida, Andrea Bellini, Thomas M. Brown, Henry C. Ferguson, Marina Rejkuba

“…We have reanalyzed the data, including the new HST astrometry, and photometry obtained with 16 different telescopes. The source lies only $0\mathop{.}\limits^{^{\prime\prime} }4$ from a bright neighbor, making it crucial to perform precise subtraction of its point-spread function (PSF) in the astrometric measurements of the source. …”

De Novo Synthesis of Anticholinergic Hyoscyamine and Scopolamine in <i>Nicotiana benthamiana</i> Based on Elucidating Tropane Alkaloid Biosynthetic Pathway of <i>Anisodus luridus</... by Mengling Wen, Junlan Zeng, Fei Qiu, Fangyuan Zhang, Zhihua Liao

“…Its high yield of hyoscyamine makes <i>A. luridus</i> a valuable plant source for commercially producing TAs. In this study, we conduct homologous gene research across transcriptome data of different tissues together with functionally tested sequences in <i>Atropa belladonna</i> as a reference and identify 13 candidate genes for TAs biosynthesis in <i>A. luridus</i>. …”

Dissecting the genetic basis of response to salmonid alphavirus in Atlantic salmon by Domniki Manousi, Dorota Monika Jaskula, Fabian Grammes, Tim Martin Knutsen, Shahmir Naseer, Samuel AM Martin, Thomas Moen, Marie Saitou, Sigbjørn Lien

“…Additionally, another QTL on Ssa07 was detected, linked to infection-specific response. Transcriptomics analysis of the genes overlapping the Ssa03 QTL region revealed significant expression differences among three tandemly duplicated gig1-like genes, whereas allele-specific expression analysis detected several SNPs with putative functional impact on the particular genes. …”

Host selection is not a universal driver of phyllosphere community assembly among ecologically similar native New Zealand plant species by Anya S. Noble, Jaber Abbaszadeh, Charles K. Lee

“…Abstract Background A growing body of evidence demonstrates that host-associated microbial communities of plant leaf surfaces (i.e. the phyllosphere) can influence host functional traits. However, it remains unclear whether host selection is a universal driver of phyllosphere community assembly. …”
