Utilization of Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) wastes for bioethanol production using Pichia kudriavzevii strains by Folake T. Afolabi, Ibukun E. Ola

“…Moreover, the Pichia kudriavzevii strains could be recommended for bioethanol production at 30 % inoculum size, on using sucrose as a carbon source and yeast extract as a nitrogen source. On using the Fourier-Transform Infrared (FTI) spectroscopy, the detected functional group of the produced bioethanol was O-H group. …”

Frontotemporal lobar degeneration changes neuronal beta-frequency dynamics during the mismatch negativity response by Alistair Perry, Laura E. Hughes, Natalie E. Adams, Michelle Naessens, Niels A. Kloosterman, Matthew A. Rouse, Alexander G. Murley, Duncan Street, P. Simon Jones, James B. Rowe

“…Across bvFTD and PSP groups, the beta response to deviant stimuli (relative to standard stimuli) correlated with clinical severity, but not with atrophy of the prefrontal source region. These findings confirm the proposed importance of higher-order cortical regions, and their beta-power generators, in sensory change detection and context-updating during oddball paradigms. …”

Stage-specific metabolic allocation: nutrient investment strategies during Lysiphlebia japonica Ashmead development by Tingting Zhou, Ningbo Huangfu, Li Wang, Junyu Luo, Jinjie Cui, Xiangzhen Zhu, Sumei Wan, Xueke Gao

“…Nutrients, particularly lipids and energy-related metabolites, play a critical role in shaping stage-specific growth and survival strategies in parasitic wasps.MethodsTo analyze the allocation patterns of metabolite resources during development of parasitoid wasps, the multi-omics analysis was employed to systematically investigate nutrient dynamics across three growth periods in Lysiphlebia japonica Ashmead, a major parasitoid of cotton aphid (Aphis gossypii Glover).ResultsHere, a total of 753 metabolites were detected by untargeted metabolomics, with numerous nutritionally critical compounds including amino acids, fatty acids and carbohydrates showed stage-specific variations. …”

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. …”

Genomic signal selection analysis reveals genes related to the lambing trait of Hotan sheep by XinKun Wang, Wei Li, QiaoYan Huang, HuiPing Sun, LeXiao Zhu, RuoHuai Gu, Feng Xing

“…We identified 290 selected regions and 332 genes across the Hotan sheep genome by using two widely adopted selective scanning detection methods (FST statistics and Piratio). Functional annotation and enrichment analysis of these genes identified 13 genes associated with the lambing rate, which were enriched in pathways such as the transforming growth factor-β signaling pathway (BMPR2, ID2, SMAD7, THBS1, and RBX1), renal cell carcinoma (PAK1, ELOC), inositol phosphate metabolism (PLCZ), non-homologous terminal junction (RAD50), ABC transporters (ABCC4), and the NET pathway (H2B, H4, and H2A). …”
