German Colonists of Northwest Russia in Conditions of Post-Revolutionary Reality (1918-1922) by V. N. Shaidurov, V. A. Lomanov

“…The condition and functioning of German farms largely depended on the extraordinary revolutionary economic measures carried out by the Bolsheviks within the framework of equalizing land use and “war communism”, where the German village was considered as an easily accessible and high-performance source of agricultural resources for the Red Army and the urban population, which resulted in an excessively high economic burden on the colonies and a selective approach to accounting for national the specifics of the economic life of the Germans and their current economic opportunities. …”

Iterative approach for photonic crystal devices design by Pavel V. Mokshin, Dimitriy L. Golovashkin, Vladimir S. Pavelyev

“…The proposed approach differs from known general-purpose optimization methods (e.g., genetic algorithm or gradient procedures) by using diffraction pattern information at different frequencies while optimizing an element designed to operate at the selected wavelength. The design of functional PhC structures with expected characteristics (for example, waveguides) for a certain wavelength (albeit given by a monochromatic radiation source) is described. …”

Evaluation of the authenticity of Citri Grandis Exocarpium based on metabolomics and transcriptomics by Haiting Huang, Yu Liu, Jianmu Su, Xiangxiu Liang, Hong Wu, Mei Bai

“…Flavonoids related to medicinal effects, such as naringin and hesperidin, were significantly more abundant in Huazhou pomelo than in Sanhong pomelo, with compounds such as 5-demethylnobiletin detected only in Huazhou pomelo. The integrative metabolomics and transcriptomics analysis identified 11 key structural genes and transcription factors potentially involved in flavonoid biosynthesis, providing candidate targets for functional validation. …”
