Analysis of two novel midgut-specific promoters driving transgene expression in Anopheles stephensi mosquitoes. by Tony Nolan, Elisa Petris, Hans-Michael Müller, Ann Cronin, Flaminia Catteruccia, Andrea Crisanti

“…We fused 1.1 kb of the upstream regions containing the putative promoter of these genes to reporter genes and transformed these into the Indian malaria vector A. stephensi to see if we could recapitulate the expression pattern of the endogenous genes. Both the Antryp1 and G12 upstream regions were able to drive female-predominant, midgut-specific expression in transgenic mosquitoes. …”

Spatiotemporal dynamics of terrestrial vegetation carbon sinks and its response to climate change in northwest China by Xin Zhang, Chenxi Liu, Youyan Jiang

“…Furthermore, the response relationship between vegetation NEP and climate change was deeply explored by using partial correlation analysis.Results(1) From 2000 to 2023, the Northwest China has served as a carbon sink, with an average carbon sequestration of 217.26 g C·m−2·a−1 and a stable upward trend. Spatially, the regions of carbon sink exhibited a distinct zonal pattern along the China’s dry and wet climate boundary. (2) Over the 24-year period, the dynamic changes in NEP have mainly been characterized by low to moderate fluctuations, NEP in most areas of Northwest China showed an increasing trend, and future NEP is predicted to continue increasing. indicating more stable for NEP. …”
