Vision of objects happens faster and earlier for location than for identity by Christian H. Poth, Werner X. Schneider

“…Visual processing was faster and started earlier for spatial location than for object identity, even though the processing of the features was (stochastically) independent. Together, these findings reveal an intrinsic preference of the human visual system for the perceptual processing of space as opposed to visual features such as categorical identity.…”

The effects of contour-based rainwater harvesting and integrated nutrient management on maize yields in semi-arid regions of Zimbabwe by Pasipanodya Chiturike, Jephta Gotosa, Innocent Wadzanai Nyakudya, Sandra M. Madamombe, Ronald Mandumbu, Ngonidzashe Chirinda, Andrew Tapiwa Kugedera, George Nyamadzawo

“…The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of contour-based rainwater harvesting (RWH) namely tied contours (TC), infiltration pits (IP) which were compared with the standard contour (STDC), and intergrated nutrient management (INM) where cattle manure was used as basal fertiliser and Ammonium Nitrate (AN) as top dressing, on maize yields. Results showed that fields with RWH had higher yields compared to STDC. …”

ROS-induced cytosolic release of mitochondrial PGAM5 promotes colorectal cancer progression by interacting with MST3 by Shiyang Wang, Xi Wu, Wenxin Bi, Jiuzhi Xu, Liyuan Hou, Guilin Li, Yuwei Pan, Hanfu Zhang, Mengzhen Li, Sujuan Du, Mingxin Zhang, Di Liu, Shuiling Jin, Xiaojing Shi, Yuhua Tian, Jianwei Shuai, Maksim V. Plikus, Moshi Song, Zhaocai Zhou, Lu Yu, Cong Lv, Zhengquan Yu

“…Importantly, depletion of MST3 reciprocally promotes accumulation of cytosolic PGAM5 by inducing mitochondrial damage. Taken together, these findings demonstrate how mtROS promotes CRC progression by activating YAP via a post-transcriptional positive feedback loop between PGAM5 and MST3, both of which can serve as potential targets for developing next-generation anti-colon cancer therapeutics.…”

Water homeostasis gene expression in the kidney of broilers divergently selected for water conversion ratio by Kentu Lassiter, Loujain Aloui, Elizabeth S. Greene, Marciela Maqaeda, Travis Tabler, Sami Dridi, Robert F. Wideman, Jr., Sara Orlowski, Walter G. Bottje

“…The renal expression of heat shock proteins 70 and 90, AVP receptor 2 (AVPR2), AGT, renin, AT1/2, and AQP1was significantly upregulated in HS compared to TN birds, however AVPR2 expression was significantly higher in HWE compared to MRB birds. Together, the up-regulation of AVP, the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), and AQP in HWE, female, or under HS conditions suggests a better renal water reabsorption to support water use efficiency.…”

Chemical Safety and Quality Attributes of Dried Sausage Snacks Stored in Modified Atmosphere by Jagoda Majcherczyk, Ireneusz Maciejaszek, Krzysztof Surówka

“…The results of a sensory and instrumental evaluation of colour and texture showed that significantly greater changes in these parameters were caused by drying the sausage rather than during subsequent storage of the produced snacks. Although total viable count increased and reached a maximum value of 6.5 log CFU g−1 after 70 days of storage at 20±1°C, Enterobacteriaceae were not detected. …”
