The phenomenon of solid dissolution into a solution constitutes a fundamental aspect in both natural and industrial contexts. Nevertheless, its intricate nature at the microscale poses a significant challenge for precise quantitative characterization at a foundational level. In this work, the influence across three specific cleavage planes, namely (100), (111), and (110) on the dissolution kinetics of fluorite in aqueous environments was examined from both experimental and theoretical standpoints.

The COVID-19 pandemic (and its aftermath) highlights a critical need to communicate health information effectively to the global public. Given that subtle differences in information framing can have meaningful effects on behavior, behavioral science research highlights a pressing question: Is it more effective to frame COVID-19 health messages in terms of potential losses (e.g.

Transcriptional silencing of 35S rDNA loci inherited from one parental species is occurring relatively frequently in allopolyploids. However, molecular mechanisms by which it is selected for transcriptional silencing remain unclear. We applied NGS, silver staining and bisulfite sequencing to study the structure, expression and methylation landscape of 35S rDNA in two allopolyploids of common origin, allotetraploid (2 = 4 = 32, genome composition BBDD) and allohexaploid (2 = 6 = 48, AABBDD), and their genome donors, (2 = 16, AA), (2 = 16, BB) and (2 = 16, DD).
