Yellow dwarf viruses (YDVs) spread by aphids are some of the most economically important barley () virus-vector complexes worldwide. Detection and control of these viruses are critical components in the production of barley, wheat, and numerous other grasses of agricultural importance. Genetic control of plant diseases is often preferable to chemical control to reduce the environmental and economic cost of foliar insecticides.

Minimal proteomic changes are observed upon either SARM1 depletion or activation, suggesting that SARM1 does not exert broad effects on neuronal protein homeostasis. However, whether SARM1 activation occurs throughout the neuron in response to injury and cell stress remains largely unknown.

- The Gaussian observational model for edge to center heterogeneity (GOMECH) is introduced as a new method for analyzing the horizontal chemical structure of smoke plumes.
- GOMECH uses data from short-lived emissions and long-lived tracers like CO to quantify plume width and center, validated by studying OH and NO oxidation processes in smoke from the FIREX-AQ study.
- Findings highlight that nitrous acid (HONO) and phenolic emissions are narrower than CO, indicating more losses at the plume edges, while NO production is concentrated at the plume center, with a significant connection between nitrocatechol aerosol and NO production confirmed by large eddy simulations.
