Dormancy is an essential characteristic that enables seeds to survive in unfavorable conditions while germinating when conditions are favorable. Myosin-binding proteins (MyoBs) assist in the movement of organelles along actin microfilaments by attaching to both organelles and myosins. In contrast to studies on yeast and metazoans, research on plant MyoBs is still in its early stages and primarily focuses on tip-growing cells.

- The GhMKK6-GhMPK4 MAPK signaling pathway is crucial for cotton's immunity against stresses, particularly wilt.
- Silencing the GhMPK4 gene leads to reduced resistance to wilt and lowers expression of key resistance-related genes.
- The study identified GhAP2C1 as a negative regulator in this pathway, showing that modifying its expression affects cotton's wilt resistance, clarifying the MAPK cascade's regulatory mechanisms against pathogens.
With the rapid development of society, especially the advent of intelligent technology of life services, the ability of the elderly to adapt to modern digital life is getting weaker and weaker, the dilemma of the "digital divide" for the elderly has aroused heated public debate. In the era of aging and information superposition, in-depth study of the multi-dimensional impact of the digital divide on the elderly has become an effective content of China's active aging strategy. Based on the micro-data of the Chinese General Social Survey in 2017, this paper uses the entropy right method to construct the digital divide index system for the elderly over 60 years of age from the perspective of essential equipment, Internet utilization degree, and Basic Internet usage skills.

- Odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) are crucial for odor perception in insects, but this study explores the additional roles of a specific OBP gene, AccOBP10, in Apis cerana cerana.
- The gene AccOBP10 shows high similarity to other OBP family members and is primarily expressed in the venom gland; its expression varies under different environmental stressors, indicating a complex response to conditions like low temperature and chemical exposure.
- Knocking down AccOBP10 via RNA interference revealed that it may influence the expression of some stress-related genes, suggesting that its primary function relates to stress responses rather than just odor transport.
