As global warming continues, events of extreme heat or heavy precipitation will become more frequent, while events of extreme cold will become less so. How wetlands around the globe will react to these extreme events is unclear yet critical, because they are among the greatest natural sources of methane(CH). Here we use seven indices of extreme climate and the rate of methane emission from global wetlands(WME) during 2000-2019 simulated by 12 published models as input data.

Here, we analyzed how emissions of CO, CH, and NO from the Zoige wetland on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) vary with the WTD. Our data indicate that the wetland shows net positive global warming potential (11.

Two-dimensional (2D) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) supported by carbon are frequently reported as promising 2e-ORR catalysts. Herein, a graphene-supported 2D MOF of Ni(2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydrotriphenylene) is synthesized through a common hydrothermal method, which exhibits high 2e-ORR performance.

While Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) AUXIN RESPONSE FACTOR 7 (ARF7) and ARF19 and their downstream transcription factors LATERAL ORGAN BOUNDARIES DOMAIN (LBD) are known to play key roles in directing callus formation, the molecules responsible for activation of root stem cell factors and thus establishment of callus pluripotency are unclear. Here, we identified Arabidopsis WRKY23 and BASIC HELIX-LOOP-HELIX 041 (bHLH041) as a transcriptional activator and repressor, respectively, of root stem cell factors during establishment of auxin-induced callus pluripotency.

Semiconductor heterojunction surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates can be used for ultra-sensitive detection of antibiotic residues in egg. Here, a TiO/ZnO heterojunction was developed as a new SERS substrate based on an interface engineering strategy.

While the catalytic efficiency is severely limited by a simultaneous and competing H evolution reaction (HER). Herein, it is proposed that the S edge of 2H-MoS , which is known as main sites to afford HER, is intentionally covered by cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) molecules through axial coordination.

Considering the variable valence characteristics of rare earth elements, they can be in a variety of valence forms coexistence. Doping of rare earth element with different valence states may produce different energy levels to tune the semiconductor energy band structure. We utilize rare earth element Ce doping TiO for the development of high-performance semiconductor surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates based on an energy-level tuning strategy.

However, whether other signals are involved in governing callus formation, and thus plant regeneration capability, remains largely unclear. Here, we report that the calcium (Ca) signaling module CALMODULIN IQ-MOTIF CONTAINING PROTEIN (CaM-IQM) interacts with auxin signaling to regulate callus and lateral root formation.

However, its migration ability in different porous media and the simultaneous release of electron donor and pH buffer during enhanced reductive dechlorination (ERD) have never been evaluated in detail. In this study, EVO-CM with uniform drop size and desirable stability was prepared.

We previously identified four Arabidopsis auxin-inducible Lateral Organ Boundaries Domain (LBD) transcription factors that govern callus formation. Here, we report that Arabidopsis basic region/leucine zipper motif 59 (AtbZIP59) transcription factor forms complexes with LBDs to direct auxin-induced callus formation.
