The voltage is one of limited reliable information for battery management system, and the faults of voltage sampling will result in adverse effects and lead to potential risks for operation, which emphasize the importance for investigating the failure modes of voltage sampling and diagnosis algorithm. In this article, a knowledge-data driven sampling diagnosis algorithm is established and an online intelligent diagnosis algorithm is proposed accordingly based on outlier detection with fuzzy entropy. The fault diagnosis algorithm is established and evaluated under positive exploitation, where the knowledge-base of failure mode based on equivalent simulating models is firstly constructed.

In eukaryotes, topologically associating domains (TADs) organize the genome into functional compartments. While TAD-like structures are common in mammals and many plants, they are challenging to detect in Arabidopsis thaliana. Here, we demonstrate that Arabidopsis PDS5 proteins play a negative role in TAD-like domain formation.

Article Synopsis
  • The study introduces a new thermosensitive genic male sterility (TGMS) rice line, ostms15, which displays male sterility at high temperatures and fertility at low temperatures, making it a valuable resource for rice breeding.
  • The ostms15 phenotype is linked to a specific gene mutation in OsTMS15 that affects protein interactions necessary for pollen development, showing a stable sterility trait compared to the previously used tms5 line.
  • The research also highlights the potential for using base editing techniques to create various TGMS lines from OsTMS15, which could enhance breeding strategies and the understanding of similar mechanisms in other crops.

Article Synopsis
  • Polyethylene oxide (PEO) based polymer electrolytes are popular in solid-state lithium batteries due to their high lithium salt solubility, good ionic conductivity, and flexibility.
  • Several key challenges remain before PEO-based solid-state batteries can be commercially viable, including the need to improve ionic conductivity, mechanical strength, electrochemical stability, and thermal stability.
  • The text also addresses various characterization methods for understanding ion transport, lithium dendrite growth, and decomposition reactions in these batteries.

The rapid development of intelligent networked vehicles (ICVs) has brought many positive effects. Unfortunately, connecting to the outside exposes ICVs to security threats. Using secure protocols is an important approach to protect ICVs from hacker attacks and has become a hot research area for vehicle security.

Photoperiod/temperature-sensitive genic male sterility (P/TGMS) is widely applied for improving crop production. Previous investigations using the reversible male sterile (rvms) mutant showed that slow development is a general mechanism for restoring fertility to P/TGMS lines in Arabidopsis. In this work, we isolated a restorer of rvms-2 (res3), as the male sterility of rvms-2 was rescued by res3.

In recent years, Ethernet has been introduced into vehicular networks to cope with the increasing demand for bandwidth and complexity in communication networks. To exchange data between controller area network (CAN) and Ethernet, a gateway system is required to provide a communication interface. Additionally, the existence of networked devices exposes automobiles to cyber security threats.

Chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) is a powerful and widely used molecular technique for mapping whole genome locations of transcription factors (TFs), chromatin regulators, and histone modifications, as well as detecting entire genomes for uncovering TF binding patterns and histone posttranslational modifications. Chromatin-modifying activities, such as histone methylation, are often recruited to specific gene regulatory sequences, causing localized changes in chromatin structures and resulting in specific transcriptional effects. The rice blast is a devastating fungal disease on rice throughout the world and is a model system for studying fungus-plant interaction.

Article Synopsis
  • Accurate state of charge (SOC) estimation is crucial for safe battery management in automotive applications, but current systems often struggle with inaccuracy.
  • A new SOC estimation approach using an improved extended Kalman filter (IEKF) is proposed, leveraging an equivalent circuit model and a SA-PSO algorithm for better parameter identification.
  • Experimental results indicate that the IEKF significantly reduces estimation error to 2.94% under dynamic test conditions and proves robust against noise, making it suitable for real-world battery pack applications.

Histone-3-lysine-4 (H3K4) methylation is catalysed by the multiprotein complex known as the Set1/COMPASS or MLL/COMPASS-like complex, an element that is highly evolutionarily conserved from yeast to humans. However, the components and mechanisms by which the COMPASS-like complex targets the H3K4 methylation of plant-pathogenic genes in fungi remain elusive. Here we present a comprehensive analysis combining biochemical, molecular, and genome-wide approaches to characterize the roles of the COMPASS-like family in the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae, a model plant pathogen.

IEF, a novel plasma plasma membrane protein, is important for exine formation in Arabidopsis. Exine, an important part of pollen wall, is crucial for male fertility. The major component of exine is sporopollenin which are synthesized and secreted by tapetum.

Background: During anther development, the tapetum provides essential nutrients and materials for pollen development. In rice, multiple transcription factors and enzymes essential for tapetum development and pollen wall formation have been cloned from male-sterile lines.

Results: In this study, we obtained several lines in which the MYB transcription factor OsMS188 was knocked out through the CRISPR-Cas9 approach.

Measurement of dynamic responses plays an important role in structural health monitoring, damage detection and other fields of research. However, in aerospace engineering, the physical sensors are limited in the operational conditions of spacecraft, due to the severe environment in outer space. This paper proposes a virtual sensor model with partial vibration measurements using a convolutional neural network.

We have demonstrated that a supersonic beam of methyl radicals (CH_{3}) in the ground rotational state of both para and ortho species has been slowed down to standstill with a magnetic molecular decelerator, and successfully captured spatially in an anti-Helmholtz magnetic trap for >1  s. The trapped CH_{3} radicals have a mean translational temperature of about 200 mK with an estimated density of >5.0×10^{7}  cm^{-3}.

Control of the translational motion of methyl radicals is demonstrated by using pulsed magnetic fields created by a series of solenoid coils. By synchronously switching the magnetic fields corresponding to the motion of the radicals, we have observed the deceleration and focusing of a supersonic radical beam. The present result shows that Zeeman deceleration of polyatomic free radicals in the doublet state can be realized.
