As the application of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) continues to expand, its stability and safety issues are receiving more and more attention, especially the interference problem. Interference reduces the signal reception quality of ground terminals and may even lead to the paralysis of GNSS function in severe cases. In recent years, Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites have been highly emphasized for their unique advantages in GNSS interference detection, and related commercial and academic activities have increased rapidly.

Methods: The study downloaded dataset GSE79962 from the Gene Expression Omnibus database and acquired the ERS-related gene set from GeneCards. It utilized weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and conducted differential expression analysis to identify key modules and genes associated with SIC.
Mutations in the CsEMS1 gene result in male sterility and reduced wart number and density. Male sterility and fruit wart formation are two significant agronomic characteristics in cucumber (Cucumis sativus), yet knowledge of our underlying genetics is limited. In this study, we identified an EMS-induced male sterility and few small warts mutant (msfsw).

- Graphitic phase carbon nitride (g-CN) shows potential as a photocatalyst for reducing atmospheric CO2, although its intrinsic properties still need improvement.
- K-B co-doped carbon nitride (KBCN) has been studied using Density Functional Theory (DFT), revealing that doping enhances charge migration and separates charges effectively, resulting in improved catalytic performance.
- The reaction pathway and Gibbs free energy analysis show that KBCN increases CO reduction efficiency by shifting the rate-determining step and significantly lowering the energy barrier, indicating that KBCN outperforms traditional CN in catalytic activity.
