Background: The COBRA-like (COBL) gene family is a crucial glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins that participate in various biological processes in plants by regulating the arrangement of cell wall microfibrils. While the functions of COBL genes have been analyzed in several plant species, their roles in cotton's response to abiotic stress remain unexplored.

Results: This study identified and characterized the COBL gene family in Gossypium hirsutum, revealing a total of 39 COBL family members classified into five subgroups.

Article Synopsis
  • * The study found that CAD genes are highly expressed in various plant tissues and are involved in the plant's response to abiotic stresses, particularly drought, as their expression increased under drought conditions.
  • * Silencing the CAD gene using VIGS technology decreased cotton's drought tolerance, leading to reduced water retention and enzyme activity, while increasing harmful compounds, indicating the gene's vital role in helping cotton resist drought stress.

In this paper, a morphologically stable composite phase change material (CPCM) suitable for use in the field of building energy conservation was developed using NaHPO∙12HO (DHPD) as the phase change material, NaSiO∙9HO (SSNH) as the nucleating agent, and silica aerogel (SA) as the carrier. The results showed that the incorporation of 25 wt% SA resulted in the as-prepared DHPD-SSNH/SA CPCM with a phase change temperature of 30.4 °C, an enthalpy of 163.

SET-domain group histone methyltransferases (SDGs) are known to play crucial roles in plant responses to abiotic stress. However, their specific function in cotton's response to drought stress has not been well understood. This study conducted a comprehensive analysis of the SDG gene family in , identifying a total of 82 SDG genes.

The influence of polymer emulsion, pigment filler, and dispersant on the corrosion resistance of polymer cement-based composite anti-corrosion coatings were investigated in this study. Adhesion loss rate tests and electrochemical tests were conducted on samples. The research results show that optimal corrosion resistance can be achieved with a 45 wt% dosage of emulsion, a 6 wt% dosage of pigment filler, and a 0.

Hot stamping (or press hardening) is a new technology that is widely used in the production of advanced high-strength steel parts for automotive applications. Electrochemical measurements, including potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and accelerated corrosion tests (the neutral salt spray test and periodic immersion test) were conducted on press-hardened samples produced from uncoated (cold-rolled and cold strip production (CSP) hot-rolled) and Al-Si-coated press-hardened steels to elucidate their distinct anti-corrosion mechanisms. The cross-sectional micromorphology and element distribution of three types of press-hardened steels after a neutral salt spray test were observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX).
