Article Synopsis
- Carbon nanomaterials doped with nitrogen (N) and boron (B) enhance charge polarization, making it easier for oxygen reduction reactions by improving adsorption and weakening O-O bonds.
- A new self-assembly method was used to create porous carbon-based catalysts (BCN-P) that incorporates cucurbit[7]uril for nitrogen and closo-[BH] for boron, along with polystyrene microspheres to add porosity for more active sites.
- The BCN-P catalysts exhibit impressive performance in zinc-air batteries, achieving high onset and half-wave potentials, as well as operational voltage and power density metrics that rival traditional platinum-based catalysts.
Plant pathogens secrete effector proteins to overcome host immunity and promote colonization. In oomycete plant pathogens, the expression of many effector genes is altered upon infection; however, the regulatory mechanisms are unclear. In this study, we identified a su(var)3-9, enhancer of zeste, and trithorax (SET) domain protein-encoding gene, PsKMT3, that was highly induced at early infection stages in Phytophthora sojae.
