Online selfie behavior and consideration of cosmetic surgery in teenage girls: The mediating roles of appearance comparisons and body dissatisfaction.

Although cosmetic surgery can repair functional impairments caused by deformities, improve appearance, and enhance self-esteem, it also carries certain risks, complications, and even death. To reduce the risks to life and property caused by repetitive or inappropriate procedures, it is important to identify the prerequisites that lead individuals to pursue cosmetic surgery. Some studies have shown a significant association between selfies and cosmetic surgery consideration, with prior research focusing on offline selfie behaviors rather than the relationship between online selfies (including posting and viewing selfies) and consideration of cosmetic surgery.

Development and Validation of the Defending Behavior Scale of Cyberbullying for Adolescents.

In the context of cyberbullying, bystanders engage in a diverse array of defending behaviors, employing a range of strategies tailored to the specific forms of bullying they encounter. These defending behaviors have been demonstrated to effectively mitigate the adverse effects of cyberbullying on victims. This study involved the development of the defending behavior scale of cyberbullying for adolescents and a subsequent assessment of the scale's reliability and validity.

DNA methylation controlling abscisic acid catabolism responds to light to mediate strawberry fruit ripening.

Phytohormones, epigenetic regulation and environmental factors regulate fruit ripening but their interplay during strawberry fruit ripening remains to be determined. In this study, bagged strawberry fruit exhibited delayed ripening compared with fruit grown in normal light, correlating with reduced abscisic acid (ABA) accumulation. Transcription of the key ABA catabolism gene, ABA 8'-hydroxylase FaCYP707A4, was induced in bagged fruit.

DNA methylation mediated by RdDM pathway and demethylation affects furanone accumulation through regulation of in strawberry.

Recently, increasing evidence suggests that DNA methylation plays a crucial role in fruit ripening. However, the role of DNA methylation in regulating specific traits, such as flavor, remains unclear. Here, we report a role of DNA methylation in affecting furanone biosynthesis in strawberry.

The strawberry transcription factor FaRAV1 positively regulates anthocyanin accumulation by activation of FaMYB10 and anthocyanin pathway genes.

The RAV (related to ABI3/viviparous 1) group of transcription factors (TFs) play multifaceted roles in plant development and stress responses. Here, we show that strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) FaRAV1 positively regulates anthocyanin accumulation during fruit ripening via a hierarchy of activation processes. Dual-luciferase assay screening of all fruit-expressed AP2/ERFs showed FaRAV1 had the highest transcriptional activation of the promoter of FaMYB10, a key activator of anthocyanin biosynthesis.

The grapevine homeobox gene VvHB58 influences seed and fruit development through multiple hormonal signaling pathways.

Background: The homeobox transcription factor has a diversity of functions during plant growth and development process. Previous transcriptome analyses of seed development in grape hybrids suggested that specific homeodomain transcription factors are involved in seed development in seedless cultivars. However, the molecular mechanism of homeobox gene regulating seed development in grape is rarely reported.

Genome-Wide Analysis of the YABBY Gene Family in Grapevine and Functional Characterization of .

Genes of the plant-specific YABBY transcription factor family have various roles, including lateral organ development, establishment of dorsoventral polarity, and response to abiotic stress. In this study, we carried out a genomic census of YABBY genes in grapevine () and characterized their expression pattern during ovule development. We identified seven YABBY genes and classified them into five subfamilies, based on peptide sequence, similarity of exon-intron structure and composition of peptide sequence motifs.

Genome-wide identification and expression analyses of the homeobox transcription factor family during ovule development in seedless and seeded grapes.

Seedless grapes are of considerable importance for the raisin and table grape industries. Previous transcriptome analyses of seed development in grape revealed that genes encoding homeobox transcription factors were differentially regulated in seedless compared with seeded grape during seed development. In the present study, we identified a total of 73 homeobox-like genes in the grapevine genome and analyzed the genomic content and expression profiles of these genes.
