The study aimed at understanding the biochemical and molecular level modifications in Desmodesmus sp. under lipid inducing stress conditions. The low-temperature (5 °C) incubation and nitrogen starvation reduced the PS II electron transport in microalga with a maximum reduction of 50-57% in ET/ABS values. The PS II electron transport recovered in UV treated cultures after an initial reduction of 87-93% in ET/ABS values. A 2.7-4.4 fold increase in ROS and MDA levels was observed under low-temperature incubation, and nitrogen starvation. The UV treatment caused 1.3-2.4 fold higher ROS and MDA levels than control. The low-temperature incubated, nitrogen starved, and UV treated cultures showed 2.4-4 fold higher acc D gene expression. A higher rbc L gene expression was observed under low-temperature stress. The study showed modifications in PS II electron transport, oxidative status, and expression of acc D and rbc L genes under stress conditions.

Leaf photosynthesis and respiration are two of the largest carbon fluxes between the atmosphere and biosphere. Although experiments examining the warming effects on photosynthetic and respiratory thermal acclimation have been widely conducted, the sensitivity of various ecosystem and vegetation types to warming remains uncertain. Here we conducted a meta-analysis on experimental observations of thermal acclimation worldwide.

Background: Phaseolus vulgaris is a warm-season crop sensitive to low temperatures, which can adversely affect its growth, yield, and market value. Exogenous growth regulators, such as diethyl aminoethyl hexanoate (DA-6), have shown potential in alleviating stress caused by adverse environmental conditions. However, the effects that DA-6 has on P.

The ability to tolerate otherwise toxic compounds can open up unique niches in nature. Among drosophilid flies, few examples of such adaptations are known and those which are known are typically from highly host-specific species. Here we show that the human commensal species Drosophila busckii uses dimethyldisulfide (DMDS) as a key mediator in its host selection.

Iron and manganese are essential nutrients whose transport across membranes is catalyzed by members of the SLC11 family. In humans, this protein family contains two paralogs, the ubiquitously expressed DMT1, which is involved in the uptake and distribution of Fe and Mn, and NRAMP1, which participates in the resistance against infections and nutrient recycling. Despite previous studies contributing to our mechanistic understanding of the family, the structures of human SLC11 proteins and their relationship to functional properties have remained elusive.

Organic photovoltaics (OPVs) have improved greatly in recent years in pursuit for efficient and sustainable energy conversion methods. Specifically, utilizing quantum chemistry approaches such as density functional theory (DFT), the electronic structures, energy levels, and charge transport characteristics of donor-π-acceptor (D-π-A) systems based on non-fullerene donor and acceptor molecules have been examined and synthesized. Non-fullerene acceptors offer several advantages over traditional fullerene-based materials, such as enhanced light absorption, modifiable energy levels, and reduced recombination losses.
