Plant endophytes spend at least part of their life cycle in plants without causing diseases in the hosts, being the microbial resources with rich species and diverse functions. With the advancement in sequencing technology, the microbiological study of endophytes has become increasingly intensive. Being praised for the targeted validation and low cost, Sanger sequencing has been preferred by researchers. However, Sanger sequencing is no longer suitable for deeper genomic study of endophytes due to the low throughput. In this paper, we briefly summarize the research history of endophytes, review the applications of next-generation sequencing characterized by high throughput and third-generation sequencing (single-molecule real-time sequencing) in the research on endophytes, and summarize the research results of different sequencing technologies. Furthermore, we summarize the advantages and limitations of different sequencing technologies and discuss how to choose the appropriate sequencing technology according to the research needs. This review provides a reference for researchers to further explore the potential value of plant endophytes.

We show that the Veneziano amplitude of string theory is the unique solution to an analytically solvable bootstrap problem. Uniqueness follows from two assumptions: faster than power-law falloff in high-energy scattering and the existence of some infinite sequence in momentum transfer at which higher-spin exchanges cancel. The string amplitude-including the mass spectrum-is an output of this bootstrap.

Proteo-SAFARI is a shiny application for fragment assignment by relative isotopes, an R-based software application designed for identification of protein fragment ions directly in the / domain. This program provides an open-source, user-friendly application for identification of fragment ions from a candidate protein sequence with support for custom covalent modifications and various visualizations of identified fragments. Additionally, Proteo-SAFARI includes a nonnegative least-squares fitting approach to determine the contributions of various hydrogen shifted fragment ions ( + 1, + 1, - 1, - 2) observed in UVPD mass spectra which exhibit overlapping isotopic distributions.

Catalysis and specifically autocatalysis are the quintessential building blocks of life. Yet, although autocatalytic networks are necessary, they are not sufficient for the emergence of life-like properties, such as replication and adaptation. The ultimate and potentially fatal threat faced by molecular replicators is parasitism; if the polymerase error rate exceeds a critical threshold, even the fittest molecular species will disappear.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are extremely stable chemicals that are essential for modern life and decarbonization technologies. Yet PFAS are persistent pollutants that are harmful to human health. Hexafluoropropylene oxide dimer acid (GenX), a replacement for the PFAS chemical perfluorooctanoic acid, continues to pollute waterways.

Textiles provide a valuable source of information regarding past cultures and their artistic practices. Understanding ancient textiles requires identifying the raw materials used, since the origin of dyes and fibers may be from plants or animals, with the specific species used varying based on geography, trade routes and cultural significance. A selection of nine Chancay textile fragments attributed to 800-1200 CE were studied with liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and direct analysis in real time mass spectrometry (DART-MS) to identify the chemical compounds in extracts of natural dyes used to create green, blue, red, yellow and black colors.
