Nucleo-cytoplasmic interaction in seedless cybrid citrus
Male sterility is important for seedless citrus breeding. A long juvenile phase and nucellar polyembryony leads to low efficiency of hybrid breeding in citrus. The Citrus research group in National Key Laboratory for Germplasm Innovation & Utilizatio.....»»

Mapping the effects of mutations in antibiotic-resistant bacteria
When a bacterium becomes more resistant to one antibiotic, it sometimes becomes more sensitive to another. To better understand this interaction, researchers from the Leiden Institute of Biology (IBL) and the Leiden Academic Center for Drug Research.....»»
It takes three to tangle: Long-range quantum entanglement needs three-way interaction
A theoretical study shows that long-range entanglement can indeed survive at temperatures above absolute zero, if the correct conditions are met......»»
Uncovering warped protein interactions in cancer
Scientists at Emory have revealed widespread distortions of a cell's protein interaction machinery resulting from cancer-causing mutations. They developed a process resembling ground-penetrating radar, for its ability to map the hidden landscape of a.....»»
Researchers are developing a way for us to interact with our phones using our eyes
Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University are working on a new method of smartphone interaction where we use our eyes to do the talking. The post Researchers are developing a way for us to interact with our phones using our eyes first appeared on P.....»»
Breakthrough MicroBooNE measurement elucidates neutrino interactions
Physicists studying ghost-like particles called neutrinos from the international MicroBooNE collaboration have reported a first-of-its-kind measurement: a comprehensive set of the energy-dependent neutrino-argon interaction cross sections. This mea.....»»
Intense laser light modifies the pairing of electrons
The quantum-mechanical exchange interaction between electrons, a consequence of the Pauli exclusion principle, can be specifically modified with intense infrared light fields on time scales of a few femtoseconds, as time-resolved experiments on sulfu.....»»
How to track a shark: New research reveals where, why and how sharks and game fish overlap
An international team of researchers, led by the University of Massachusetts Amherst, has compiled a massive dataset that overlays years' worth of information on the position, migration and interaction of sharks and game fish. This research has immed.....»»
Two-faced protein both inhibits and activates B cell receptor signaling
Researchers have found that restoration of B cell function in BCR signaling deficiencies involves the interaction of CD22, normally an inhibitory factor, with binding partners on the same cell, which results in upregulation of BCR expression and para.....»»
"We Study Virus Evolution. Here"s Where We Think the Coronavirus Is Going."
Sarah Cobey, who studies the interaction of immunity, virus evolution and transmission at the University of Chicago, Jesse Bloom and Tyler Starr, both of whom study virus evolution at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, writing for The.....»»
Machine learning techniques can speed up glacier modeling by 1,000 times
A novel glacier model has been developed which can simulate ice dynamics and ice interaction with the climate up to a thousand times faster than previous models. This model can be used to predict the evolution of glaciers and ice sheets under differe.....»»
Traffic stops and race: Police conduct may bend to local biases
Traffic stops, which happen approximately 50,000 times each day in the United States, are the most common interaction between law enforcement and the public, according to data from the Stanford Open Policing Project. These stops can result in nothing.....»»
A versatile hydrogel network-repairing strategy
Hydrogen bond engineering can convey stretchability, toughness and self-healing properties to materials, although enhancement effects of conventional hydrogen bonds is limiting due to their weak interaction strength. For instance, organisms can withs.....»»
Homing in on the Higgs boson interaction with the charm quark
Since the discovery of the Higgs boson a decade ago, the ATLAS and CMS collaborations at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have been hard at work trying to unlock the secrets of this special particle. In particular, the collaborations have been investi.....»»
Face-to-face interaction may enhance learning, innovation
Whether virtual or in-person learning is better may be the wrong question......»»
Interaction with lung cells transforms asbestos particles
A common building material, asbestos is the term used to describe a range of naturally growing minerals. Serious diseases, including mesothelioma and lung cancer, can arise decades after coming into contact with asbestos......»»
NASA develops technology to dissect the lower atmosphere
The part of the atmosphere closest to the planet is the hardest to measure from space due to the volume of gases above it. Studying Earth's planetary boundary layer, or PBL, will enable scientists to better understand the interaction between Earth's.....»»
Nick of time: Temporal variation of light-matter interaction boosts photonic metamaterials
At the interface between two media, light is partly reflected backwards into the medium from where it came and partly transmitted into the neighboring medium, like a light ray entering a sparkling pool of water. The light wave patterns that arise fro.....»»
Switching plasmonic nanogaps between classical and quantum regimes
Quantum plasmonics is the study of quantum properties of light and its interaction with matter at the nanoscale. While intriguing, they are difficult to regulate on account of the lack of proper surface spaces to reversibly actuate sub-1 nanometer ga.....»»
Apple Has Bought a Startup That Uses AI to Make Music to Fit Your Mood
