Adaptive differences in the thermal stabilities of enzyme structure and function play critical roles in establishing the thermal optima and limits of all organisms. Thus, understanding the mechanisms underlying these adaptations can yield insights in...
Steady-state visually evoked potential-based Brain-computer interface (BCI) spellers assist individuals experiencing speech difficulties by enabling them to communicate at a fast rate. However, achieving a high information transfer rate (ITR) in most...
China harbors extensive saline-alkaline water resources with considerable potential for aquaculture development. However, their utilization is constrained by high pH, elevated carbonate alkalinity, and complex ionic composition. Exopalaemon carinicau...
BACKGROUND: Deep learning has emerged as a powerful tool in the analysis of biological data, including the analysis of large metagenome data. However, its application remains limited due to high computational costs, model complexity, and difficulty e...
Climate change is causing more frequent and extraordinary extreme weather events that are already negatively affecting crop production. There is a need for improved climate risk assessment by developing smart adaptation strategies for sustainable fut...
Many invertebrates voluntarily lose (autotomize) limbs during antagonistic encounters, and some regenerate functional replacements. Because limb loss can have severe consequences on individual fitness, it is likely subject to significant selective pr...
Podocarpus pollen morphology is shaped by both phylogenetic history and the environment. We analyzed the relationship between pollen traits quantified using deep learning and environmental factors within a comparative phylogenetic framework. We inves...
