The success of siphonogamy requires several prerequisites, including the normal development of the female gametophyte and male gametophyte (pollen). Appropriate pollination methods ensure the successful encounter between pollen and the stigma. After pollen lands on the stigma, pollen/pollen tube interacts with different tissues and cells of the pistil, completing a series of male-female communications. The smooth progress of these interactions ensures that the pollen tube can enter the female gametophyte, burst, and release sperm cells to complete the double fertilization. In this chapter, we provide an overview of pollination and the interactions between male and female, comprehensively summarizing the factors involved in these processes.},

However, while impairing neuronal metabolism limits brain performance, whether expanding the metabolic capacity of neurons boosts brain function remains poorly understood. Here, we show that LTM formation of flies and mice can be enhanced by increasing mitochondrial metabolism in central memory circuits. By knocking down the mitochondrial Ca2+ exporter Letm1, we favour Ca2+ retention in the mitochondrial matrix of neurons due to reduction of mitochondrial H+/Ca2+ exchange. The resulting increase in mitochondrial Ca2+ over-activates mitochondrial metabolism in neurons of central memory circuits, leading to improved LTM storage in training paradigms in which wild-type counterparts of both species fail to remember. Our findings unveil an evolutionarily conserved mechanism that controls mitochondrial metabolism in neurons and indicate its involvement in shaping higher brain functions, such as LTM.},

The data reveal over 40 emission and absorption features, including a rich forest of low-ionization Fe ii lines and numerous broad hydrogen recombination transitions. We use this depth to test the dense-gas interpretation through five independent diagnostics. Nearly all permitted lines show exponential wings with consistent FWHM, a signature of Thomson scattering requiring ne ≳ 108 cm−3. Adopting this width yields MBH ∼ 106.7M⊙, a factor of 10 lower than Gaussian fits, and λEdd ∼ 1.8. Additional diagnostics support the same picture: a pronounced Balmer break (fν,4050/fν,3670 = 2.0 ± 0.1), enhanced He i λ7065 and λ10830 with P-Cygni absorption, Bowen-fluorescent O i λ8446–λ11290 emission requiring Lyβ pumping, and 16 Fe ii lines matching fluorescence models. These features indicate a dense (n ∼ 108 cm−3), partially ionized cocoon where scattering and fluorescence dominate line formation, providing strong evidence that at least some LRDs are powered by super-Eddington black hole growth in the early Universe.},

While Rheo-FLUCS is facilitated by thermoviscous expansion phenomena rather than external forces, here we show equivalence in its ability to measure relative viscoelastic properties. Specifically, we demonstrate a phase-lag equivalence with probe-dependent active microrheology in a wide range of physically different, yet chemically identical materials.

Rapid identification of the source in the Zwicky Transient Facility data stream permitted ultraviolet-through- optical observations to be obtained prior to peak, allowing the first determination of the peak bolometric luminosity ( 2 ×1045 erg s−1 ), maximum photospheric radius ( 1015 cm), and total radiated energy ( 1051 erg) of an 18cow-like object. We present results from a comprehensive multiwavelength observing campaign, including a far-ultraviolet spectrum from the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph on the Hubble Space Telescope and deep imaging extending > 100 d post-explosion from the Very Large Telescope, Hubble Space Telescope , Very Large Array, and Atacama Large Millimetre Array. We interpret the observations under a model in which a rapidly accreting central engine blows a fast ( ∼0.2 c ) wind into the surrounding medium and irradiates it with X-rays. The high Doppler velocities and intense ionization within this wind prevent identifiable spectroscopic features from appearing in the ejecta or in the surrounding circumstellar material. Weak H and He signatures do emerge in the spectra after 35 d in the form of double-peaked narrow lines. Each peak is individually narrow (full width δv ∼3000 km s−1 ) but the two components are separated by v ∼6600 km s−1 , indicating stable structures of denser material, possibly representing streams of tidal ejecta or an ablated companion star.},

  abstract     = {Auxin, primarily indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), is a central regulator of growth and development in land plants, but its physiological role in chlorophyte algae remains unclear. Here, we show that exogenous IAA modulates growth in Chlorella sorokiniana, Chlorella variabilis, and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii in a concentration-dependent manner. Low IAA concentrations promoted growth by accelerating the onset of cell division without affecting cell size, whereas higher concentrations inhibited proliferation. Radiotracer assays showed that all three species take up and release IAA across the plasma membrane through a combination of passive diffusion and energy-dependent, saturable processes. Competition by excess unlabeled natural and synthetic auxins further supported the presence of carrier-mediated transport with broad substrate recognition. Phylogenetic analyses identified potential PIN-like auxin exporters in chlorophytes and other non-plant eukaryotes, and structural modeling supported conservation of the overall PIN fold and predicted auxin-binding residues. However, functional assays in Xenopus laevis oocytes, tobacco BY-2 cultured cells, and Arabidopsis thaliana did not support a role for these proteins in directional auxin export. Instead, non-plant PIN homologs localized predominantly to the endoplasmic reticulum and showed limited or no transport activity in heterologous systems. Together, these findings indicate that auxin responsiveness and basic cellular auxin transport predate canonical PIN-mediated directional auxin export, which appears to be a later innovation of the streptophyte lineage.},

However, the fundamental limits on the achievable speedup remain poorly understood. In this work, we establish the first “tight” lower bounds on the runtime of any deterministic speculative generation algorithm. This is achieved by drawing a parallel between the token generation process and branching random walks, which allows us to analyze the optimal draft tree selection problem. We prove, under basic assumptions, that the expected number of tokens successfully predicted per speculative iteration is bounded as \mathbb{E}[X] ≤ (𝜇 + 𝜇(2))log(B )/𝜇2 + O(1), where B is the verifier’s batch size, 𝜇 is the expected entropy of the verifier’s output distribution, and 𝜇(2) is this entropy’s second moment. This result provides new insights into the limits of parallel token generation, and could guide the design of future speculative decoding systems. Empirical evaluations on Llama models validate our theoretical predictions, confirming the tightness of our bounds in practical settings.},

  abstract     = {Tissue tension is a key determinant of tissue shape, and its regulation is essential for both morphogenesis and the maintenance of tissue integrity. During zebrafish embryogenesis, the enveloping layer (EVL) – an epithelial monolayer covering the blastoderm – undergoes extensive spreading that is driven by pulling forces exerted at its margin and more than doubles its surface area. Yet whether and how the EVL actively regulates its tissue tension during this process remains unclear. Here, we show that the EVL maintains constant tissue tension while spreading, and that it achieves this by reducing apical cell contractility in response to the same pulling forces that drive its spreading. We identify a mechanosensitive pathway underlying this response, mediated by the scaffold/adaptor protein Kibra regulating the activity of atypical protein kinase C (aPKC) at the apical domain of EVL cells. Under low mechanical stretch, Kibra forms condensates at the base of actin-based apical projections, where it activates Myosin II to increase apical contractility through aPKC downregulation. As mechanical stretch increases, apical projections disassemble, Kibra condensates dissolve, and aPKC activity rises. Elevated aPKC activity in turn reduces apical contractility by reducing Myosin II activity, thereby maintaining constant tissue tension despite increased mechanical stretch. Together, these findings reveal a mechanosensitive mechanism that enables robust adaptation of tissue tension to changing mechanical stretch, ensuring efficient tissue spreading and morphogenesis.},
