BgtH12 is established as a critical virulence factor that suppresses basal immunity to promote Bgt colonization and stable overexpression of BgtH12 in wheat enhanced susceptibility.
This case highlights the importance of continued endoscopic surveillance for gastric carcinogenesis even after long‐term clinical remission of MD and reveals no evidence of active MD.

Prot-LAMBDA is introduced, a PLM that explicitly incorporates spatial relationships by coupling residue embeddings with inter-residue contacts and LambdaFold, a lightweight distance-guided structure prediction framework that achieves performance comparable to ESMFold on proteins strictly non-redundant to the training d...
The highly modular network restricted horizontal gene transfer of ARGs, mitigated the enrichment of pathogenic antibiotic-resistant bacteria (PARBs) and occurrence of high-risk ARGs in MMB-CW, providing an optimization strategy for MMB-CW in view of treatment performance and ecological risk.

The application of quercetin in functional foods is severely limited by its poor aqueous solubility, chemical instability, and low oral bioaccessibility. This study investigated the synergistic effects of ultrasound pretreatment and λ-carrageenan (λ-CA) complexation on the stability and quercetin delivery efficiency of...
Regulation of walnut fruit maturation is crucial for delaying harvest and maintaining kernel quality. In this study, 'Qingxiang' walnut (Juglans regia L.) fruit were treated with 300 mg L-1 gibberellic acid (GA3) during 20-100 days after flowering (DAF) to assess its effects on fruit development, kernel nutrient compos...

Abstract Commercial Bacillus-based probiotics are widely used in poultry production, but their biological mechanisms of action in broiler chickens are still not fully understood. This study evaluated the effects of dietary supplementation with Bacillus-based commercial probiotics on the performance, meat and tibia trai...
