| Scientists identify live immune cells in a coral and sea anemone Posted: 17 Aug 2021 04:30 PM PDT A new study has identified specialized immune cells in the cauliflower coral and starlet sea anemone that can help fight infection. The findings are important to better understand how reef-building corals and other reef animals protect themselves from foreign invaders like bacteria and viruses found in and around coral reefs. |
| New method developed to solve plastics sustainability problem Posted: 17 Aug 2021 04:30 PM PDT A research group is developing polymers that can be broken down into their constituent parts; thus, when the catalyst for depolymerization is absent or removed, the polymers will be highly stable and their thermal and mechanical properties can be tuned to meet the needs of various applications. |
| As cities grow in size, the poor 'get nothing at all' Posted: 17 Aug 2021 04:30 PM PDT On average, people in larger cities are better off economically. But a new study builds on previous research that says, that's not necessarily true for the individual city-dweller. It turns out, bigger cities also produce more income inequality. |
| Herbicide resistance no longer a black box for scientists Posted: 16 Aug 2021 09:57 AM PDT New research pinpoints genomic regions associated with metabolic or non-target-site herbicide resistance in waterhemp, a problematic agricultural weed. Non-target-site resistance has long been considered a black box, but the complete waterhemp genome allows for a more precise understanding of the detoxifying mechanism's genetic architecture. |
