    Association analyses of host genetics, root-colonizing microbes, and plant phenotypes under different nitrogen conditions in maize

    Michael A Meier, Gen Xu ... Jinliang Yang
    Comprehensive analyses of host genetics, root-associated microbiomes, and plant phenotypes under two nitrogen treatments reveals host genetic control of microbe abundance which, in turn, affects plant performance.
    1. Evolutionary Biology

    Tradeoff breaking as a model of evolutionary transitions in individuality and limits of the fitness-decoupling metaphor

    Pierrick Bourrat, Guilhem Doulcier ... Katrin Hammerschmidt
    A new model describes evolutionary transitions in individuality in terms of tradeoff and tradeoff-breaking events as opposed to changes in the nature of fitness.

    Innate immune signaling in trophoblast and decidua organoids defines differential antiviral defenses at the maternal-fetal interface

    Liheng Yang, Eleanor C Semmes ... Carolyn B Coyne
    Organoids developed from matched human placental tissue define differences in antiviral signaling between cell types comprising the maternal-fetal interface.
    1. Neuroscience

    Local field potentials reflect cortical population dynamics in a region-specific and frequency-dependent manner

    Cecilia Gallego-Carracedo, Matthew G Perich ... Juan Álvaro Gallego
    There is a frequency-dependent association between the local field potential and the coordinated activity of populations of single neurons, which remains constant during different aspects of behaviour but changes across regions of primate sensorimotor cortex.

    Neural effects of continuous theta-burst stimulation in macaque parietal neurons

    Maria C Romero, Lara Merken ... Marco Davare
    Electrophysiological recordings in awake behaving monkeys show the first evidence of the effect of continuous theta-burst stimulation, a widely used repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation protocol, at the level of single neurons.
    1. Structural Biology and Molecular Biophysics

    Mars, a molecule archive suite for reproducible analysis and reporting of single-molecule properties from bioimages

    Nadia M Huisjes, Thomas M Retzer ... Karl E Duderstadt
    Mars provides a software platform for the development of complex single-molecule analysis workflows enabling the discovery and reporting of new biological phenomena with an open data format accessible to everyone.
    1. Developmental Biology

    Innexin function dictates the spatial relationship between distal somatic cells in the Caenorhabditis elegans gonad without impacting the germline stem cell pool

    Theadora Tolkin, Ariz Mohammad ... David Greenstein
    Somatic gonad architecture is regulated by innexin function, but sheath cell position does not determine germ cell exit from the stem cell pool.
    1. Microbiology and Infectious Disease

    Genetic and chemical validation of Plasmodium falciparum aminopeptidase PfA-M17 as a drug target in the hemoglobin digestion pathway

    Rebecca CS Edgar, Ghizal Siddiqui ... Tania F de Koning-Ward
    Plasmodium falciparum aminopeptidase PfA-M17 is essential to parasite survival and plays a role in hemoglobin digestion, providing a rationale for further development of inhibitors against this enzyme.
    1. Neuroscience

    The role of anterior insular cortex inputs to dorsolateral striatum in binge alcohol drinking

    David L Haggerty, Braulio Munoz ... Brady K Atwood
    A novel brain circuit that determines how much alcohol a mouse binge drinks by complex control of drinking behavior mechanics is surveyed.

    Regional importation and asymmetric within-country spread of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern in the Netherlands

    Alvin X Han, Eva Kozanli ... Chantal Reusken
    Flight restrictions targeted at countries where SARS-CoV-2 variant-of-concern first emerged have limited effectiveness in deterring their introduction into the Netherlands due to the strength of regional travel importation risks in Europe.
