Plastic waste causes harm to marine life and has become a major global environmental concern. The recent COVID-19 pandemic has led to an increased demand for single-use plastic, intensifying pressure ...

Open in Viewer RoBMA PSMA model-averaged posterior mean effect size estimates with 95% credible intervals and Bayes factors for the absence of the effect for the combined sample or split by either the ...

Intercalary meristems (IcMs) coordinate rapid stem elongation in monocots, yet their cellular organization and regulatory pathways remain largely uncharacterized due to their transient activity and ...

Bacteria are traditionally believed to contribute only to struvite kidney stone formation. In contrast, most types of kidney stones are believed to be abiotic and considered to be “noninfectious.” ...

Because ecosystem responses to such variables may depend on the type of ecosystem, its species composition and soils, abiotic variables including climate, and the magnitude of the change in drivers, ...

The United States produces 41% of the world's corn and 38% of the world's soybeans. These crops comprise two of the four largest sources of caloric energy produced and are thus critical for world food ...

Hominins with morphology similar to present-day humans appear in the fossil record across Eurasia between 40,000 and 50,000 y ago. The genetic relationships between these early modern humans and ...
