OsCDPK24 and OsCDPK28 phosphorylate heat shock factor OsHSFA4d to orchestrate abiotic and biotic stress responses in rice

Fang et al. demonstrate that OsHSFA4d enhances thermotolerance by activating HSP101 and promoting CslF6 expression, which suppresses disease resistance. It is phosphorylated by OsCDPK24/28, increasing its DNA binding ability under heat stress. This trade-off mechanism of abiotic/biotic stress may broadly exist in plant kingdom.

Disorder-induced multifractal superconductivity in monolayer niobium dichalcogenides

Disorder present in monolayer NbSe₂ is found to be able to enhance its superconductivity. A systematic study reveals the origin—disorder-induced multifractality of the electron wavefunctions strengthens the local interactions.

Frictionless multiphasic interface for near-ideal aero-elastic pressure sensing

Solid-state pressure sensors have performance limitations in liquid environments. Here, the authors design a pressure sensor using solid–liquid–liquid–gas multiphasic interfaces where a trapped air layer modulates capacitance changes with pressure to achieve near-friction-free contact line motions for near-ideal pressure sensing.

Wireless battery-free body sensor networks using near-field-enabled clothing

Though wireless near-field communication (NFC) technologies that connect wearable sensors for health monitoring have been reported, the short range of NFC readers limits sensor functionality. Here, the authors report a wireless and battery-free body sensor network with near-field-enabled clothing.

Moisture variability in northeast Tibet following the middle Miocene Climate transition

A rise in lake levels occurred after the mid-Miocene climate transition, challenging the notion of persistent long-term aridity and indicating a significant influence of westerly winds and East Asian summer monsoons, according to paleorecords and climate models from the northeastern Tibetan Plateau.
