TL;DR: In this article, a simple analytic model is presented to describe the low-frequency effective mass densities of three-component phononic crystals with local resonances, and it is shown that the effective mass density can turn negative close to the local resonance.
Abstract: A simple analytic model is presented to describe the low-frequency effective mass densities of three-component phononic crystals with local resonances. We show that the effective mass densities can turn negative close to the local resonances. Expressions for the effective mass densities are derived for both three-dimensional systems with coated spheres embedded in a host matrix, and two-dimensional systems with coated cylinders embedded in a host matrix.

TL;DR: This work cloned Bph14, a gene conferring resistance to Brown planthopper at seedling and maturity stages of the rice plant, using a map-base cloning approach and shows that it encodes a coiled-coil, nucleotide-binding, and leucine-rich repeat (CC-NB-LRR) protein that might function in recognition of the BPH insect invasion and activating the defense response.
Abstract: Planthoppers are highly destructive pests in crop production worldwide. Brown planthopper (BPH) causes the most serious damage of the rice crop globally among all rice pests. Growing resistant varieties is the most effective and environment-friendly strategy for protecting the crop from BPH. More than 19 BPH-resistance genes have been reported and used to various extents in rice breeding and production. In this study, we cloned Bph14, a gene conferring resistance to BPH at seedling and maturity stages of the rice plant, using a map-base cloning approach. We show that Bph14 encodes a coiled-coil, nucleotide-binding, and leucine-rich repeat (CC-NB-LRR) protein. Sequence comparison indicates that Bph14 carries a unique LRR domain that might function in recognition of the BPH insect invasion and activating the defense response. Bph14 is predominantly expressed in vascular bundles, the site of BPH feeding. Expression of Bph14 activates the salicylic acid signaling pathway and induces callose deposition in phloem cells and trypsin inhibitor production after planthopper infestation, thus reducing the feeding, growth rate, and longevity of the BPH insects. Our work provides insights into the molecular mechanisms of rice defense against insects and facilitates the development of resistant varieties to control this devastating insect.

TL;DR: A summary of the state of the art in oxidative R1-H/R2-H cross-coupling with hydrogen evolution via photo/electrochemistry is given, and it is hoped this review will stimulate the development of a greener synthetic strategy in the near future.
Abstract: Photo-/electrochemical catalyzed oxidative R1-H/R2-H cross-coupling with hydrogen evolution has become an increasingly important issue for molecular synthesis. The dream of construction of C-C/C-X bonds from readily available C-H/X-H with release of H2 can be facilely achieved without external chemical oxidants, providing a greener model for chemical bond formation. Given the great influence of these reactions in organic chemistry, we give a summary of the state of the art in oxidative R1-H/R2-H cross-coupling with hydrogen evolution via photo/electrochemistry, and we hope this review will stimulate the development of a greener synthetic strategy in the near future.
