Epigenetic–epitranscriptomic crosstalk through TaHAG1–TaNSUN2 coordinates thermotolerance in wheat
Abstract High temperature is a primary abiotic stress that severely constrains crop productivity. Deciphering the regulatory pathways underlying heat responses is essential for breeding heat-tolerant crops with stable yields. Although both epigenetic and epitranscriptomic regulations are involved in plant heat adaptation, their mechanistic interplay remains unclear.
A natural allele of TaSCE1-A1 confers drought resistance in wheat
Abstract Drought stress threatens global wheat productivity, yet the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying drought resilience remain incompletely understood. Here we identify TaSCE1-A1, which encodes a SUMO-conjugating enzyme, as a positive regulator of drought resistance through genome-wide association studies. In arid regions, an evolutionary G-to-A transition in the promoter confers elevated TaSCE1-A1 expression through disruption of TaBPC1-mediated transcriptional repression.

Reaction-induced modification of Co nanoclusters driven by Co-Mn interfacial sites to control selectivity in CO2 hydrogenation - Nature Communications
Abstract Controlling the selectivity of chemical products on small Co nanoparticles is crucial in many catalytic applications. Reaction-driven structural changes offer an alternative methodology to regulate their properties. Herein, carbon-induced surface restructuring occurs on a 2Co/MnOₓ catalyst (cobalt nanoclusters with 2% mass loading on manganese oxide) during thermal CO2 hydrogenation, driven by the formation of bridging Co-C-O-Mn interfacial sites.

Boosting the activity in the liquid-phase hydrogenation of S-containing nitroarenes by dual-site Pt/CeO2 catalysts design - Nature Communications
Abstract The liquid phase hydrogenation of nitroarenes is an important industrial reaction. The active sites are typically supported metal nanoparticles, which can be easily deactivated when sulfur groups are present in the substrate. Here, we report a new strategy for converting these S-containing nitroarenes by developing a dual-sites Pt/CeO2 catalyst consisting of highly defective CeO2 with abundant active oxygen vacancy and Pt sub-nano clusters.

Generation of oxide surface patches promoting H-spillover in Ru/(TiOx)MnO catalysts enables CO2 reduction to CO - Nature Catalysis
Abstract The migration of reducible metal oxides (for example, TiO2) to the surface of metal nanoparticles can inhibit sintering but has a strong negative impact on the catalytic activity. Here we reveal the in situ creation of TiOx patches over an MnO support to generate effective transport channels for hydrogen spillover to form more active hydrogen species on the MnO surface which are responsible for reducing CO2 to CO, a key reaction for CO2 conversion to high-value chemicals.

Atomically dispersed metal sites stabilized on nitrogen doped carbon carrier via N2 glow-discharge plasma A novel, facile and universal N2 plasma approach to form single atom metal sites (Pt, Pd, Ag, Cu, Co) is proposed. Fast nucleation and slow growth of metal ions under low temperature plasma are the premise to form single atoms. These isolated metal atoms are subsequently trapped by in situ doped nitrogen. We provide a new route to expand the toolbox of SAs preparation.
