Biodiversity offsets perform poorly for both people and nature, but better approaches are available by Mancini, MC, Collins, RM, Addicott, ET, Balmford, BJ, Binner, A, Bull, JW, Day, BH, Eigenbrod, F, Zu Ermgassen, SOS, Faccioli, M, Fezzi, C, Groom, B, Milner-Gulland, E, Owen, N, Tingley, D, Wright, E, Bateman, IJ

“…Accordingly, developers are increasingly required to resource offset projects, delivering biodiversity or wider environmental net gains. However, analyses of offsets in England show that the large majority are conducted within development sites rather than targeted toward better opportunities for net gains elsewhere. …”

New 3D supramolecular Zn(ii)-coordinated self-assembled organic networks by Lim, Zheng Bang, Li, Hairong, Sun, Shuangyong, Lek, Jun Yan, Trewin, Abbie, Lam, Yeng Ming, Grimsdale, Andrew C.

“…The optical properties of these materials were compared to the linear polymers P1–3 made by Zn(II)-mediated assembly of the same linear linking units. The emission spectra of both the 3-D and 1-D cases with the same linking unit matched each other, confirming the incorporation of the linker units into the expanded assemblies. …”

YY1 binding is a gene-intrinsic barrier to Xist-mediated gene silencing by Bowness, JS, Almeida, M, Nesterova, T, Brockdorff, N

“…X chromosome inactivation (XCI) in mammals is mediated by Xist RNA which functions in cis to silence genes on a single X chromosome in XX female cells, thereby equalising levels of X-linked gene expression relative to XY males. XCI progresses over a period of several days, with some X-linked genes silencing faster than others. …”
