Effects of Sub1 and qDTY on the agro-morpho-physiological traits of rice (Oryza sativa L.) under reproductive stage drought stress by Shakirah Mohammad Nahar, Nur Sakinah Mohd Yusri, Asmuni Mohd Ikmal, Noraziyah Abd Aziz Shamsudin, Siti Nurfaeiza Abd Razak, Pui, Maggie San Sudo, Song, Beng-Kah, Bey, Hing Goh, Long, Chiau Ming

“…Breeding and screening of drought tolerant varieties are crucial to ensure the continuity of food supply. Two breeding lines, UKM-112 and UKM-114 with QTL(s) for submergence tolerance (Submergence 1 [Sub1]) and yield under drought stress (qDTY) and together with their recurrent parental line, UKM-5, and a drought-sensitive cultivar, MR219 were screened for their agro-morpho-physiological responses under reproductive stage drought stress (RS) and non-stress (NS) to determine how the Sub1 interacts with qDTY in enhancing drought tolerance. …”

Modulating electronic and geometric structure of transition metal compounds for efficient water splitting by Tang, Shasha

“…It is found that forming such core-branch hierarchical nanostructures out of both catalytic active materials is an effective strategy to increase the catalytic active sites, reaction kinetics, and charge transport. Specifically, leaves-like ultrathin Co(OH)2 nanoflakes are grown on the branch-like Cu(OH)2 nanowires via an combined synthesis of an anodization process and a electrodeposition process. …”
