Does Practice Enhance Adaptability? The Role of Personality Trait, Supervisor Behavior, and Career Development Training
Drawing upon career construction theory, we examined the mediating effect of deliberate practice (DP) on career adaptability (CA) and the effects of learning goal orientation (LGO) and supervisor incompetence accusations (SIA) as well as career development training (CDT) on DP. Using data collected…

Exposure to Nanoplastic Particles Enhances Acinetobacter Survival, Biofilm Formation, and Serum Resistance
The interaction between nanoplastics and bacteria remains still largely unclear. In this study, we determined the effect of nanopolystyrene particle (NP) on a bacterial pathogen of Acinetobacter johnsonii AC15. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis indicated the aggregation of NPs from 10…

Seasonal pollution and surface characteristics of microplastics in surface water in the Wanzhou section of the Three Gorges Reservoir, China
The pollution of freshwater environments with microplastics (MPs) has attracted increasing attention owing to their threats to aquatic ecosystems and human health. Here, we sampled and analyzed MPs from mainstream, tributary, and backwater areas in the Wanzhou section of the Three Gorges Reservoir…

Preliminary study on the geographical origin of Chinese 'Cuiguan' pears using integrated stable isotope and multi-element analyses
Distinguish the geographical origin of the pear is important due to the increasingly valued brand protection and reducing the potential food safety risks. In this study, the profiles of stable isotopes (δ(13)C, δ(15)N, δ(2)H, δ(18)O) and the contents of 16 elements in pear peer from four production…

Biosafety assessment of Acinetobacter strains isolated from the Three Gorges Reservoir region in nematode Caenorhabditis elegans
Acinetobacter has been frequently detected in backwater areas of the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) region. We here employed Caenorhabditis elegans to perform biosafety assessment of Acinetobacter strains isolated from backwater area in the TGR region. Among 21 isolates and 5 reference strains of…

The Harbinger transposon‐derived gene PANDA epigenetically coordinates panicle number and grain size in rice
Transposons significantly contribute to genome fractions in many plants. Although numerous transposon‐related mutations have been identified, the evidence regarding transposon‐derived genes regulating crop yield and other agronomic traits is very limited. In this study, we characterized a rice…
