A new Chinese fossil discovery sheds light on the evolution of protorosaurs and their long-necked marine reptiles. The Dinocephalosaurus species' 25 cervical vertebrae neck may have enabled a unique suction-based feeding method, allowing it to capture prey more effectively in water.
Researchers have identified key genes controlling skeleton development, including Hox10 and Hox11. These paralogous genes orchestrate construction of ribs, spine, and limb bones, with knocking out all forms revealing dramatic effects on development.
Researchers at Idaho National Laboratory have discovered a new polymer membrane that allows for more efficient movement of lithium ions, leading to better battery performance and longer lifespan. The membrane, made from MEEP material, can be molded into any shape and is temperature-tolerant, making it suitable for various applications.
A new study published in the Journal of Animal Science reveals that early weaning and high-energy diets can produce higher-quality beef with increased marbling and reduced waste fat. This approach may help cattle producers achieve consumer demand for leaner beef while reducing feed costs.
