Australia's dengue risk driven by human adaptation to climate change. by Nigel W Beebe, Robert D Cooper, Pipi Mottram, Anthony W Sweeney

“…<h4>Conclusions/significance</h4>In the debate of the role climate change will play in the future range of dengue in Australia, we conclude that the increased risk of an Ae. aegypti range expansion in Australia would be due not directly to climate change but rather to human adaptation to the current and forecasted regional drying through the installation of large domestic water storing containers. …”

US Deterrence against Russia and China (based on strategic documents of J. Biden administration) by V. I. Batyuk

“…A closer examination of key strategic documents published in recent years shows that if from a political and military point of view, the US strategists come up with a generally rational list of measures aimed at countering the challenge, posed by Russia and China, from an ideological point of view they doggedly follow liberal-hegemonic premises that are increasingly inconsistent with current international political realities. …”

Identification of widely conserved biosynthetic gene cluster involved in pigment production of Bacillus subtilis by Rune Overlund Stannius, Christopher A. Dunlap, Estelle Morvan, Mélanie Berbon, Sophie Lecomte, Antoine Loquet, Ákos T. Kovács

“…This study describes the chemical and biological features of a new class of SM BGC, which we hope will serve to improve the current BGC discovery pipelines in Bacilli.IMPORTANCEIdentification of novel microbial secondary metabolites (SMs) and their biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) has become increasingly difficult, especially in Bacilli, as the tools for screening and genome mining are dependent on clear function or similarity to already known BGCs. …”

T cell epitope content comparison using EpiCC correlates with vaccine efficacy against heterologous porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus type 2 strains by J. Mark Hammer, Andres H. Gutierrez, Lucas Huntimer, Benjamin Gabriel, William D. Martin, Sabine E. Hammer, Tobias Käser, Anne S. De Groot

“…While vaccines are available, they are not entirely effective, and the introduction of modified live virus vaccines (MLV) has contributed to an increase in the rate of viral evolution. While vaccines induce humoral responses that may contribute to immunity against PRRSV, vaccines containing T cell epitopes that are well-matched to circulating strains are believed to be more likely to induce protective effects upon challenge or field exposure. …”

Experimental study on tensile performance of horizontal joint bolted connections in fully assembled modular construction reinforced concrete by RAN Mingming, KOU Guangyun, XIONG Feng, ZHANG Dongdong, LI Wei

“…According to the calculation theory for punching shear failure bearing capacity, the reduced peak load-bearing capacity of Mode III compared to Mode II was attributed to the reduction in the effective height of the punching shear cone caused by the crushing zone, consequently resulting in decreased anti-punching shear capacity. In Mode IV, when the load was increased to 134.2 kN, abrupt fracture failure of the concrete at the cross-section above the operating hand-hole of the specimen was observed, with limited cracking. …”
