Moderate UV-A supplementation benefits tomato seed and seedling invigoration: a contribution to the use of UV in seed technology
TL;DR: The results demonstrated the benefits of supplementing seeds/seedlings with moderate UV-A dose, being evident an acceleration/synchronization of germination rates, higher biomass and cotyledon area, and a stimulation of photosynthetic pigments and anthocyanins in all cultivars analysed.

Titanium dioxide nanoparticles: Toxicity and genotoxicity in Drosophila melanogaster (SMART eye-spot test and comet assay in neuroblasts).
TL;DR: TiO2NP increased fly prolificacy and genotoxicity, and an increase was observed in the eye-spot SMART assay at 8 μg/mL dose, but not in the neuroblast comet assay for DNA damage.

Winter Is (Not) Coming: Is Climate Change Helping Drosophila suzukii Overwintering?
Sara Sario,José Melo-Ferreira,Conceição Santos +2 more
TL;DR: In this article , a review explores how Drosophila suzukii adapts to survive during cold seasons, focusing on overwintering strategies of behavioral adaptations such as migration or sheltering, seasonal polyphenism, reproductive adaptations, as well as metabolic and transcriptomic changes in response to cold.

Low Doses of Anatase and Rutile Nanoparticles Differently Modulate Photosynthesis and Regulatory Genes: A Contribution to the Nanoagroindustry
Nuno Mariz-Ponte,Sara Sario,Rafael J. Mendes,M. Couto,Emil Gimranov,Marino Santos,Cristiana V. Correia,Anicia Gomes,Paulo R. Oliveira-Pinto,Isabela Moraes Amorim,Maria Celeste Dias,José Miguel P. Ferreira de Oliveira,Conceição Santos +12 more
TL;DR: Compared with control, RA showed positive effects on photophosphorylation-related parameters and discriminative effects of TiO2 NPs, based on their formulation and dose, may present advantages for their use in the precision nanoagroindustry.
