Offshore wind energy plays a crucial role in the transition to low‐carbon power generation. The expansion of offshore wind farms (OWFs) introduces anthropogenic electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from subsea power cables. Elasmobranchs, including sharks and rays, are sensitive to natural electric and magnetic fields used for navigation and prey detection, making them potentially vulnerable to anthropogenic EMFs as they may alter or...

This study examines whether the dispersion of passive particles at the free surface of a generic (nonturbulent) shallow flow can reliably represent the behavior of depth-keeping particles below the surface. A shallow configuration characterize many aquatic environments, such as coastal regions and lakes, where horizontal scales far exceed vertical ones, large-scale flow structures dominate, and observations are sometimes limit...

The European potato germplasm originated from a few founding genotypes, and its narrow genetic base has since been broadened through introgressions from wild relatives. We combined pedigree records and genome-wide SNP data to trace the origin, spread, and contributing ancestors of modern breeding introgressions in Europe. We first used a curated pedigree database to identify the Major Contributing Ancestors (MCAs) of 1209 vari...

Fresh groundwater resources in coastal regions are vital for modern society, but are under considerable pressure due to population growth, seasonal peaks in demand, pollution and climate change. In recent years, interest in offshore freshened groundwater (OFG) has surged, as potential resource for addressing these challenges. Recent studies have documented OFG occurrences on many continental margins and islands, with global vo...

The management of autoimmune diseases is currently limited by therapies that largely suppress the immune system, often resulting in partial and temporary remissions. Cellular immunotherapies offer a targeted approach by redirecting immune cells to correct the underlying autoimmunity. This review explores the latest advances in cellular immunotherapies for autoimmune diseases, focusing on various strategies, such as the use of...

Key message Potato bolters are caused by excision of a transposon from the StCDF1.3 allele, resulting in a somatic mutant with late maturity . Abstract Somatic mutations during vegetative propagation can lead to novel genotypes, known as sports. In cultivated potato ( Solanum tuberosum ), a recurring sport type, called ‘Bolters’, is characterized by vigorous haulms and prolonged flowering. Bolters emerge spontaneously during p...
