ABSTRACTThe patterning of stomata – the pores in the plant epidermis that facilitate gas exchange and water control – is regulated by a family of small secreted peptides. A new paper in Development analyses the effective ranges of two such peptides, borrowing a statistical technique used by astrophysicists to investigate the distribution and patterning of galaxies. We caught up with authors Emily Lo, who worked on the project when an undergraduate at the University of Washington (UW), and her supervisor Keiko Torii, who recently moved her lab from UW to The University of Texas at Austin (where she is Professor and Johnson & Johnson Centennial Chair in Plant Cell Biology), to hear more about the story.

ABSTRACTThe anterior to posterior extension of the vertebrate body axis relies on a population of bipotent neuromesodermal progenitors in the tailbud. A new paper in Development uncovers a crucial and unexpected new role for Hox13 genes in sustaining these progenitors to promote axis extension in zebrafish. To hear more about the story, we caught up with the paper's two authors: postdoctoral researcher Zhi Ye and his supervisor David Kimelman, Professor of Biochemistry and Adjunct Professor of Biology at the University of Washington, Seattle.

Blood cells emerge in several waves through a number of different progenitors during embryonic development. A new paper in Development investigates whether the development of B1 lymphocytes, a type of B cell, is dependent on the differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells. To hear more about the story, we caught up with joint first authors Nathalia Azevedo Portilho and Rebecca Scarfò, and their respective supervisors Momoko Yoshimoto, Associate Professor at the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston, USA, and Andrea Ditadi, Group Leader at the IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele in Milan, Italy.

On March 19, 2011, the discipline of cell biology lost a creative force with the passing of Richard G.W. Anderson, Professor and Chairman of the Department of Cell Biology at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School. An unabashed chauvinist for cell biology, Dick served for many years on the editorial board of The Journal of Cell Biology and the Council of the American Society for Cell Biology. He died of glioblastoma multiforme six days before his 71st birthday.

Paranoid Style

Discovering why the 2020 election turned out as it did will, given the complexities of American politics, take considerable time. Discovering how Trump lost and how Biden won will take longer. This article presents an initial foray in the latter direction by subjecting the rhetoric of the campaign to computerized language analysis via the DICTION program. In doing so, this study is the most recent outgrowth of the Campaign Mapping Project, begun at the University of Texas in Austin in 1995 and designed to produce comparative rhetorical data about presidential campaigns from 1948 to the present. The argument being made here is that Donald Trump lost the election by making excessive use of what Richard Hofstadter calls the Paranoid Style. In addition, Trump made exaggerated claims about abstract and unprovable conspiracies, all of which seemed derivative to voters worried about their health and their jobs in 2020. Joe Biden, in contrast, stressed Commonality—the need for shared purpose during a dangerous and dispiriting time. Biden also spoke directly of and to the people, thereby taking a page out of Trump’s own 2016 playbook. In many ways, Donald Trump’s self-preoccupations made him blind to the needs of the electorate, a habit that developed over the course of his presidency and that ultimately cost him his job.

Plant Cell Walls

The comprehension of the molecular architecture of plant cell walls is one of the best examples in cell biology which illustrates how developments in microscopy have extended the frontiers of a topic. Indeed from the first electron microscope observation of cell walls it has become apparent that our understanding of wall structure has advanced hand in hand with improvements in the technology of specimen preparation for electron microscopy. Cell walls are sub-cellular compartments outside the peripheral plasma membrane, the construction of which depends on a complex cellular biosynthetic and secretory activity (1). They are composed of interwoven polymers, synthesised independently, which together perform a number of varied functions. Biochemical studies have provided us with much data on the varied molecular composition of plant cell walls. However, the detailed intermolecular relationships and the three dimensional arrangement of the polymers in situ remains a mystery. The difficulty in establishing a general molecular model for plant cell walls is also complicated by the vast diversity in wall composition among plant species.

This research discussed the issue of the development of learning module based computer technology especially a powerpoint. This module is intended to help students receive the material that was delivered by lecturer especially design structured matter which currently learning module media shaped print and the contents of the text are form module so the university students ca not see the material . Based on these problems was built a module learning computer technology with a powerpoint . The reason the manufacture of the module was structured design material with a picture and a symbol of in designing a system so it needs to ease student visualiasi received mater learning. Method of development this module use the model ADDIE (analysis, design, development, implementation and evaluation). Results in this research validated by 2 ( two ) experts namely the people of material said 80% module very reasonable used without revision and media experts said 84% module very reasonable used without revision while results trial by college students by means of pre-test and post-test. The results obtained module very well be used.
