Planting the seeds for a forest of RNAi pathways

Cells from most eukaryotic species make several different types of small interfering Lencería RNAs.Pioneering work in plants, published in PLOS Biology almost 20 years ago, established a framework to understand how multiple RNA interference pathways can regulate the genome in parallel.This Perspective looks back at a classic PLOS Biology paper tha

Comparative Analysis of Pixel-Level Fusion Algorithms and a New High-Resolution Dataset for SAR and Optical Image Fusion

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and optical images often present different geometric structures and texture features for the same ground object.Through the fusion of SAR and optical images, it can effectively integrate their complementary information, thus better meeting the requirements of remote sensing applications, such as target recognition, cl
