Emerging Topics in Metal Complexes
Due to their pharmacological potential, metal complexes and compounds have been arousing the interest of many research centers worldwide. The structure and properties of many metal coordination compounds make them therapeutically effective. They are used not only in the treatment of some modern-age diseases but also in clinical diagnostics. Currently, metal complexes and compounds (such as polyoxometalates) are prominent players in medicine and medicinal chemistry.Despite the progress in the knowledge of the pharmacological activity of certain metals and their complexes, further studies are still needed, as the mechanisms of action of the potential drugs containing metal ions are not sufficiently recognized yet. Moreover, the side effects of the use of metal coordination compounds in the treatment of some diseases (mainly cancer) and resistance to treatment are a serious problem in modern medicine. Therefore, there is a constant search for new therapeutics based on metal complexes that would ensure better treatment results and contribute to a significant slowdown in the progression of diseases. The therapeutic targets, bioavailability, and pharmacokinetics of metal-containing compounds have to be clarified in detail with reference to metal-based drugs, which may guarantee potential clinical success.
Antimicrobial Resistance and Hospital- and Community-Associated Infections
The aim of this Special Issue is to provide updated information about antibiotic resistance in healthcare-associated infections or community infections worldwide. It is known that antimicrobial resistance is a significant threat to global human health.

Animal Welfare from a Cross-Cultural Perspective
Animal welfare encompasses the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of other-than-human animals. Humans have a responsibility to ensure that the welfare needs of domesticated and/or otherwise captive animals are met. Some argue that the welfare needs of wild-living animals should also be considered. However, beliefs about what the needs of a species or an individual animal entail and what constitutes good practice can vary greatly. An understanding of different cultural perspectives is especially pertinent for researchers and animal advocates concerned with the welfare of animals situated in touristic, foreign (relative to the researcher), or culturally diverse contexts. Cultural sensitivity is argued to be paramount to building relationships and addressing concerns related to animal welfare. Furthermore, culture is being increasingly recognised as existing in various forms across species. The articles in this collection shed light on diverse issues surrounding animal welfare, each providing a unique perspective on how cultural contexts, governance, and more-than-human relationships shape our understanding of animal welfare. Despite the diversity of these issues, there is a unifying call for more humane treatment of species and individuals, necessitating cross-cultural understanding, tailored policies, and innovative solutions.
Crop Functional Genomics and Biological Breeding
Over the past two decades, the rapid development of functional genomics has gradually clarified the regulatory effects of genotypes on phenotypes. Crop breeding researchers have discovered numerous genes influencing critical traits such as yield, resistance, and quality. By targeting these genes, scientists have achieved a more customized variety of breeding through biological breeding. Crop functional genomics research is a vital pathway for biological breeding. Understanding the functional genomics of crops provides deep insights into the genetic mechanisms controlling key traits like yield, stress resistance, and quality improvement. The goal of this Special Issue in Plants, "Crop Functional Genomics and Biological Breeding", is to present an overview of the latest research and discoveries in crop functional genomics from plant journals, including studies on gene responses to stresses through whole-genome and transcriptome analyses and the identification and cloning of new genes related to crop yield, resistance, germination, and quality, and also covers functional analyses of these genes and their applications in biological breeding. We welcome all readers to this Reprint that covers several fields: the genetic and functional characterization of genes regulating critical agronomic traits or plant development; the genetic improvement in crops using modern biotechnologies, such as gene editing; and the discovery, characterization and application of germplasm resources with elite characteristics.

Flowering and Flower Development in Plants
In the life cycle of plants, the phase transition from vegetative growth to reproductive growth is very important. Many species have evolved multiple ways to adapt to the environment and endogenous factors to regulate flowering. It is now known that plant flowering is mainly regulated by five main signal pathways, namely, photoperiod, vernalization, age, autonomy, and gibberellin. In addition, it is also affected by some environmental factors such as drought stress, salt stress, cold stress, nutrient deficiency, heat damage, sugar budget, oxygen stress, and biotic stress. Furthermore, the quality and quantity of flowers determine the yield of crops and the quality of fruits. Flower development has been summarized as the ABC model and then extended to the ABCDE model. A large number of related genes have been cloned and functionally identified in annual plants and perennial plants. Over recent years, enormous scientific progress has been made to understand the molecular basis of flowering and flower development. However, flowering and flower development still need to be further explored for future crop breeding.

Polymers
The second edition of Macromolecular Chemistry broadens into two areas: biomacromolecules, Volume 1 and polymers, Volume 2. Polymers covers polymer history, polymerization reactions, polymer morphology, technology, characterization and testing, processing, and recycling. The book discusses the building blocks of synthetic polymers, comparison of macromolecules and polymers, polymer classification, and illustration of polymer chemical structures. Polymerization reactions such as step-growth polymerization and chain-growth polymerization are extensively discussed. It then presents tacticity, molecular interactions and polymer crystals. Biodegradable polymers, biomedical polymers, conducting polymers, electroluminescent polymers, water-soluble polymers, additives, adhesives, fibres, and coatings are described. The next section explores inorganic polymers such as polysilanes, polysiloxanes, and polyphosphazenes. The book then delves into polymer characterization and testing, including Infrared Spectroscopy, Raman Spectroscopy, NMR, X-ray Spectroscopy, and Electron Microscopy, and the last section addresses selected polymer processing techniques such as moulding, casting, extrusion, coatings, and foaming.
