Current Research on Hyperspectral and Multispectral Imaging and Their Applications in Precision Agriculture Ⅱ
Due to increasing human interference and continuing climate change, crops are facing a variety of stresses, including diseases, insect pests, drought, heat, cold, frost, flooding, excessive fertilization, and environmental pollution. Crops are characterized by a variety of planting types, a wide distribution range, and significant differences in growing environments. It is therefore essential to accurately and rapidly identify and quantify these stresses on a much larger scale. Advanced methods and measurements are required to overcome the limitations of traditional manual surveys and visual observations. Data acquisition approaches must shift from in situ random sampling to continuous airborne or spaceborne monitoring. The rapid development of hyperspectral and multispectral imaging (HSI and MSI, respectively) techniques has facilitated significant advancements in monitoring, classification, identification, and diagnosis in crop fields. At present, such methods are widely used in areas such as agriculture, forestry, pasture, and ecology, among others. However, data preprocessing, feature selection algorithms, sample quantity, classifiers, and accuracy assessment often vary based on different crops and HSI and MSI data sources. There are a number of critical issues that need to be urgently addressed, such as small-sample classification, spectral dimensionality reduction, and the selection of sensitive spectral bands. The following Special Issue aims to facilitate the exchange of knowledge and promote development regarding any aspect related to crop fields based on various HSI and MSI techniques, thereby facilitating their introduction and application in precise monitoring and diagnosis.
The Catalyst
For over half a century, DNA has dominated science and the popular imagination as the "secret of life." But over the last several decades, a quiet revolution has taken place. In a series of breathtaking discoveries, the biochemist Thomas R. Cech and a diverse cast of brilliant scientists have revealed that RNA--long overlooked as the passive servant of DNA--sits at the center of biology's greatest mysteries: How did life begin? What makes us human? Why do we get sick and grow old? In The Catalyst, Cech finally brings together years of research to demonstrate that RNA is the true key to understanding life on Earth, from its very origins to our future in the twenty-first century.A gripping journey of discovery, The Catalyst moves from the early experiments that first hinted at RNA's spectacular powers, to Cech's own paradigm-shifting finding that it can catalyze cellular reactions, to the cutting-edge biotechnologies poised to reshape our health. We learn how RNA--once thought merely to transmit DNA's genetic instructions to the cell's protein-making machinery--may have jump-started life itself, and how, at the same time, it can cut our individual lives short through viral diseases and cancer. We see how RNA is implicated in the aging process and explore the darker depths of the supposed fountain of youth, telomerase. And we catch a thrilling glimpse into how RNA-powered therapies--from CRISPR, the revolutionary tool that uses RNA to rewrite the code of life, to the groundbreaking mRNA vaccines that have saved millions during the pandemic, and more--may enable us to improve and even extend life beyond nature's current limits.Written by one of our foremost scientists, The Catalyst is a must-read guide to the present and future of biology and medicine.

The Ecology and Evolution of Invasive Populations
Invasive populations are ubiquitous and invariably carry consequences. A gene for herbicide resistance spreads; a tumour grows in a loved one's body; an agricultural pest sweeps across the country; a new pathogen proliferates around the world. All of these are invasive populations -- populations of genes, cells, or organisms spreading without control and having massive impact. Our collective desire to understand how invasive populations spread has inspired a rich body of basic theory developed from foundations laid in physics and statistics over a century ago. This theory has, however, often failed to explain real patterns in nature because a key consideration has been missing -- evolution. The last few decades have seen a growing awareness that evolution plays out on timescales that matter to many systems. The recent emergence of evolutionary thinking in invasion biology has generated important new ideas and has enriched our understanding not only of invasions but of ecology and evolution more broadly. This accessible textbook introduces these new ideas. It provides both a survey of the field -- a story about the history and development of our understanding -- as well as a synthesis of the new developments. There are many titles on biological invasions that typically take a purely ecological viewpoint, whilst those texts in which evolution does feature have tended to concentrate on adaptation to new environments. This book instead focuses on the intimate interplay between ecological and evolutionary processes as populations spread through time and space. The Ecology and Evolution of Invasive Populations is an advanced textbook aimed at graduate students and researchers in ecology and evolutionary biology seeking a broad, up-to-date, and authoritative overview of the field. The study of biological invasions is no longer a specialized sub-discipline of ecology; this book will also be of relevance to a far broader academic readership from disciplines ranging across physics, mathematics, and medicine.

Unlocking Nature’s Defenses
Biofilms contribute to persistent infections and biofouling because they are extremely robust and can be difficult to treat with traditional antibiotics.Understanding how bacteria and other microbes stick to surfaces, create intricate structures, and fend off antimicrobial treatments is made easier by research on biofilm development. This knowledge is essential for creating innovative preventative and therapeutic approaches for illnesses linked to biofilm formation, particularly in clinical settings.Numerous plants generate bioactive substances that can prevent the formation of biofilms or disturb existing ones, making the research of anti-biofilm plant metabolites very important. Through the identification and isolation of these molecules, scientists can create sustainable, natural substitutes for synthetic antibacterial drugs. The production of natural, potent anti-biofilm chemicals is made possible by this research, which will benefit both industry and healthcare.The writers' endeavour to address the essential concepts and principles of biofilm and the research on anti-biofilm metabolites from medicinal plants is evident in this literary work.

This book introduces semantic representations of multiscale, multidomain physiological systems that link to qualitative reasoning and to quantitative analysis of biophysical processes in health and disease. Two major public health problems, diabetes and hypertension, serve as use-cases to illustrate the depth and rigor of such representations for logical inference and quantitative analysis. Central to this approach is the Ontology of Physics for Biology (OPB) that formally represents the foundations of classical physics and engineering system dynamics that are the basis for our understanding of biomedical entities, processes, and functional relationships.Furthermore, we introduce OPB-based software for annotating and abstracting available biosimulation models for reuse, recombination, and for archiving of physics-based biomedical knowledge. We have formalized and leveraged physics-based biological knowledge as a working view of physiology and biophysics from three distinct perspectives: (1) biologists and biomedical investigators, (2) biophysicists and bioengineers, and (3) biomedical ontologists and informaticists. We present a logical and intuitive semantics of classical physics as a tool for mediating and translating biophysical knowledge among biomedical domains.Daniel L. Cook, MD, PhDJohn H.
