QLEDs â light-emitting diodes that rely on nanocrystals called quantum dots â are usually made with toxic heavy metals. A strategy has been developed to make QLEDs with a performance comparable to that of commercially available technologies but using a more environmentally friendly alloy of zinc, selenium, telluriu

Pepper centromeres sit within ultra-long, trait-linked haplotypes - Nature Ecology & Evolution
2+ week, 5+ day ago (252+ words) Nature Ecology & Evolution (2026) Cite this article Pepper centromeres are embedded in ultra-long, recombination-suppressed haplotypes that can span more than 100 Mb. These centromere-spanning haplotypes (cenhaps) link genetic and epigenetic variation, are associated with various fruit traits and can show biased chromosome…...
