Unlike most plants, members of the genus Solanum produce cholesterol and use this as a precursor for steroidal glycoalkaloids. The production of the compounds begins as a branch from brassinosteroid biosynthesis, which produces cholesterol that is further modified to produce steroidal glycoalkaloids. during the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway, genetic engineering could alter the formation of cholesterol from provitamin d3(7-dehydrocholesterol) and produce vitamin d3. Cholesterol is a precursor for many steroidal glycoalkaloids, including a-tomatine and esculeoside A. Alpha-tomatine is consumed by mammals and it can reduce cholesterol content and improve LdL:HdL ratio. When there is a high a-tomatine content, the fruit will have a bitter flavor, which together with other steroidal glycoalkaloids serving as protective and defensive compounds for tomato against insect, fungal, and bacterial pests. These compounds also affect the rhizosphere bacteria by recruiting beneficial bacteria. One of the steroidal glycoalkaloids, esculeoside A increases while fruit ripening. This review focuses on recent studies that uncovered key reactions of the production of cholesterol and steroidal glycoalkaloids in tomato connecting to human health, fruit flavor, and plant defense and the potential application for tomato crop improvement.

CLiL, which stands for Content and Language integrated Learning, is an instructional approach that gives ample curricular and pedagogical attention to content and language outcomes in multilingual educational settings. increasingly, it is heralded as a way to responsibly enact top-down English-Medium-of-instruction (EMi) policies at the university level, where teachers and students are tasked with developing their English proficiency while remaining competitive in the international job market. However, teachers and teacher educators hoping to implement this approach in their science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) content courses face significant challenges. This article serves as an introduction to a guest-edited special issue that reports on several aspects related to a project of international collaboration called Project SCiLLA, an acronym for “STEM Content integrated with Language-Learning Activities”. We first provide a brief overview of the project, which was developed and carried out in collaboration between Michigan State University and a consortium of 10 rural universities in Kazakhstan as a way to support STEM educators who wish to adapt their teaching practices to Kazakhstan’s Ministry of Education. We then offer an overview of the six articles that comprise the special issue, and call for deliberate and dialogic international collaboration as a way to support teachers responding to language policy demands.

Observational data of ball lightning often contradict each other, so it was sometimes proposed to build a theory of ball lightning based on only a small number of statistically reliable observations. Work on this principle did not bring results. The correct approach to creating the theory of ball lightning should be the desire to explain all of its properties, even those that are rare. in the database of ball lightning observations, the most valuable are the cases when it left traces available for quantitative analysis, or was filmed by video cameras. Ball lightning is a material body consisting of a shell and a multi-element core. Cases of water heating made it possible to determine energy density of ball lightning, which turned out to be higher than 1010 J/m3. A study of results of ball lightning explosion, as well as its effect on snow, made it possible to assume that it is capable of generating radiation with a wavelength of about 10 cm, the power of which can be greater than 120 kW. Ball lightning has an electric charge of 10−3 - 10−1 C. The presence of an electric charge explains the complex nature of its movement in atmosphere. Ball lightning is formed under the action of magnetic field pulse and ultraviolet radiation of linear lightning channel. A model of ball lightning in the form of a core of charged “dynamic capacitors” and a shell of polarized water molecules is considered. it is shown that this shell is capable of withstanding the force of Coulomb repulsion of the core charges and the pressure caused by the movement of charge carriers. The glow of ball lightning core occurs due to orbital motion of electrons at a speed close to light speed. The intensity of the glow is determined by the degree of uniformity of electrons arrangement along the orbit.
