Selection for Male Weapons Boosts Female Fecundity, Eliminating Sexual Conflict in the Bulb Mite.

abstract：:Solute segregating to grain boundary can stabilize the microstructure of nanocrystalline materials, but a lot of solutes also cause embrittlement effect on interfacial strength. Therefore, uncovering the solute effect on grain boundary strength is very important for nanocrystalline alloys design. In this work, we have...
