New Approaches in Synthetic Biology: Abiotic Organelles and Artificial Cells Powered and Controlled by Light [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
One of the major goals of nanobionics and bottom-up synthetic biology is the development of artificial cell organelles for the creation of cell-like structures operating similar to biological systems with a minimalistic set of building blocks.

The spatial distribution of a hummingbird‐pollinated plant is not strongly influenced by hummingbird abundance

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Many angiosperms have evolved specialized systems that promote pollination by specific taxa. Therefore, plant distributions may be limited by the local abundance of their specialist pollinators. In eastern North America, Lobelia cardinalis is thought to be pollinated solely by Archilochus colubris, the only hummingbird species found in

Cassava MeRS40 is required for the regulation of plant salt tolerance

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2023
Soil salinity affects the expression of serine/arginine-rich (SR) genes and isoforms by alternative splicing, which in turn regulates the adaptation of plants to stress.

Influence of abiotic factors on growth and biosynthesis of secondary plant components in Duboisia species

, 2016
Die in Australien beheimatete Pflanzengattung Duboisia, die historisch schon von den Aborigines verwendet wurde, ist bis heute die Hauptquelle der medizinisch genutzten Tropanalkaloide. Davon werden Scopolamin und dessen Derivate häufig als anticholinerge Wirkstoffe in der Behandlung von postoperativer Übelkeit und Erbrechen, Reiseübelkeit sowie ...

Distribution of natural radionuclide40K in biotic and abiotic components of the Cauvery river system, Tiruchirapalli, India

Journal of Biosciences, 1992
Abiotic components like water and sediment, and biotic components such as mussels, fish and grass collected from Cauvery river at Tiruchirapalli were analysed for40K activity. The highest level of40K activity was found in the sediment (342 mBq g-1 dry weight) and the lowest activity was found in water (2·209 mBq ml−1). In the freshwater musselParreysia

The role of mangrove fine root production and decomposition on soil organic carbon component ratios

Ecological Indicators, 2021
Mangrove fine roots are an important contributor to soil organic matter (SOC), yet how their production and decomposition affect SOC accumulation across the sea-land gradient is still elusive.

Influence of some environmental variables on the diversity and distribution of aquatic oligochaetes (Clitellata: Annelida) in the Nyong estuary (Atlantic coast, southern Cameroon)

Scientific African
Tropical estuarine ecosystems are subject to strong anthropogenic pressures, with the direct consequence of declining or lost biodiversity. An essential and little-known biological component of these estuarine ecosystems is the population of oligochaete ...

Functional diversity of farmland bees across rural–urban landscapes in a tropical megacity

Ecological Applications, Volume 32, Issue 8, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Urbanization poses a major threat to biodiversity and food security, as expanding cities, especially in the Global South, increasingly compete with natural and agricultural lands. However, the impact of urban expansion on agricultural biodiversity in tropical regions is overlooked.
