Bridging Performance and Fate: A Framework for Sustainable, Composite‐Based Flexible Electronic Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Composite‐based flexible electronics integrate biodegradable polymers, conductive networks, and multilayer device architectures to balance electrical performance, mechanical durability, and controlled degradation. Interfacial engineering and encapsulation regulate transport stability and operational lifetime, while programmed disassembly enables ...

XvGoIS, a galactinol synthase is transcriptionally upregulated under water deficit : the role of raffinosaccharides in abiotic stress tolerance in the resurrection plant Xerophyta viscosa (Baker)

open access: yes, 2005
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 84-102).As part of an ongoing project to genetically manipulate maize for increased abiotic stress tolerance, we have isolated and identified a number of genes from the resurrection plant Xerophyta viscosa ...

Seeds of change: The impact of Ethiopia's direct seed marketing approach on smallholders' seed purchases and productivity

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract While multiple factors explain low adoption rates of improved varieties by small‐scale farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa, a key supply‐side constraint is the limited availability of seed embodying new traits in the volume, quality, price, and timeliness required by farmers. This constraint is partly attributable to classical failures in the market

LEA13 and LEA30 Are Involved in Tolerance to Water Stress and Stomata Density in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yes, 2021
Late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins are a large protein family that mainly function in protecting cells from abiotic stress, but these proteins are also involved in regulating plant growth and development.

Harnessing plant‐based platform for low‐cost cellulosic sugar recovery from bioenergy crops

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The price of pure cellulase enzyme for the recovery of fermentable cellulosic sugars is one of the major challenges that limit the commercialization of second‐generation biofuels and bio‐based products. This work shows a means to greatly reduce the cost of cellulases. The abundant capacity of plants to synthesize and hyperaccumulate transgenic

Molecular Mechanisms Associated with Plant Tolerance upon Abiotic Stress

open access: yes
The important processes of plants are influenced by adverse environmental factors, which can have a negative impact on their growth and development. The last decade has seen an increase in the impact of abiotic stress on plants due to climate changes ...

A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.

Genome-wide characterization of the glutathione S-transferase gene family in Phaseolus vulgaris reveals insight into the roles of their members in responses to multiple abiotic stresses

open access: yesPlant Stress
Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are a class of multifunctional enzymatic antioxidants that play a significant role in several aspects of plant physiology, including growth, development, and cellular protection from biotic and abiotic stressors. A total

Classifying avian drinking behaviour: ecological insights and implications in a changing world

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water is a fundamental currency of life, and its availability significantly influences animal behaviour, physiology and distributions. However, our knowledge around the dependence on water for drinking and the direct and indirect mechanisms driving related behaviours remains partial in the context of changing climates. Here, we review patterns
