Light Harvesting in Fluctuating Environments: Evolution and Function of Antenna Proteins across Photosynthetic Lineage

open access: yesPlants, 2021
Photosynthesis is the major natural process that can harvest and harness solar energy into chemical energy. Photosynthesis is performed by a vast number of organisms from single cellular bacteria to higher plants and to make the process efficient, all ...

Wood formation in Angiosperms [PDF]

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Biologies, 2010
Wood formation is a complex biological process, involving five major developmental steps, including (1) cell division from a secondary meristem called the vascular cambium, (2) cell expansion (cell elongation and radial enlargement), (3) secondary cell wall deposition, (4) programmed cell death, and (5) heartwood formation. Thanks to the development of

Functional Relationships Between Branch and Stem Wood Density for Temperate Tree Species in North America

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2020
Wood density is strongly related to key aspects of tree physiological performance. While many studies have examined wood density in different parts of trees, for a variety of reasons, there are very few studies that have compared within-tree density ...

Is there silicon in flowers and what does it tell us?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
The emergence of flowers marked an important development in plant evolution. Flowers in many species evolved to attract animal pollinators to increase fertilisation chances.

Lost in the bloom: DNA-PKcs in green plants

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
The DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs) is a protein encoded by the PRKDC gene in humans and plays a crucial role in repairing DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs).

Tracing the Evolution of the SEPALLATA Subfamily across Angiosperms Associated with Neo- and Sub-Functionalization for Reproductive and Agronomically Relevant Traits

open access: yesPlants, 2022
SEPALLATA transcription factors (SEP TFs) have been extensively studied in angiosperms as pivotal components of virtually all the MADS-box tetrameric complex master regulators of floral organ identities.

Ag/ZnO nanodots from Artemisia austroyunnanensis as antibacterial and anticancer agents against human neuroblastoma cells

open access: yesScientific Reports
The green synthesis of multifunctional Ag/ZnO nanodots using Artemisia austroyunnanensis leaf extract was explored for their antibacterial, antioxidant, and anticancer properties. Characterization techniques confirmed the successful synthesis of nanodots

Stomatal patterning in angiosperms [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, 2000
My thesis is that understanding stomatal patterning requires a holistic perspective. Since stomata are structures critical to the survival of terrestrial plants, they need to be viewed in relation to their function and their interface with other structural components.
