Transcriptome Assembly of the Bast Fiber Crop, Ramie, Boehmeria nivea (L.) Gaud. (Urticaceae)
Ramie (Boehmeria nivea) is a perennial crop valued for its strong bast fibers. Unlike other major bast fiber crops, ramie fiber processing does not include retting, but does require degumming, suggesting distinctive features in pectin and the development

Effects of fiber properties on shrinkage of fiber/PMMA composite-based bone cements
Fiber/polymethylmetacrylate (PMMA) composite bone cements were prepared with various fiber types (polyester and kevlar) in %1, 2 and 3 volumes. The shrinkage of the fiber/PMMA composite patterns were then calculated among 150 days. Results indicated that

The seasonal variation in inner bark width differed from that of xylem growth, indicating that xylem phenology cannot be reliably assessed without cellular observations. Abstract To better interpret continuous xylem growth measurements from dendrometers, we evaluated how the widths of developing xylem and phloem, along with seasonal trends in inner ...

Aphid Resistance in Pulse Crops: Sources, Mechanisms, Genetics and Breeding
ABSTRACT Aphids are major pests of pulse crops, causing damage through phloem sap feeding and virus transmission. In this context, resistant varieties are central components of sustainable aphid management. This review synthesizes current knowledge on resistance sources, phenotyping strategies, resistance mechanisms, genetic control and breeding ...

Ectopic lignification in the flax lignified bast fiber mutant
[début du texte] Flax is a fiber crop producing highly contrasted secondary cell wall structures in the stem. Cells from the inner xylem core have heavily lignified secondary cell walls containing almost 30 % lignin whereas the thick secondary cell walls
