Phytochemical Screening, Antibacterial Activity, and Toxicity of Calathea lutea Leaf Extracts. [PDF]
In Colombia, there is a long tradition of using bijao (Calathea lutea) leaves to package or wrap various foods. However, scientific studies on C. lutea are limited, and research to evaluate its toxicity and/or antibacterial activity has not yet been conducted.

Cupric Oxide Nanostructures from Plasma Surface Modification of Copper [PDF]
Taking inspiration from the hydrophilic and superhydrophilic properties observed from the nanostructures present on the leaves of plants such as Alocasia odora, Calathea zebrina, and Ruelia devosiana, we were able to synthesize cupric oxide (CuO ...

Dos especies nuevas de calathea (Marantaceae) de la Amozonia Colombiana
Two new species of Marantaceae from Amazonian Colombia are described and illustrated: Calathea caquetensis and C. compacta. C. caquetensis is apparently related to C. attenuata and C. silvosa. C. compacta seems to be related to C. ecuminata, C.

Leaf Movements of Indoor Plants Monitored by Terrestrial LiDAR [PDF]
Plant leaf movement is induced by some combination of different external and internal stimuli. Detailed geometric characterization of such movement is expected to improve understanding of these mechanisms.

Structured Demographic Buffering: A Framework to Explore the Environmental Components and Demographic Mechanisms Underlying Demographic Buffering. [PDF]
Demographic buffering quantifies the degree to which a population's demographic rates reduce the negative impacts of environmental stochasticity. Here, we show that temporal variance and autocorrelation impact demographic buffering through different mechanisms. ABSTRACT Environmental stochasticity is a key determinant of population viability.

Anti-Motion Artifacts Iontronic Sensor for Long-Term Accurate Fingertip Pulse Monitoring. [PDF]
Flexible pressure sensors are essential for pulse monitoring and cardiovascular disease diagnosis but are affected by motion artifacts (MAs) due to stretching stress. The S‐smooth sensor with a soft‐hard stretchable interface that dissipates energy, reducing MAs by 90% is developed.

Photosynthesis under far-red light-evolutionary adaptations and bioengineering of light-harvesting complexes. [PDF]
Phototrophs evolved light‐harvesting systems adapted for efficient photon capture in habitats enriched in far‐red radiation. A subset of eukaryotic pigment‐binding proteins can absorb far‐red photons via low‐energy chlorophyll states known as red forms.
