Assembling Hexahedral Supramolecular Nano‐Aggregates on Rice Wax Layer Matrices to Promote the Leaf Deposition and Bioavailability of Bactericides for Plant Protections

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
To address the problem of off‐target movement and low bioavailability of pesticides, two anisotropic supramolecular building units (BiTA18@β‐CD and BiTA18@γ‐CD) have been invented that can self‐assemble into nano‐sized hexagonal cuboids on the rice microcrystalline matrix. This manipulation realizes the enhanced utilization of bactericides for rice and

Single‐Cell Transcriptome Reveals Aquaporin‐Mediated Carbon Nanosol‐Induced Growth Promotion of Plants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Carbon nanosol (CNS) exhibits rapid root penetration capacity, enhancing plant growth through boosting stomatal density and antioxidative enzyme activity. Single‐cell transcriptomic profiling uncovers cell type‐specific gene expression patterns and developmental trajectories during CNS‐mediated growth promotion.

Limitation of cellulose accessibility and unproductive binding of cellulases by pretreated sugarcane bagasse lignin

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2017
BackgroundThe effectiveness of the enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose in plant cell wall is strongly influenced by the access of enzymes to cellulose, which is at least in part limited by the presence of lignin.

Genetic Impacts on the Structure and Mechanics of Cellulose Made by Bacteria

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A genetic mutation in a protease of a cellulose‐overproducing evolved bacterium significantly affects the proteome, structure, and mechanical properties of bio‐fabricated cellulose pellicles. By overexpressing synthase proteins that build the cellulose‐forming biological machinery of the cell, the evolved bacterium generates dense, stiff, and strong ...
