Physiological characteristics and transcriptomic analyses of alfalfa root crown in wintering
Frontiers in Plant ScienceBackgroundAlfalfa, scientifically identified as Medicago sativa, is repeatedly referred to as the “king of forages”. Because of its tight relationship to winter hardiness, the alfalfa’s root crown plays a significant role as a storage organ over the ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Through direct application of porous transport layer (PTL) on the bipolar plate (BPP) with thermal spraying, the interfacial contact resistance is improved. With the cold gas sprayed BPP–PTL coating system, a proton exchange membrane water electrolysis cell with a cell voltage of Ucell = 1.9 V can be operated up to i = 2.5 A/cm2 in a dynamic mode ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This paper presents a novel approach to reducing oxide layers on metal powders using low‐temperature hydrogen dielectric barrier discharge plasmas at atmospheric pressure. Unlike conventional hydrogen‐plasma reductions, the powders do not contact the plasma directly.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Mg–Zn composites with a thickness of 0.21 mm were fabricated using roll bonding of a kirigami‐patterned Mg alloy inlay within a Zn matrix. Thermal activation following this process led to the formation of tailored intermetallic structures, which provided the composite with enhanced flexural strength.
