Breaking Down Lignin: A Macromolecule's Path to the Nanoscale
Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.This section highlights lignin's critical role as a sustainable, multifunctional precursor for nanomaterial design. Its unique structure and abundance enable the creation of lignin‐based, lignin‐derived, and hybrid nanomaterials with tunable properties. Emphasis is placed on lignin's potential to drive innovation in nanotechnology, offering ecofriendly

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Flowers that present their anthers and stigma in close proximity can achieve precise animal‐mediated pollen transfer, but risk self‐pollination. One evolutionary solution is reciprocal herkogamy. Reciprocity of anther and style positions among different plants (i.e., a genetic dimorphism) is common in distylous plants, but very rare in

Mechanochromic Organic Materials: Molecular Mechanisms and Multidimensional Applications
Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.Mechanochromic (MC) organic materials change color in response to mechanical force. This review elucidates the molecular mechanisms (e.g., aggregation‐induced emission, AIE) and explores their multidimensional applications in sensors, anti‐counterfeiting, biomedical devices, and structural health monitoring, providing a roadmap for future smart ...
