The Plant‐to‐Plant Circular Strategy: Coupling Photodegradation and Phytoremediation With Plant‐Based Nanomaterials for Plastic Degradation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Plant‐based nanomaterials derived from alfalfa serve as dual‐function catalysts, coupling photodegradation and phytoremediation to degrade polyethylene under UV‐A light and in soil. The nanomaterials work synergistically with alfalfa and soil microbes, achieving efficient plastic breakdown without trophic transfer.

Investigations of the Evolved Molecular Basis for Terpenoid Biosynthesis in Marine Sponges

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Confirming and extending a previous observation in another Bubarida sponge, genomic and functional analyses of A. cavernosa reveal that sponges retain the mevalonate pathway and employ single α‐domain T1TSs and UbiA‐type TSs for terpenoid biosynthesis. The absence of T1TSs clustering with other biosynthetic genes tentatively suggests, based on limited ...

Thermal‐Ionic Coupling in Transpiration‐Inspired Janus Nanofiber Membranes: Synergistic Dry‐Wet Interface Engineering for Solar‐Driven Electricity Generation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A transpiration‐inspired Janus nanofiber membrane creates a persistent dry‐wet interface that couples localized solar heating with hydration‐induced ion regulation. The asymmetric architecture sustains directional water and ion transport, suppresses salt accumulation, and enables simultaneous seawater evaporation and stable electricity generation ...
