Yes, we CAM! First evidence of CAM photosynthesis in a carnivorous plant
Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 272-281, January 2026.Evidence for weak, facultative CAM is reported for the first time in a carnivorous plant, i.e., in Mexican representatives of Pinguicula (Lentibulariaceae). Abstract Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a photosynthetic adaptation enabling higher CO2 concentration close to Rubisco and increased water use efficiency.

“Bobbit Worm”‐Inspired Soft Adaptive Grasper with Self‐Generated Triboelectric Force Sensor
Advanced Sensor Research, Volume 3, Issue 5, May 2024.A Bobbit worm‐inspired multimodal‐sensing adaptive soft grasper (MSASG) is proposed by employing Miura‐ori skeleton and self‐generated triboelectric force sensors (TFSs). Such a MSASG can successfully identify and swiftly capture diverse living organisms, including hermit crabs (24 mN), and crickets (10 mN), with an extremely low energy consumption of ...
