What was a mortarium used for? Organic residues and cultural change in Iron Age and Roman Britain. [PDF]
The Romans brought the mortarium to Britain in the first century AD, and there has long been speculation on its actual purpose. Using analysis of the residues trapped in the walls of these ‘kitchen blenders’ and comparing them with Iron Age and Roman ...

Ustilago maydis secreted lipase, Lip3 targets PA and PS and alkalinises the host apoplast, thus promoting virulence. Loss of Lip3 results in reduced apoplastic pH and decreased pathogenicity. ABSTRACT Lipases constitute important virulence factors. By targeting specific lipids involved in various cellular processes, lipases regulate growth, development,

ABSTRACT The synthesis and accumulation of active ingredients in medicinal plants are distributed in specific organs, tissues, and cell types, which are important for the exploitation of medicinal plants. However, the fine distribution of active ingredients is difficult to know. Here, the system of mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) integrated with single‐

Identification and Characterization of Reduced Epicuticular Wax Mutants in Rice
Epicuticular wax forms the outermost protective barrier of the aerial surfaces of land plants, working in concert with other components of the plant cuticle to prevent uncontrolled loss of water and to provide protection against an array of external ...

Wax Lipids from Leaf Surfaces of Some Common plants of Malaysia [PDF]
Epicuticular wax lipids from leaves of some common plant species found in the Klang Valley, Malaysia were extracted into dichloromethane for analysis. Extracts were separated into hydrocarbon, carboxylic acid, ketone and alcohol fractions. The fractions

Ontogenic variations in n-alkanes during somatic embryogenesis of flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) [PDF]
Hypocotyl segments of flax seedlings germinated in vitro, were used to induce indirect somatic embryogenesis on solid medium. The composition and distribution of n-alkanes in flax tissues collected at different developmental stages were studied by GC and

A patterned dual‐lubricant SLIPS creates interfacial energy asymmetry, guiding droplet migration without external actuation. Condensed droplets formed on the fluorinated‐oil‐infused regions migrate to the silicone‐oil‐infused domains, where rapid growth and coalescence occur.
