Natural Crossing in Fiber Flax

Japanese Journal of Crop Science, 1959
Fiber flax belongs to self-pollinating plant, but in the flowering period flowers are usually visited by many kind of insects such as honey bees, Bombus spp., Megachile spp., hover flies, butterflies, etc. The investigation was carried out from 1954 to 1957 to know how many extent viable foreign pollen will be brought and how many natural crossing will

Integrated Analysis of Grapevine Responses to Winter Pruning Reveals Temperature‐Associated, Polyphenol‐Rich Xylem Occlusions

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Perennial crops are continually wounded throughout cultivation. To limit pathogen infection and tissue dehydration, plants have evolved a range of wound responses that protect damaged tissues. These responses include changes in gene expression and the synthesis of protective compounds such as polyphenols.

Using Natural Fibres and Indigenous Knowledge to Develop Alternatives to Plastic Ropes Used in Mussel Aquaculture

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 4, December 2026.
Aquaculture relies extensively on plastic materials, creating a need for lower‐plastic alternatives that retain the functional properties required for production. This study combined mātauranga Māori and science to identify natural plant fibres suitable for manufacturing mussel ropes and to evaluate their ability to catch and retain Greenshell mussel ...

Physico-Mechanical, Thermal and Biodegradation Performance of Random Flax/Polylactic Acid and Unidirectional Flax/Polylactic Acid Biocomposites

Fibers, 2018
Fully biodegradable flax/polylactic acid (PLA) thermoplastic composites were fabricated by using random (nonwoven mat) and aligned (unidirectional yarn) flax fiber as reinforcements (39% flax by volume) and Polylactic acid (PLA) as matrix.

Nanofiber PVA‐Based Membranes Incorporating Functionalized Spanish Broom Derivatives for Sustainable Water Purification

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, Volume 9, Issue 6, November 2026.
This study investigates Spanish broom (Spartium junceum) as a renewable source for electrospun composite membranes in sustainable water purification. MCC and biochar were functionalized with eco‐friendly precursors and nanomaterials (i.e., HNT, β‐CDs) to develop hybrid PVA nanofiber composites.
