Single‐cell Transcriptome Profiling Reveals Gene Regulatory Networks and Key Genes in the Root Epidermis and Cortical Cells Associated with Early Nodulation in Glycine Max

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell transcriptomics of soybean roots soon after rhizobial inoculation reveals epidermal and cortical cell‐specific programs and gene‐regulatory networks acting in symbiosis establishment. We identify an ethylene‐driven regulatory circuit involving WRKY6.3/6.4 transcription factors targeting select Nod19 genes that promotes infection‐thread ...

Cottonisation of Decorticated Flax Fibres

open access: yesFibres and Textiles in Eastern Europe, 2017
The commonly used flax process of decortication allows the mechanical extraction of fibre from plant stems without prior retting. The one-type fibre obtained in this process is characterised by very low quality, as it is poorly divided, has high linear mass and high amounts of impurities. This paper presents a description of a newly developed method of

Bridging Performance and Fate: A Framework for Sustainable, Composite‐Based Flexible Electronic Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Composite‐based flexible electronics integrate biodegradable polymers, conductive networks, and multilayer device architectures to balance electrical performance, mechanical durability, and controlled degradation. Interfacial engineering and encapsulation regulate transport stability and operational lifetime, while programmed disassembly enables ...

Development of novel flax bio-matrix composites for non-structural and structural vehicle applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The use of natural fibres (e.g. flax, hemp etc.) instead of synthetic fibres (carbon and glass etc.) as composite reinforcements not only benefits the environment, but also provides economical lightweight products for transports.

Abaca fibre reinforced PP composites and comparison with jute and flax fibre PP composites

open access: yeseXPRESS Polymer Letters, 2007
Abaca fibre reinforced PP composites were fabricated with different fibre loadings (20, 30, 40, 50wt% and in some cases 35 and 45 wt%). Flax and jute fibre reinforced PP composites were also fabricated with 30 wt% fibre loading. The mechanical properties,

Phosphorylation of Milkweed Fibers With a Phosphate Ester: Effect on Fiber Properties and Optimization of Reaction Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
The phosphorylation of milkweed fibers using the phosphate ester/urea system was optimized. The impact of reaction temperature, duration, and phosphate ester ratio on the efficiency of phosphorylation was investigated using the design of experiments approach.
