Fast Hydrogel Micro‐Actuators Driven by Electric Fields
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.We report the fabrication of chemically programmable electroactuating microstructures through the first integration of two‐photon polymerization with electrically actuated gelatin methacrylate‐based hydrogels. By tailoring the charge of the polymer network, we demonstrate programmable polarity‐dependent bending, enabling microstructures that ...

Lilium floral fragrance: A biochemical and genetic resource for aroma and flavor [PDF]
Phytochemistry, 2016 Hybrid Lilium (common name lily) cultivars are among the top produced domestic fresh cut flowers and potted plants in the US today. Many hybrid Lilium cultivars produce large and showy flowers that emit copious amounts of volatile molecules, which can negatively affect a consumer's appreciation or limit use of the plant product.

Effects of flower patch additions and urbanisation on cavity‐nesting bees and wasps
Ecological Solutions and EvidenceCavity‐nesting bees and wasps provide essential ecosystem services such as pollination and pest control but can be negatively affected by urbanisation. Within urban environments, cavity‐nesting hymenopterans use greenspaces to forage for food and nesting

Mate choice and mate competition by a tropical hummingbird at a floral resource [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2010 The influence of male territorial and foraging behaviours on female choice has received little attention in studies of resource-defence mating systems even though such male behaviours are thought to affect variation in their territory quality and mating success.

The hummingbird community and their floral resources in an urban forest remnant in Brazil [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2011 The temporal and spatial resource use among hummingbirds was studied over 13 months in an urban forest remnant (Prosa State Park: PSP) in Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. Hummingbird visitation was recorded at three ornithophilous and eleven non-ornithophilous species.
