Melanin content directly controls fungal spore mechanical properties, with pigmented spores achieving rupture forces two orders of magnitude higher than hyaline spores. Environmental stress drives this quantity‐quality tradeoff; stressed species invest energy in melanin‐reinforced, mechanically superior thick‐walled, super‐hydrophobic spores, while ...

The use of biochar for reducing carbon footprints in land-use systems: prospects and problems
Biochar, a carbonaceous solid material obtained from the pyrolysis of biomass, has received considerable research attention because of its unique properties and potential to improve crop yields and soil carbon (C) sequestration while reducing ...

The challenging task of correctly estimating the body size of prehistoric hominins from footprint dimensions has been a matter of long debate, but researchers are still divided about the best methodological approach for obtaining compelling estimates ...

Hydrophilic PEO‐copolymers and hydrophobic PDMS are physically integrated via a compatibilizing solvent into an amphipathic dual‐polymer network with versatile interfacial affinity and completely amorphized PEO segments for hyper‐permeable CO2 transport.

This study presents a magneto‐mechanical strategy that incorporates FP@MSCs into an aligned PCL/GelMA nerve guidance conduit. Magnetic stimulation increases membrane tension in FP@MSCs, triggering cytoskeletal remodeling, Schwann cell‐like differentiation, and TIMP1 secretion. TIMP1 activates ITGB1/CD63–FAK signaling in NE‐4C cells, increasing membrane

Why carbon footprinting (and carbon labelling) only tells half the story [PDF]
The UK is a world leader in the use of carbon footprints. The introduction of PAS2050 has legitimised carbon footprinting and manufacturers and retailers have responded by estimating carbon footprints for selected products.

Baseline and business-as-usual (BAU) agricultural footprints for major farm types across England
Recent June Agricultural Census (2016) data at EU WFD waterbody scale were integrated with UKCP18 baseline rainfall (1981-2010) and NatMap 1000 soil data to generate representative model farms for 90 Water Management Catchments (WMCs) across England. For

Phylogenetic footprints are short pieces of noncoding DNA sequence in the vicinity of a gene that are conserved between evolutionary distant species. A seemingly simple problem is to sort footprints in their order along the genomes. It is complicated by the fact that not all footprints are collinear: they may cross each other.
