Agar‐Based Optical Sensing System With a Phosphorescent Grid Pattern for Measuring Stress Distributions of Root Growth Using the Sampling Moiré Method

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This paper presents an agar medium with a phosphorescent grid pattern that measures the stress distribution generated by growing plant roots. Using phosphorescence, the system optically separates the grid pattern from the root and extracts the grid deformation.

Root‐Stimulated Movements in Mimosa Pudica for Biohybrid Robotic Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that thermal and electrical stimulation of Mimosa pudica root induces movement of the petiole and pinnules without direct stimulation of the aerial organs, thereby enabling a plant‐based robotic gripper and providing a foundation for the development of intelligent and sustainable systems.

Effects of simulated drought by PEG-6000 on the germination of Hopea chinensis seeds under different temperature conditions

open access: yesGuangxi Zhiwu
Hopea chinensis is distributed in China and its seeds are typically reclacitrant. In order to investigate the germination adaptability of seeds to temperature and moisture, we carried out an experiment with three different constant temperatures (15, 20 ...

Spore germination and development of young mycelia in some Rhizopogon species

open access: yes, 2000
Spore germination in Rhizopogon abietis, R. luteolus, R. roseolus and R. villosulus was induced in the presence of Rhodotorula glutinis and activated charcoal, in agar medium (N6:5). In one R.

Targeting Lactate and Lactylation in Cancer Metabolism and Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Lactate, once deemed a metabolic waste, emerges as a central regulator of cancer progression. This review elucidates how lactate and its epigenetic derivative, protein lactylation, orchestrate tumor metabolism, immune suppression, and therapeutic resistance.

Effect of Mechanical, Chemical and Physical Scarification on the Germination of Brazil Nut Seeds (Bertholletia excelsa Bonpl.) in Peru [PDF]

open access: yesNature Environment and Pollution Technology
Bertholletia excelsa Bonpl. (Brazil nut) is an economically important species in the Amazon, whose natural seed production takes between 365 and 545 days and shows low germination rates.

Mechanostimulatory Cues Determine Intestinal Fibroblast Fate and Profibrotic Remodeling in a Physiodynamic Human Gut‐on‐a‐Chip

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A healthy gut barrier shields underlying fibroblasts from luminal shear forces, illustrating that “good fences make good neighbors.” Barrier damage exposes fibroblasts to shear stress, inducing cell death and the emergence of stress‐adapted, profibrotic fibroblasts. Sustained shear exposure promotes the formation of stiff aggregates of mechanoadapative

Germination responses of a dry sclerophyll forest soil-stored seedbank to fire related cues

open access: yes, 2013
Fire is an integral component of many ecosystems worldwide. Many plant species require fire-related cues, primarily heat and smoke, to trigger germination. Despite the importance of this process, the responses of many Australian species to these cues are
