Introduction of Exogenous Glycolate Catabolic Pathway Can Strongly Enhances Photosynthesis and Biomass Yield of Cucumber Grown in a Low-CO2 Environment

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is very important for photosynthesis of green plants. CO2 concentration in the atmosphere is relatively stable, but it drops sharply after sunrise due to the tightness of the greenhouse and the absorption of CO2 by vegetable crops ...

The Plant‐to‐Plant Circular Strategy: Coupling Photodegradation and Phytoremediation With Plant‐Based Nanomaterials for Plastic Degradation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Plant‐based nanomaterials derived from alfalfa serve as dual‐function catalysts, coupling photodegradation and phytoremediation to degrade polyethylene under UV‐A light and in soil. The nanomaterials work synergistically with alfalfa and soil microbes, achieving efficient plastic breakdown without trophic transfer.
