Characterization of Natural Rubber Latex With High‐Sensitivity, Diffusion‐Ordered, and Time Domain NMR

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Suspending old certainties, NMR now hints at a constant linear polyisoprene core whose corona morphs with pH tight, multilamellar in acidic latex, loose and hydrated after ammonia. ABSTRACT How reliable is our century‐old understanding of natural‐rubber latex (NRL) when examined through the lens of modern analytical techniques, such as nuclear magnetic

Somatic Embryogenesis as Key Technology for Shaping the Rubber Tree of the Future

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Worldwide, Hevea producers face the need to replant large surfaces in the coming years. The rubber yield per ha, produced by trees grafted on heterogeneous illegitimate seedling rootstocks, has reached its maximum.

Aboveground and soil carbon in novel forest ecosystems in Singapore: A case study of abandoned plantation secondary forests

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Novel forest ecosystems consist of forest ecosystems dominated by non‐native tree species that are difficult to restore to their pre‐human disturbance states. Nevertheless, novel forests can provide numerous ecosystem services, such as carbon sequestration and storage.

The rootstock clones in rubber tree: a new varietal type toward the rejuvenated bi-clone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Cloning rubber rootstocks by microcutting will remove the genetic variability of the seedling rootstocks; Moreover, it will open the way to the breeding of rootstock clones regarding main challenges as the growth-vigor of the trees, the water stress ...

Genetic Diversity Strategy for the Management and Use of Rubber Genetic Resources: More than 1,000 Wild and Cultivated Accessions in a 100-Genotype Core Collection. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The rubber tree [Hevea brasiliensis (Willd. ex Adr. de Juss.) Muell. Arg.] is the only plant species worldwide that is cultivated for the commercial production of natural rubber. This study describes the genetic diversity of the Hevea spp.

Enhancing Hydrophobicity of EPR‐Based Rubber Compounds via Fumed Silica and Sulfur/Peroxide Curing Systems

open access: yesJournal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, EarlyView.
The Effect of Silica and Curing Systems on the Hydrophobicity of EPR‐Based Rubber Compounds. ABSTRACT In this study, the dual effect of fumed silica and conventional curing systems such as peroxide and sulfur on the hydrophobicity of ethylene‐propylene‐based rubber (EPR) compounds has been examined.

Contributions of in situ hybridization of sRNA to the study on spatio-temporal gene expression in Hevea brasiliensis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Since the dawn of the genomics era, much research has focused on functional studies of genes of interest. In situ hybridization is a method that can be used to precisely localize the expression of a gene in tissues and cells.

The targeted metabolomic profile of laticifers in rubber tree

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Targeted metabolomic profiling of rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) laticifers identified metabolites that were reprogramming by domestication, revealed active isoprenoid metabolism in the laticifers, and discovered loci with potential biosynthetic applications, supporting the potential of developing laticifers as bioreactors for production of valuable ...

Establishment of a cryopreservation process for long-term storage of embryogenic calli of Hevea brasiliensis (Müll. Arg.). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A reliable cryopreservation technique was developed for friable embryogenic callus lines of Hevea brasiliensis. The technique included a callus pre-culture on a maintenance medium containing 1 mM CaCl2 prior to cryopreservation to promote postthaw callus

Public Presentations of Plants: Colonial Legacies and Indigenous Perspectives in the Botanical Gardens of The Huntington

open access: yesMuseum Anthropology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In light of recent demands to diversify and decolonize museums, which have influenced curatorial practices the world over, this article examines how the botanical gardens of The Huntington in Southern California communicate colonial legacies of their plant collections to the visiting public.
