Detergent induced pollen sterility in some vegetable crops

open access: yesInternational Journal of Horticultural Science, 2005
Efficacy of a popular synthetic detergent, Surf excel in some important vegetable crops viz. Okra or lady finger (Abelmoschus esculentus L.), chilli or red pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) and tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) was evaluated for inducing ...

AI–Guided 4D Printing of Carnivorous Plants–Inspired Microneedles for Accelerated Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents an artificial intelligence (AI)‐guided 4D‐printed microneedle platform inspired by carnivorous plants for wound healing. A thermo‐responsive shape memory polymer enables body temperature–triggered self‐coiling for autonomous wound closure.

Ultra‐High‐Throughput Discovery of Multifunctional Polyphenolic Coatings on Droplet Microarrays

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An ultra‐high‐throughput (UHT) combinatorial strategy enables the miniaturized synthesis and screening of ≈30 000 polyamine‐polyphenolic (PaPp) coatings using droplet microarrays (DMA). This approach reveals hundreds of previously unknown fluorescent, redox‐active, and antibacterial materials, including multifunctional, cell‐compatible surfaces ...

A 3D‐Printed Blister Test Platform for Quantifying Biointerface Adhesion Mechanisms

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printed blister platform enables energy‐resolved characterization of soft hydrogel–rigid interfaces. Integrating precision pressure control with hyperelastic modeling directly quantifies adhesion energy (G) and R‐curve toughening. Results reveal that modulating hydrogel concentration and surface roughness drives a tunable transition from cohesive ...

Accelerated evolution of the Prdm9 speciation gene across diverse metazoan taxa.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2009
The onset of prezygotic and postzygotic barriers to gene flow between populations is a hallmark of speciation. One of the earliest postzygotic isolating barriers to arise between incipient species is the sterility of the heterogametic sex in interspecies'

Comparative study on cytogenetics and transcriptome between diploid and autotetraploid rice hybrids harboring double neutral genes.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Double pollen fertility neutral genes, San and Sbn, can control pollen sterility in intersubspecific (indica × japonica) rice hybrids, which has excellent potential to increase rice yield.

An Injectable Electroactive Hydrogel Engineered for Stable Bioelectronic Interfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Injectable electroconductive hydrogels enable soft, conformal, and stable bioelectronic interfaces for electroceutical therapies. A catechol‐modified hyaluronic acid/alginate/edge‐functionalized graphene platform combines wet adhesion, shear‐thinning injectability, tissue‐matched mechanics, and electrochemical functionality.

Endogenous tassel-specific small RNAs-mediated RNA interference enables a novel glyphosate-inducible male sterility system for commercial production of hybrid seed in Zea mays L.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Hybrid crops produce higher yields than their inbred parents due to heterosis. For high purity of hybrid seeds, it is critical to eliminate self-pollination.

Haldne's rule and mechanisms of hybrid female sterility in birds

open access: yes, 2017
Hybrid sterility is one of the mechanisms of intrinsic postzygotic reproduction barriers between species and plays a key role in the process of speciation, which is emergence of new species.

Characterization of the Hstx1 and Hstx2 hybrid sterility candidate genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Speciation, the formation of new species, is an essential evolutionary process that causes species diversity on the Earth. At the beginning of this process is the separation of two populations by a reproductive barrier that prevents gene flow between ...
