Adaptive Responses of Tropical Crops: A Multi‐Scale Omics Integrated Perspective
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Tropical crops integrate genomic, morphological, physiological, and ecological adaptations to thrive under extreme and variable environments. This review highlights how natural selection, domestication, and breeding shape stress resilience, resource‐use strategies, and productivity in sugarcane, banana, cassava, rubber and oil palm, offering new routes

Maximizing the Energy Output of Soft Electrohydraulic Generators
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Many energy resources cannot be viably harvested with electromagnetic generators. This article evaluates the potential of soft electrohydraulic generators as an alternative approach for energy capture. An analytical model charts their operational limits and a rigorous experimental study results in new performance benchmarks with maximum specific energy

Bistable Networks Enable Complex Shape Changes
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Transition‐controlled metamaterials are networks of bistable mechanical memory that store local binary states and express them as global shape change. By decoupling low‐force programming from high‐force holding, a single lattice is reconfigured into distinct 2D profiles and 3D surfaces without continuous actuation, enabling reusable morphing materials ...

Self‐Assembly of Organic–Inorganic Copolymers Toward Bio‐Inspired Cementitious Composites
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Organic–inorganic copolymerization of calcium silicate hydrate and thioctic acid produces a self‐organized nanocomposite inspired by the disordered collagen–mineral architecture of trabecular bone. The resulting material combines a compressive strength above 300 MPa with intrinsic physical reprocessibility, retaining over 80% of its strength and energy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A transpiration‐inspired Janus nanofiber membrane creates a persistent dry‐wet interface that couples localized solar heating with hydration‐induced ion regulation. The asymmetric architecture sustains directional water and ion transport, suppresses salt accumulation, and enables simultaneous seawater evaporation and stable electricity generation ...
