Fundamentals, Advances, and Applications of Electrospun Nanofibrous 3D Materials

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 43, November 15, 2026.
Three‐dimensional electrospun nanofibrous systems offer unique properties and microenvironments. These properties are determined by the fabrication strategies employed and can be adjusted by the incorporation of functional additives to achieve multifunctionality for specific applications. The applications range from the biomedical to the environmental,

Optimizing light spectra for soybean cultivation in controlled environments: Effects on plant growth, flowering, seed production, and seed quality

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 3, November 2026.
Cultivating soybean in a controlled environment enables precise control of growth conditions to accelerate breeding and enhance desirable traits. This study tested four LED spectra on two soybean varieties (CZ 75 70LL and S16‐14801C). The 40B:40R:20FR spectrum increased seed number by over 10% and seed weight by 20%, while both 50B:50R and 40B:40R:20FR
