From wild to tamed: Reimagining novel crops through omics and local plant diversity

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The global food system faces growing pressure from climate change, biodiversity loss, and rising nutritional demands. Agriculture has increased yields but reduced crop diversity, flavor, and nutritional quality, leaving societies vulnerable and dependent on a narrow set of staple species.

Structural Ordering and Polarizable Al3+ Solvation Induced via Amphiphilic Zwitterion for Highly‐Reversible Zn–Al Alloy Anodes

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
An amphiphilic zwitterion of ZI‐10 is employed as an electrolyte additive to enhance the stability of Zn–Al alloy anodes, thereby constructing a dual‐layered electric double layer through the self‐assembly. The ZI‐10‐induced Al3+ solvation reduces charge transfer barriers, enabling over 2500 h of stable cycling and superior performance in full cells ...

Zincophilic Porous Carbon Interface with Dendrite‐Free Zinc Deposition via Selective Ion Regulation for Aqueous Zinc Ion Batteries

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A multifunctional zincophilic porous carbon (ZPC) layer is engineered as a protective layer for aqueous zinc‐ion batteries (AZIBs). The ZPC layer guides Zn2+ diffusion and desolvation through ion adsorption sites. Also, its polar functional groups enhance interfacial adhesion and redox activity.

Tailoring the Melting and Glass Transition Behavior of Zeolitic Imidazolate Frameworks via Ammonium Halide Salts

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Ammonium halide salts serve as inorganic modifiers that lower the melting and glass transition temperatures of zeolitic imidazolate frameworks, enabling centimeter‐scale hybrid glasses and melt processing of otherwise unmeltable ZIF‐8. In situ imaging and pair distribution function analysis reveal salt infiltration, Zn─N bond disruption, and Zn–halide ...
