Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Selective methanol sensors are achieved by coating carbon nanotube chemiresistors with two dimensional conductive metal–organic frameworks that incorporate intra‐pore clusters. These confined clusters increase the density of adsorption sites while restricting the transport of larger interfering molecules, particularly ethanol. This sensing architecture

Kin recognition in the largely solitary bee, manuelia postica (Apidae: Xylocopinae) [PDF]
, 2010 The recognition of conspecifics is a central issue to social behaviour. In eusocial hymenopterans, kin recognition has been clearly demonstrated. Manuelia postica is a largely solitary bee species in which larvae develop inside individual cells within a ...

Tailoring Phonon‐Driven Responses in α‐MoO3 through Isotopic Enrichment
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The implementation of polaritonic materials into nanoscale devices requires selective tuning of parameters to realize desired spectral or thermal responses. One robust material, α‐MoO3, an orthorhombic crystal boasting three distinct phonon dispersions, provides three polaritonic dispersions of hyperbolic phonon polaritons (HPhPs) across the ...

Genetics of survival in cannibalistic laying hens: The contribution of social effects
, 2009 Mortality due to cannibalism in laying hens is a worldwide economic and welfare problem occurring in all types of commercial poultry housing systems. Due to prohibition of beak-trimming and the traditional battery system in the European Union in the near

A Family of Sodium Solid‐State Electrolytes Based on the NaGaxAl1‐xCl4 Solid Solution
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sodium‐based metal chloride solid electrolytes are promising for sodium solid‐state batteries due to their excellent oxidation stability, which, as shown for Li halides, can coexist with high ionic conductivity. To explore cationic substitution effects, we synthesized NaGaxAl1‐xCl4 (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) via ball milling and investigated structural and ...

Evolution of sensitivity to warning cues from kin in plants with a structured population
Ecology and EvolutionPlants exchange a variety of information intra‐ and interspecifically by using various mediating cues. For example, plant individuals that are injured by herbivores release volatile chemicals, which induce receiver plants to express anti‐herbivore ...

Evolutionary Applications, 2019 Accumulating evidence indicates that plants are capable of self/non‐self and kin/stranger discrimination. Plants increase biomass of and resource allocation to roots when they encounter roots of conspecific non‐self‐neighbors, but not when they encounter
