Plant Robotics for Sustainable and Environmentally Friendly Robots: Insights from Actuation Characteristics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Plants are promising materials for building sustainable and eco‐friendly robots due to their inherent multifunctionality, with actuation playing a crucial role. This article focuses on the physical movements of plants and, from the perspective of actuation characteristics, explores representative plant species and their behaviors, the current state of ...

Identification of Chili leaf curl virus Causing Leaf Curl Disease of Petunia in Oman

open access: yesPlant Disease, 2014
Petunias (Petunia × hybrida) are the most important ornamental plants in Oman. In 2012, petunias were observed in public parks and airport landscape in Dhofar region with symptoms of upward leaf curling, yellowing and vein clearing, and size reduction in leaves.

Autopolyploidization‐Induced Chromatin Remodeling Regulates Leaf Size Variation in Brassica rapa

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that monoploid, diploid, and autotetraploid Brassica rapa lines derived from the same genome exhibit distinct leaf morphology. Ploidy changes remodel chromatin accessibility and histone modifications to regulate gene expression, while key transcription factors BrGRF13 and BrARF11 control leaf size and polarity, driving ...

Natural recombination between Tomato yellow leaf curl virus-Is and Tomato leaf curl virus

open access: yesJournal of General Virology, 2000
The complete genome sequences (2791 and 2793 nt) of isolates ofTomato yellow leaf curl virus-Is (TYLCV-Is) from Spain (SP72/97) and Portugal (Port2/95) were determined. These isolates are closely related to TYLCV-Is isolates reported in Japan (Japan-A and Japan-S) and Israel (Israel/Mild).

Probing the Impact of Vacancy Diffusion on Void Dynamics at the Lithium Metal–Solid Electrolyte Interface

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Understanding void formation at the lithium(Li) metal–solid electrolyte (SE) interface is crucial to improving interfacial stability in solid‐state batteries(SSBs). In this work, the competing electrochemical interactions, including surface diffusion modes are studied in dictating interface evolution during electro‐dissolution.

Dead Matter, Living Machines: Repurposing Crustaceans' Abdomen Exoskeleton for Bio‐Hybrid Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Crustacean exoskeletons, repurposed from food waste, are engineered into sustainable bending actuators combining biotic structure with synthetic control. The augmented exoskeletons achieve rapid and robust motion with lightweight body and can be used as part of robotic manipulators, grippers and swimmers.

Mise au point de deux tests PCR multiplexes pour détecter simultanément des formes recombinantes et non-recombinantes du Tomato yellow leaf curl virus au Maroc [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Le Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV, genre Begomvirus, famille Geminiviridae) a été isolé pour la première fois au Maroc en 1998 (Peterschmitt et al., 1999) et le Tomato yellow leaf curl Sardinia virus (TYLCSV) en 1999 (Monci et al., 2000).

Biomimetic Adaptive Hydrothermal Balance Fabric‐Based Dual‐Interface Solar Evaporator for Efficient and Stable Desalination

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study combines the biological structure of octopuses with the “3D structure” of spacer fabrics to fabricate a dual‐interface solar evaporator with adaptive hydrothermal balance. Water adaptation is achieved through the differentiated design of the upper and lower layers, and dynamic hydrothermal balance is realized by dynamically regulating the ...
