Tree differences in primary and secondary growth drive convergent scaling in leaf area to sapwood area across Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
open28siTrees scale leaf (AL) and xylem (AX) areas to couple leaf transpiration and carbon gain with xylem water transport. Some species are known to acclimate in AL : AX balance in response to climate conditions, but whether trees of different species ...

Sugar‐Armored Pesticides: Self‐Assembled System for Enhanced Foliar Adhesion and Sustained Delivery of Hydrophobic Antimicrobials Against Bacterial Diseases

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops a sugar‐armored, self‐assembled pesticide delivery system that enhances foliar adhesion, provides sustained release, effectively disrupts biofilms, and demonstrates superior bactericidal activity for improved disease control.

A CLE11b‐CLE16 Signaling Relay Mediates Root‐Shoot‐Root Crosstalk for Drought Adaptation in Common Bean

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel root‐shoot‐root signaling relay, mediated by CLE peptides, coordinates drought adaptation in common bean. Root‐derived PvCLE11b translocates acropetally to leaves, inducing PvCLE16 expression via PvTCP10. Leaf‐accumulated PvCLE16 triggers stomatal closure and translocates basipetally to modulate root architecture.
