The dispersal of bacteria from leaf surfaces by water splash

open access: yes, 1991
Advances in the techniques of genetic engineering have made possible the use of genetically manipulated micro-organisms (GMOs) for the control of pests and diseases. Before GMOs can be widely used in agriculture, however, their fate after release must be

Self‐Seeded Nucleation of PET in a Benign Solvent Yields a High Modulus Aerogel With Ultra‐Low Thermal Conductivity

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A new benign solvent (1,3‐diphenylacetone) enables a simple, safe, and sustainable dissolution and gelation method to convert waste PET into low density, monolithic aerogels with high mechanical strength (E = 20 MPa) and remarkably low thermal conductivity (k = 21.9 to 28.9 mW/m·K).

Leaf relative water and proline content under drought stress.

open access: yes, 2019
A) Effect of drought stress on leaf relative water content (%). B) Leaf proline content (μg g-1 Fresh Weight of leaves) of teak plants under well-watered and water-stressed conditions (moderate and severe). Bars represent the standard deviations from the

Introducing terahertz technology into plant biology: A novel method to monitor changes in leaf water status

open access: yesJournal of Applied Botany and Food Quality, 2012
We present a novel, non-destructive method for determination of changes in leaf water content in the fi eld based on terahertz (THz) technology. In this method, terahertz waves, which are strongly absorbed by water, are generated and detected using a ...

SOME EFFECTS OF VIRUS INFECTION ON LEAF WATER CONTENTS OF NICOTIANA SPECIES

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, 1958
Infection with tobacco mosaic virus decreases the water content which detached tobacco leaves attain when kept for 20 hr. in conditions of minimum water stress, and does so more when the plants are kept in light before inoculation than when they are kept in darkness. No such effects of infection during the first day after inoculation were obtained with
