The effect of drought stress on physiological responses of maize plants originating from seeds of different ages [PDF]
Drought is one of the main consequences of climate change that negatively affects plant growth and development, which in turn leads to a reduction in yield.

Diurnal variations in water relations of deficit irrigated lemon trees during fruit growth period
Field-grown lemon trees (Citrus limon (L.) Burm. fil. cv. Fino) were subjected to different drip irrigation treatments: a control treatment, irrigated daily above crop water requirements in order to obtain non-limiting soil water conditions and two ...

Mechanically Programmable DNA Hydrogel Microparticles for 3D Cellular Systems
DNA hydrogel microparticles are designed to exhibit controllable viscoelasticity and stiffness across three orders of magnitude from 30Pa$30 \,\mathrm{Pa}$ to 6.5kPa$6.5 \,\mathrm{kPa}$. They are uptaken into fibroblast spheroids where they are actively remodeled by cellular forces depending on their mechanical properties.

Theobroma cacao, one of Colombia’s most socially significant crops, faces productivity challenges due to drought. This stress can reduce growth, leaf area, and stomatal conductance (Ks) and generate reactive oxygen species. Therefore, exploring solutions

Measuring Arabidopsis, Tomato and Barley Leaf Relative Water Content (RWC)
Measuring leaf relative water content (RWC) is a reliable and simple way to assess the water status of a leaf without any need for special equipment. Similar to leaf water potential, leaf RWC gives a strong indication of the plant’s response to different

Leaf Enlargement and Metabolic Rates in Corn, Soybean, and Sunflower at Various Leaf Water Potentials [PDF]
Rates of photosynthesis, dark respiration, and leaf enlargement were studied in soil-grown corn (Zea mays), soybean (Glycine max), and sunflower (Helianthus annuus) plants at various leaf water potentials. As leaf water potentials decreased, leaf enlargement was inhibited earlier and more severely than photosynthesis or respiration.

Polymorph‐Specific Electronic Transduction in WO3 during Molecular Sensing
Metal‐oxide polymorphs with similar surface chemistry can nevertheless exhibit distinct sensing properties. In γ‐ and ε‐WO3, analyte adsorption appears comparable; yet, only ε‐WO3 induces a pronounced lattice electronic perturbation that accommodates charge in sub‐conduction band minimum states.

Measuring leaf-water potential in chickpea with a pressure chamber [PDF]
The pressure-chamber technique has been used for the first time to measure leaf-water potentials in chickpea under field conditions. Available soil-water contents at different depths for irrigated and non-irrigated crops are presented along with the ...
