Possible roles of mechanical cell elimination intrinsic to growing tissues from the perspective of tissue growth efficiency and homeostasis. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2017 Cell competition is a phenomenon originally described as the competition between cell populations with different genetic backgrounds; losing cells with lower fitness are eliminated.

Predicting Fv/Fm and evaluating cotton drought tolerance using hyperspectral and 1D-CNN
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 The chlorophyll fluorescence parameter Fv/Fm is significant in abiotic plant stress. Current acquisition methods must deal with the dark adaptation of plants, which cannot achieve rapid, real-time, and high-throughput measurements.

Systems biology and mechanics of growth [PDF]
WIREs Systems Biology and Medicine, 2015 In contrast to inert systems, living biological systems have the advantage to adapt to their environment through growth and evolution. This transfiguration is evident during embryonic development, when the predisposed need to grow allows form to follow function.

Mechanisms of growth cone repulsion [PDF]
F1000 Biology Reports, 2010 Research conducted in the last century suggested that chemoattractants guide cells or their processes to appropriate locations during development. Today, we know that many of the molecules involved in cellular guidance can act as chemorepellents that prevent migration into inappropriate territories. Here, we review some of the early seminal experiments

Evolution of Meniscal Biomechanical Properties with Growth: An Experimental and Numerical Study
Bioengineering, 2021 The menisci of the knee are complex fibro-cartilaginous tissues that play important roles in load bearing, shock absorption, joint lubrication, and stabilization.

A Geometric Theory of Growth Mechanics [PDF]
Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2010 In this paper we formulate a geometric theory of the mechanics of growing solids. Bulk growth is modeled by a material manifold with an evolving metric. Time dependence of metric represents the evolution of the stress-free (natural) configuration of the body in response to changes in mass density and "shape".

Platonic Relationships in Metal Phosphonate Chemistry: Ionic Metal Phosphonates
Crystals, 2019 Phosphonate ligands demonstrate strong affinity for metal ions. However, there are several cases where the phosphonate is found non-coordinated to the metal ion.

Mechanical Stress Induces Remodeling of Vascular Networks in Growing Leaves. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2016 Differentiation into well-defined patterns and tissue growth are recognized as key processes in organismal development. However, it is unclear whether patterns are passively, homogeneously dilated by growth or whether they remodel during tissue expansion.
