Effects of Environmental Factors on Seed Germination and Emergence of Velvetleaf (Abutilon theophrasti) [PDF]

open access: yesPlanta Daninha, 2018
: Velvetleaf, an annual broadleaf weed, is a common and troublesome weed of cropping systems worldwide. Laboratory and field experiments were conducted to determine the effects of environmental factors on germination and emergence of velvetleaf.

Planar Solid‐State Nanopores Toward Scalable Nanofluidic Integration Based on CMOS Technology

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
We present a scalable silicon‐based fabrication strategy for planar solid‐state nanopores to enable their integration with complex nanofluidic systems. Prototype devices demonstrate normal voltage‐current characteristics, good noise performance, and appreciable streaming currents. Our CMOS‐compatible fabrication process offers precise geometric control

Screening of tall fescue genotypes for relative water content and osmotic potential under drought stress

open access: yesGrassland Research, 2022
Background Tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) is an important cool‐season perennial grass. Its persistence and forage yield can be severely affected by drought stresses during the hot, dry summers of the southern USA.

Symbolic Regression and Multi‐Objective Optimization of the Flory–Huggins Interaction Parameter for Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
We develop a data‐driven method to derive the mathematical expressions of the Flory–Huggins interaction parameter χ for the swelling behavior of temperature–responsive hydrogels. Starting from initial assumptions of χ, our workflow combines Bayesian optimization, Flory–Rehner theory, and symbolic regression to generate candidate χ expressions.

Response mechanisms of Brachiaria brizantha cultivars to water deficit stress

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2013
Two cultivars of Brachiaria brizantha (Hochst ex. A. Rich) Stapf. (Syn. Urochloa) were evaluated for their adaptation to water deficit and the stress response mechanisms in a greenhouse experiment.

Glycinebetaine Enhances Osmotic Adjustment of Ryegrass under Cold Temperatures

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
Perennial (Lolium perenne L.) and annual (L. multiflorum) ryegrass are important species for landscape (e.g., turf) and agricultural (e.g., pasture systems) uses. Abiotic stresses limit the survival, growth, and/or appearance of these species.

Metabolomics demonstrates divergent responses of two Eucalyptus species to water stress

open access: yes, 2011
Past studies of water stress in Eucalyptus spp. generally highlighted the role of fewer than five “important” metabolites, whereas recent metabolomic studies on other genera have shown tens of compounds are affected.

Polyethylene glycol-b-polylactic acid polymersome elongation through osmotic pressure mediated membrane tension and fusion

open access: yes, 2022
Polyethylene glycol-b-polylactic acid (PEGPLA) polymersomes elongate under osmotic pressure. Hypertonic NaCl solutions statistically increased the zeta potential from negative to neutral.
