A novel experimental platform to monitor solid/water interfaces under freeze–thaw cycles

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract We design and implement an original experimental platform resting on Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) to capture nanoscale insights into key characteristics of solid/water interfaces subject to freeze–thaw conditions. The work is motivated by the observation that freezing and thawing underpin a variety of processes in the context of, e.g ...

Petrography and mineral chemistry of Northeast Africa 053—A remnant of Martian crystal mush

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract In Earth's igneous systems, crystal mushes, crystal‐rich frameworks permeated by silicate melt, represent a common and fundamental stage in the evolution of magma bodies. However, whether crystal mushes occur within Martian igneous systems and play a comparable role is unknown. Here, we present a comprehensive petrography and mineral chemistry

Invasive plants optimize leaf nitrogen allocation in photosynthesis

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Invasive plants often outcompete co‐occurring native species by expressing acquisitive functional traits that promote high photosynthetic capacity. However, it remains unclear whether these traits are newly evolved in the introduced (‘away’) range or if invaders arrived preadapted with superior traits from their native (‘home’) range.

Arabidopsis acclimation to daily environmental fluctuations converts a defense response regulator into a susceptibility factor toward Sclerotinia

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Acclimation enables plants to adjust to immediate environmental fluctuations and is therefore key to the resilience of plant disease resistance in a time of climate change. Here, we report on the acclimation of Arabidopsis thaliana quantitative immune responses against the fungal pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum to daily environmental ...

Legacies from early‐season hot drought: how growth cessation alters tree water dynamics and modifies stress responses in Scots pine

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Early‐season hot drought in Scots pine limits growth and productivity but improves resilience to late‐season drought through reduced water use. Abstract Tree responses to drought are well studied, but the interacting effects of drought timing on growth, water use, and stress legacy are less understood.
