Functional magnetic resonance microscopy of long- and short-distance water transport in trees

, 2009
Due to their long life span, changing climatic conditions are of particular importance for trees. Climate changes will affect the water balance, which can become an important limiting factor for photosynthesis and growth. Long-distance water transport in

Self‐Assembled Conjugated Hollow Fibers for Spongy Monoliths Toward Solar‐Driven Desalination and Hydrovoltaic Electricity Generation

Small, EarlyView.
A self‐assembled conjugated hollow fiber monolith enables simultaneous solar‐driven desalination and hydrovoltaic electricity generation. Metal‐free polymerization produces cross‐linked hollow fibers that entangle into a porous monolith, followed by gradient polypyrrole coating for efficient light absorption and directional water transport.

Unveiling the phloem: a battleground for plant pathogens

Phytopathology Research
Phloem is the primary conduit for transporting photosynthates and signaling molecules in plants, facilitating communication between various plant organs.

Leaf C:P ratio as a universal indicator of photosynthesis in subtropical woody species: Stoichiometric thresholds and metabolic trade‐offs

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The stoichiometric ratios of carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) serve as important indicators for assessing nutrient balance in forest ecosystems, but their relationships with photosynthetic dynamics require deeper characterization.

Complex multitrophic species interactions and fitness costs: Intricate consequences of jasmonate and salicylate induced plant defences

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study reveals how long‐term activation of jasmonic and salicylic acid signalling reshapes arthropod communities and plant fitness across seasons. By showing that induced defences generate contrasting outcomes and cascading trade‐offs across trophic levels, it challenges the assumption that induced resistance is uniformly beneficial in natural ...

Transport of resistance - Inducing sterols in phloem sap of barley

, 2000
After root application of [7 alpha-H-3] -7 beta -hydroxysitosterol and [3 alpha ,6 beta-H-3(2)]-6 alpha -hydroxylathosterol these sterols could be detected in the leaves and phloem sap feeding aphids.

The social life of money for children

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
Abstract Inspired by Nigel Dodd's The Social Life of Money, this article proposes an analysis of entangled economic lives, that is, how meaning, structures and politics jointly shape the flow of monies within households. The past decades have marked a shift from “childrearing expenditures” to “parenting investments” that align with new visions of both ...
