Surface hydration‐induced damage in tight oil‐bearing sandy conglomerate reservoirs
A series of techniques such as X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy‐dispersive spectroscopy, conductivity tests, and infrared thermal imaging were used. The key findings are the identification of a two‐stage surface hydration process and the elucidation of the effects of various minerals and elements on the hydration process ...

Drought impacts on phloem transport
Drought impacts on phloem transport have attracted attention only recently, despite the well-established, and empirically verified theories on drought impacts on water transport in plants in general. This is because studying phloem transport is challenging. Phloem tissue is relatively small and delicate, and it has often been assumed not to be impacted

Monitoring Phloem Unloading and Post-Phloem Transport by Microperfusion of Attached Wheat Grains [PDF]
Phloem unloading and post-phloem transport in developing wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grains were investigated by perfusing the endosperm cavities of attached grains. Relative unloading ratio (RUR) and the rate of sucrose release into the endosperm cavity (SRR) were calculated, respectively, from 14C import and from sucrose washout from the cavity. RUR

Influence of Nanomaterials and Nanocomposites on the Nutrient Composition
Nanomaterials and nanocomposites enhance crop nutrition and food quality by improving nutrient availability, plant uptake, and bioavailability through controlled delivery and nano‐encapsulation. Their applications in agriculture and food systems enable sustainable biofortification, improved preservation, and functional foods, while emphasizing safety ...

AmSUT1, a Sucrose Transporter in Collection and Transport Phloem of the Putative Symplastic Phloem LoaderAlonsoa meridionalis [PDF]
AbstractA sucrose (Suc) transporter cDNA has been cloned from Alonsoa meridionalis, a member of the Scrophulariaceae. This plant species has an open minor vein configuration and translocates mainly raffinose and stachyose in addition to Suc in the phloem (C. Knop, O. Voitsekhovskaja, G. Lohaus [2001] Planta 213: 80–91).

Borax Promotes Fertility of Brassica napus Better Than Other Boron Species at Suboptimal Supply
ABSTRACT Background Continuous and sufficient boron (B) supply is essential for achieving maximum yield in Brassica napus. Increasing incidences of environmental water limitation are linked to reduced plant B availability and increased B deficiencies.

ABSTRACT Background Marginal water sources, such as wastewater, have been proposed as the basis for hydroponic nutrient solutions to improve the resource efficiency of greenhouse‐based tomato production. Such water sources are often low in plant‐available nutrient concentrations, and uptake and use efficiency of these nutrients may vary widely among ...

Phloem Catastrophe: Using Bifurcation Analysis to Predict Plant Tipping Points
A mathematical framework is developed to analyze phloem failure in plants using bifurcation analysis and catastrophe theory. The framework balances sucrose production from leaf photosynthesis modeled using stomatal optimality theory with sucrose ...
