Linking Superoxide Production and Scavenging in Plant Development

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 2048-2068, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Due to their strong oxidizing potential, rapid membrane permeability, and high reactivity, reactive oxygen species (ROS) play essential roles in plant development and stress responses. Superoxide (O2•‐) is a primary product of molecular oxygen reduction and a crucial source of hydrogen peroxide, representing a ROS species of substantial ...

Selective gas detection using Mn3O4/WO3 composites as a sensing layer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Pure WO3 sensors and Mn3O4/WO3 composite sensors with different Mn concentrations (1 atom %, 3 atom % and 5 atom %) were successfully prepared through a facile hydrothermal method.

In vivo super-resolution imaging of transient retinal phototropism evoked by oblique light stimulation.

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Optics, 2018
Rod-dominated transient retinal phototropism (TRP) has been observed in freshly isolated retinas, promising a noninvasive biomarker for objective assessment of retinal physiology.

OsAux1 is required for nutritropism in rice roots

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 125, Issue 5, March 2026.
SUMMARY Nutritropism is a directional root growth response to nutrient gradients, and rice (Oryza sativa L.) roots show nutritropism toward sources containing ammonium. Here, we report characterization of an EMS‐mutagenized rice plant that shows a complete defect in nutritropism.

The Effects of Water Stress and Apical Auxin Receptor Coverage on Phototropism in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Arabidopsis thaliana was first grown in the environmental chamber. The water tray and soil were kept moist for all plants as seedlings. They were kept in16 hours light and 8 hours of dark condition until they developed 4 true leaves.

Inorganic Phototropism in Electrodeposition of Se-Te.

open access: yesJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2019
Photoelectrochemical deposition of Se-Te on isolated Au islands using an unstructured, incoherent beam of light produces growth of Se-Te alloy towards the direction of the incident light beam.

Photo‐Switching Thermal and Lithium‐Ion Conductivity in Azobenzene Polymers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 17, 26 February 2026.
Light‐responsive azobenzene polymers control thermal and ionic transport simultaneously through structural transitions. UV illumination disrupts π–π stacking, converting crystalline trans states to amorphous cis configurations. Thermal conductivity drops from 0.45 to 0.15 W·m−1·K−1 while Li+ diffusivity increases 100 fold. This dual transport switching

Gradients of Aliveness and Engineering: A Taxonomy of Fungal Engineered Living Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 5, 22 January 2026.
This paper explores the potential of fungal engineered living materials (ELMs), examining fungal biology and growth mechanisms, which underpin their development. It presents a classification framework based on aliveness, scaffold composition, and engineering degree. Unique properties such as self‐healing, biosensing, and bioremediation are highlighted,

Light as Stress Factor to Plant Roots – Case of Root Halotropism

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Despite growing underground, largely in darkness, roots emerge to be very sensitive to light. Recently, several important papers have been published which reveal that plant roots not only express all known light receptors but also that their growth ...
