Plant-mediated effects in the Brassicaceae on the performance and behaviour of parasitoids

open access: yes, 2009
Direct and indirect plant defences are well studied, particularly in the Brassicaceae. Glucosinolates (GS) are secondary plant compounds characteristic in this plant family. They play an important role in defence against herbivores and pathogens.

Sub‐Diffraction Nanolithography of Halide Perovskite via Reversible All‐Optical Crystallization–Decomposition

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A reversible, all‐optical modulation strategy enables resist‐free, sub‐diffraction nanolithography of halide perovskite films. Leveraging 800 nm fs laser‐induced crystallization and 365 nm laser driven decomposition, reconfigurable patterning achieves feature sizes down to 93.5 nm. This chemistry‐free approach offers dynamic control over optoelectronic

Interaction between greenhouse grown chrysanthemum and Frankliniella occidentalis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Growers of floricultural crops are still dependent on chemical insecticides because of low consumer tolerance to damaged produce. More knowledge of natural interactions between insects and their host plants would allow insect pests to be controlled in a ...

Membrane Trafficking in Plant Immunity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Plants employ sophisticated mechanisms to interact with pathogenic as well as beneficial microbes. Of those, membrane trafficking is key in establishing a rapid and precise response.

An Ion‐Based Strategy Toward Synergistic Surface Functionalization Combining the Osteogenic Properties and NIR‐Mediated Antibacterial Activity of PEEK

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A multifunctional bioactive PEEK‐based implant (Mn@p/MBG‐SPEEK) is engineered to combat implant‐associated infections while promoting osteogenesis. The hybrid surface activates PI3K/Akt/mTOR and AP‐1 signaling pathways for osteogenic differentiation, while Mn coordination induces electronic coupling that narrows the HOMO‐LUMO energy gap and enhances ...

3D Printed Omniphobic Slippery Liquid Infused Porous Surfaces for Low Surface Tension Repellency

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A 3D printing strategy fabricates omniphobic slippery liquid‐infused porous structures with lubricant reservoirs and interconnected microchannels. A post‐printing surface treatment modifies the porous surface to ensure compatibility with the infused fluorinated lubricant.
