Long-term field metal extraction by pelargonium:phytoextraction efficiency in relation to plant maturity [PDF]

, 2011
The long length of periods required for effective soil remediation via phytoextraction constitutes a weak point that reduces its industrial use. However, these calculated periods are mainly based on short-term and/or hydroponic controlled experiments ...

Airborne 1O2 Delivery via a Superhydrophobic Dressing as a Pathway to Next‐Generation Wound Therapies, an in Vivo Murine Burn Model Study

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of the SH bandage placed on an infected burn wound and its role in wound healing. A superhydrophobic PDMS membrane coated with the PS verteporfin is placed over the wound area and illuminated with a red laser at 690 nm, generating airborne 1O2 above the tissue.

Root exudates: the hidden part of plant defense

Trends in Plant Science, 2014
The significance of root exudates as belowground defense substances has long been underestimated, presumably due to being buried out of sight. Nevertheless, this chapter of root biology has been progressively addressed within the past decade through the characterization of novel constitutively secreted and inducible phytochemicals that directly repel ...

Unraveling microbial shifts and plant growth responses in Chrysanthemum ‘Merlino’ due to artificial root exudates in horticultural substrates

Frontiers in Horticulture
IntroductionPlant growth and health are significantly influenced by the composition, activity, and diversity of the rhizosphere microbiome. Developing strategies to modify the rhizosphere microbiome to foster beneficial interactions with plants therefore

In-Vivo Expression Profiling of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Infections Reveals Niche-Specific and Strain-Independent Transcriptional Programs [PDF]

, 2011
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a threatening, opportunistic pathogen causing disease in immunocompromised individuals. The hallmark of P. aeruginosa virulence is its multi-factorial and combinatorial nature.

The exudation of ice from stems of plants [PDF]

Journal of the Franklin Institute, 1914
Abstract This paper deals with the formation of ice fringes upon the Dittany (Cunila mariana). The data presented are based upon experiments and observations in the field and in the laboratory. It was observed that the ice fringes are formed when the temperature falls to freezing point (o° C., 32° F.); but they are not a function of the hoar-frost ...

Decomposer biomass in the rhizosphere to assess rhizodposition [PDF]

, 2007
Quantification of the organic carbon released from plant roots is a challenge. These compounds of rhizodeposition are quickly transformed into CO2 and eventually bacterial biomass to be consumed by bacterivores (protozoa and nematodes).
