Foliar dust as a reliable environmental monitor of heavy metal pollution in comparison to plant leaves and soil in urban areas.

Chemosphere, 2021
Pollution of atmospheric particulate matter carrying heavy metals has posed a great threat to various ecosystem compartments. Here, a total of 540 samples from four ecosystem compartments (plant leaves, foliar dust, surface soil, and subsoil) were ...

Rendering plant leaves faithfully

ACM SIGGRAPH 2003 Sketches & Applications, 2003
The light passes through these cells into the spongy layer of the leaf. The elliptical cells, which are interspersed with intercellular air spaces, cause internal scattering of the incident radiation and thereby distribute the light within the leaf. This process is important for an optimal absorption of the light by the leaf’s mesophyll.

From plant physiology to pharmacology: fusicoccin leaves the leaves

Planta, 2018
This review highlights 50 years of research on the fungal diterpene fusicoccin, during which the molecule went from a tool in plant physiology research to a pharmacological agent in treating animal diseases. Fusicoccin is a phytotoxic glycosylated diterpene produced by the fungus Phomopsis amygdali, a pathogen of almond and peach plants.

Polyphenols in edible plant leaves: an overview of their occurrence and health properties.

Food & Function
Edible plant leaves (EPLs) constitute a major renewable functional plant biomass available all year round, providing an essential source of polyphenols in the global diet. Polyphenols form a large family of antioxidant molecules. They protect against the

Increased phenylalanine levels in plant leaves reduces susceptibility to Botrytis cinerea.

Plant Science, 2020
Botrytis cinerea is a major plant pathogen, causing losses in crops during growth and storage. Here we show that increased accumulation of phenylalanine (Phe) and Phe-derived metabolites in plant leaves significantly reduces their susceptibility to B ...

Plant leaves icephobicity

Journal of Coatings Technology and Research, 2017
Ice adhesion and accumulation are well known to cause serious problems for different structures such as wind turbines, power transmission and distribution systems, and aircraft. Development of coatings that can resist icing can solve many challenges in various areas of industry.

Bumble bees damage plant leaves and accelerate flower production when pollen is scarce

Science, 2020
Bumble bee gardeners Bumble bees rely heavily on pollen resources for essential nutrients as they build their summer colonies. Therefore, we might expect that annual differences in the availability of these resources must simply be tolerated, but ...

Estimation of plant species by classifying plants and leaves in combination

Journal of Field Robotics, 2017
AbstractInformation on which weed species are present within agricultural fields is a prerequisite when using robots for site‐specific weed management. This study proposes a method of improving robustness in shape‐based classifying of seedlings toward natural shape variations within each plant species.
