Water relations of cucumber, tomato, and sweet pepper [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
The ever increasing importance of water as a critical resource for agricultural production has encouraged more research on water relations in recent years.

Nutrient/TOR signaling controls adipose mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) to regulate organismal growth in Drosophila

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

Obtaining Spatial Variations in Cabernet Sauvignon (Vitis vinifera L.) Wine Flavonoid Composition and Aromatic Profiles by Studying Long-Term Plant Water Status in Hyper-Arid Seasons

open access: yesHorticulturae
The spatial variability in vineyard soil might negatively affect wine composition, leading to inhomogeneous flavonoid composition and aromatic profiles.

Measurement of Energy Status of Water in Plants With a Thermocouple Psychrometer [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1962
The thermocouple psychrometer developed by Richards and Ogata (1) measures the relative vapor pressure of water in air near saturation with great precision. Measurement depends on a temperature difference between wet and dry junctions of a sensitive thermocouple. Richards and Ogata (2) used the thermocouple psychrometer to measure the relative pressure

The microbiome in human skin aging

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐related skin changes encompass the well‐known visible phenotypic alterations, together with microbiome dysbiosis and a series of molecular aging hallmarks. These hallmarks characterize not only a fully stablished aged phenotype but also the skin aging process itself.

High Levels of Shading as A Sustainable Application for Mitigating Drought, in Modern Apple Production

open access: yesAgronomy, 2021
The sustainability of reducing light in apple orchards under well-watered (ww) and water stress (ws) conditions was evaluated for water relations, plant gas exchanges, fruit growth, yield determinants, and fruit quality over three years.

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...

Development of Optical and Electrical Sensors for Non-Invasive Monitoring of Plant Water Status

open access: yesJournal of Sensor and Actuator Networks
Monitoring plant water status is vital for optimizing irrigation in precision agriculture. This study explores the use of two simple, affordable, and non-invasive sensor systems, electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and infrared (IR) spectroscopy, to ...

Aquaporins and the control of the water status in coffee plants [PDF]

open access: yesTheoretical and Experimental Plant Physiology, 2013
Six aquaporin (AQP) homologues were identified in three coffee species (Coffea arabica, C. Canephora, and C. racemosa), including four plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIP1;1, PIP1;2, PIP2;1, and PIP2;2) and two tonoplast intrinsic proteins (TIP1;1 and TIP1;2). In order to better understand the role of these genes in coffee, C.
