As‐spun carbon materials produced from Lignosulfonate, gelatin, and alginate, selected for water solubility, and ability to produce templated sustainable carbon nanostructures. Gelatin and alginate are sacrificial during thermal processing, allowing the production of engineered high surface area nanostructures, which are further characterized for ...

On the taxonomic resolution of pollen and spore records of Earth’s vegetation [PDF]
Premise of research. Pollen and spores (sporomorphs) are a valuable record of plant life and have provided information on subjects ranging from the nature and timing of evolutionary events to the relationship between vegetation and climate.

Mitochondrial Dynamics for Pollen Development
Mitochondria are active organelles that move rapidly, change shape, and undergo repeated fusion and fission ([Frederick and Shaw, 2007][1]; [Tilokani et al., 2018][2]). Since mitochondria have many important roles, including respiratory energy production through the tricarboxylic acid cycle ...

The arabidopsis COX11 homolog is essential for cytochrome c oxidase activity [PDF]
Members of the ubiquitous COX11 (cytochrome c oxidase 11) protein family are involved in copper delivery to the COX complex. In this work, we characterize the Arabidopsis thaliana COX11 homolog (encoded by locus At1g02410).

Comparative Pollen Development in Dioscoreales [PDF]
Pollen and orbicule ontogeny in representatives of three genera of Dioscoreales—Narthecium ossifragum Huds. (Nartheciaceae), Tacca artocarpifolia Seem. and Tacca chantrieri Andre (Dioscoreaceae), and Dioscorea communis (L.) Caddick & Wilkin (Dioscoreaceae)—is described and illustrated using LM, SEM, and TEM. The main difference is in microsporogenesis,

Cross‐Scale Hierarchical Targeted Delivery System Based on Small‐Scale Magnetic Robots
This article reviews a cross‐scale hierarchical targeted delivery system that integrates magnetic continuum robots and magnetic microrobots. By combining rapid long‐range navigation with precise microscale targeting, the system overcomes key limitations of single‐scale approaches.

PtABI3 represses the age biomarker gene PtDAL1 during male cone development in conifer
The age biomarker gene PtDAL1 in conifers undergoes expression resetting during pollen maturation, but its regulatory mechanisms remain unclear. This study identifies PtABI3, a B3 transcription factor (TF) in Pinus tabuliformis, as a key repressor of ...

Effects of post-translational modifications catalysed by pollen transglutaminase on the functional properties of microtubules and actin filaments [PDF]
TGases (transglutaminases) are a class of calcium-dependent enzymes that catalyse the interactions between acyl acceptor glutamyl residues and amine donors, potentially making crosslinks between proteins.
