Increasing the Nighttime Lighting Duration Can Hasten Flowering of Long-day Plants

open access: yesHortScience
Low-intensity (≈2 μmol·m−2·s−1) photoperiodic lighting is often delivered at night to promote flowering of long-day greenhouse ornamentals when natural daylengths are short.

The Morphological Responses of Calendula officinalis L. “Radio” to the Foliar Application of Benzyladenine and Different Light Spectra

open access: yesAgronomy, 2021
Pot marigold is a valuable medicinal plant with great decorative value. Three combinations of light (white (W)—170 μmol m−2 s−1, white + blue (W+B)—230 μmol m−2 s−1, white + red (W+R)—230 μmol m−2 s−1) were used to analyse the influence of a diversified ...

Colored Shade Nets Affect Growth but Not Flowering of Four Greenhouse-grown Potted Ornamental Species

open access: yesHortScience, 2023
The color of horticultural shade nets is known to influence crop growth and quality because of variations in the amount and quality of light. Four ornamental plant species (celosia, begonia, gerbera, and fountain grass) were grown under aluminet, pearl ...

Filtering Light-Emitting Diodes to Investigate Amber and Red Spectral Effects on Lettuce Growth

open access: yesPlants, 2021
Red and blue light are the principal wavelengths responsible for driving photosynthetic activity, yet amber light (595 nm) has the highest quantum efficiency and amber-rich high pressure sodium lamps result in superior or comparable plant performance. On

Red Light Running in Iowa, Jaunary 2001 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Crashes related to red light running account for more than 800 deaths and thousands of injuries each year in the United States. Many states and local jurisdictions have undertaken studies and enacted programs in reaction to this major transportation ...

Bimodal activation of different neuron classes with the spectrally red-shifted channelrhodopsin chimera C1V1 in Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The C. elegans nervous system is particularly well suited for optogenetic analyses of circuit function: Essentially all connections have been mapped, and light can be directed at the neuron of interest in the freely moving, transparent animals, while ...

Peri-Anthracenethioindigo: a Scaffold for Efficient All-Red-Light and NIR Molecular Photoswitching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Photoswitching with red light is a greatly desired capability to evade photodamage and achieve specific photoresponses. In virtually all cases however, only one switching direction uses red light while for the reverse switching UV or visible light is ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Evaluating the Effectiveness of Red Light Running Camera Enforcement in Cedar Rapids and Developing Guidelines for Selection and Use of Red Light Running Countermeasures Final Report, November 2011 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Red light running (RLR) is a problem in the US that has resulted in 165,000 injuries and 907 fatalities annually. In Iowa, RLR-related crashes make up 24.5 percent of all crashes and account for 31.7 percent of fatal and major injury crashes at ...

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...
