Base Editing of EUI1 Improves the Elongation of the Uppermost Internode in Two-Line Male Sterile Rice Lines

open access: yesAgriculture, 2023
The use of male sterile lines (MSLs) of rice is essential for heterosis utilization. However, MSLs have a common defect in the elongation of the uppermost internode, eventually leading to incomplete panicle exsertion, blocking pollination, and reducing ...

Cool Kitchen: Processing Starch and Eggshell Powder into Sustainable Coatings for Passive Daytime Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A food‐grade cooling composite made from starch and recycled eggshell powder offers a scalable, ultra‐low‐cost solution for passive daytime radiative cooling. Easily prepared using basic kitchen tools, this material empowers communities, even in areas with limited infrastructure, to stay cooler during worsening summer heat waves.

Tailoring Microstructure in Copper‐Based Conductive Metal–Organic Frameworks for Enhanced Chemiresistive Sensing and Uptake of Sulfur Dioxide

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Precursor‐ and solvent‐mediated synthesis yields four Cu3(HHTP)2 morphologies with distinct physicochemical, sorption, and sensing properties toward SO2. Uptake capacities correlate with BET surface area, while sensing performance scales with particle aspect ratio.

Breeding of the Long-Grain Restorer of Indica-Japonica Hybrid Rice by Using the Genetic Effects of Grain Shape QTLs

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
Grain shape improvement, which determines grain yield, quality traits and commercial value, is an extremely important aspect of rice breeding. Grain size is controlled by multiple genes, and Maker Assistant Selection (MAS) breeding is effective for ...

Local Thermal Conductivity Patterning in Rotating Lattice Crystals of Anisotropic Sb2S3

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Microscale control of thermal conductivity in Sb2S3 is demonstrated via laser‐induced rotating lattice crystals. Thermal conductivity imaging reveals marked thermal transport anisotropy, with the c axis featuring amorphous‐like transport, whereas in‐plane directions (a, b) exhibit 3.5x and 1.7x larger thermal conductivity.
