Episodic Drought Alters Sweetpotato Root System Architecture Attributes During Storage Root Initiation and Early Bulking Stages

HortScience
Cumulative evidence from cereal crops and model systems indicates that root system architecture (RSA), including deeper, lower-cost exploratory roots, contributes to drought resilience; however, the role of comparable RSA traits in vegetatively ...

High Temperature can Change Root System Architecture and Intensify Root Interactions of Plant Seedlings

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Climate change could alter plant aboveground and belowground resource allocation. Compared with shoots, we know much less about how roots, especially root system architecture (RSA) and their interactions, may respond to temperature changes.

Polycarbonate Vitrimers and Dynamic Co‐Networks From Epoxide/Carbon Dioxide Copolymerization

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates how CO2‐derived poly(propylene carbonate) and poly(cyclohexene carbonate) backbones influence vitrimer thermo‐mechanical behavior. By tuning backbone composition, epoxide crosslinker chemistry and blend ratios, the crosslinked materials span a wide property window, from highly extensible to stiff, glassy networks, establishing an

From Waste to Value: A Data‐Driven Framework for Sustainable Raw Materials Substitution in the Ceramic Industry

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With increasing geopolitical risks, environmental pressures, and regulatory demands, the sustainable sourcing of raw materials has become a global priority for achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure), SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production), and SDG

A Single‐Channel Capacitive Sensor for Sequential Discrimination of Proximity, Pressure, and Shear With High Sensitivity in All Three

Small, EarlyView.
A single capacitive element senses proximity, pressure, and shear through one readout channel. Coil‐shaped electrodes sandwich a porous CNT–Ecoflex nanocomposite and an ultrathin insulating layer, so capacitance falls on approach, rises under grip, and falls again under lifting‐induced shear.

A secured cloud‐medical data sharing with A‐BRSA and Salp ‐Ant Lion Optimisation Algorithm

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sharing medical data among healthcare providers, researchers, and patients is crucial for efficient healthcare services. Cloud‐assisted smart healthcare (s‐healthcare) systems have made it easier to store EHRs effectively. However, the traditional encryption algorithms used to secure this data can be vulnerable to attacks if the encryption key

Enabling pandemic‐resilient healthcare: Narrowband Internet of Things and edge intelligence for real‐time monitoring

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) in deploying robotic sprayers for pandemic‐associated disinfection and monitoring has garnered significant attention in recent research. The authors introduce a novel architectural framework designed to interconnect smart monitoring robotic devices within healthcare facilities using narrowband Internet of Things ...

Understanding the Intricate Web of Phytohormone Signalling in Modulating Root System Architecture

, 2021
Root system architecture (RSA) is an important developmental and agronomic trait that is regulated by various physical factors such as nutrients, water, microbes, gravity, and soil compaction as well as hormone-mediated pathways.

The impact of the rhizobia–legume symbiosis on host root system architecture [PDF]

, 2020
Legumes form symbioses with rhizobia to fix N2 in root nodules to supplement their nitrogen (N) requirements. Many studies have shown how symbioses affect the shoot, but far less is understood about how they modify root development and root system ...

Herbivory enhances cadmium foraging in the invasive hyperaccumulating plant Phytolacca americana

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Biological invasions and heavy metal pollution are two pervasive environmental challenges threatening global ecosystems. While the elemental defence hypothesis posits that certain plants accumulate heavy metals to deter herbivores, it remains unclear whether invasive ...
