Physiological roles of lignins – tuning cell wall hygroscopy and biomechanics
Summary Lignins constitute the second most abundant carbon‐storing biopolymers in the biosphere. These phenolic polymers accumulate in different concentrations, compositions, and localisations within and between cell wall layers and cell types. Lignins were acquired during plant terrestrialisation 450 million years ago, and the diversification of their

Heating Standards and Obsolescence in Post-War Britain’s Homes for Today and Tomorrow
In 1962, a short film by Shell-Mex and BP Limited (Companies of the Royal Dutch/Shell Group and the British Petroleum Group) was prepared for the 29th Annual Conference and Exhibition of the National Society of Clean Air in Britain to encourage British ...

Summary In mammals, blood sugar levels are tightly controlled by two hormones: insulin and glucagon. In flowering plants, a comparable regulatory mechanism exists, mediated by the sugar‐signalling molecule trehalose 6‐phosphate (Tre6P). Similar to insulin, Tre6P functions as a signal and negative feedback regulator of sucrose, the main transport sugar ...

Summary Xylem trait studies have enhanced our understanding of how plants strategically adapt their morphological and anatomical features to diverse climates. Despite the importance of the phloem in plant functioning, similar studies of phloem traits are lacking.

Toward understanding apoplastic freezing under negative pressure
Summary The impact of negative liquid pressure on the freezing of xylem sap is a unique scientific problem. Equilibrium thermodynamics would suggest that, due to the density anomaly of ice, sap under tension should freeze at higher temperatures than under positive pressure.

Symplastic and apoplastic pathways for local distribution of silicon in rice leaves
Summary Silicon (Si) is highly accumulated in both the leaf blade and sheath of rice, but the transporter mediating the local distribution of Si between these two tissues remains unidentified. We investigated the role of an aquaporin, OsLsi6, in the local distribution of Si in rice leaves.

Unraveling water pathways and sources in leafless maples during early spring sap ascent
Summary Maple trees repair cold‐induced embolism by generating positive stem pressure during their leafless state, altering sap transport in ways that remain poorly understood. This xylem pressure also drives sap exudation, enabling maple sap harvest for syrup production.
