Breeding Willow for Short Rotation Coppice Energy Cropping
, 2014 Willow (Salix) is a diverse and adaptable genus that has served human beings well for many thousands of years. The Roman scholar Pliny the Elder (AD 23–AD 79) advised on willow planting in the Roman Empire. However, it has only recently been subjected to controlled breeding (twentieth century).

Pattern Formation in Non‐Equilibrium Architected Materials
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This article demonstrates an artificial mechanical system ‐ a robotic metamaterial ‐ as an accessible and versatile platform within which to explore and prescribe the reaction‐diffusion driven pattern formation hitherto associated with comparatively less accessible and versatile non‐equilibrium biological and chemical systems.
