Integration of Spatiotemporal Multi‐Omics in Peach Fruit Unravels a Metabolic Niche and the Genetic Basis of Trichome‐Mediated Stress Adaptation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study constructed the first spatiotemporal multi‐omics map of peach fruit and discovered a key candidate gene that synergistically regulates trichome development and drought tolerance through the jasmonic acid signaling pathway, providing insights into the coupling mechanism between development and stress resistance.

Measurement of Soil–Water Characteristic Curve of Vegetative Soil Using Polymer-Based Tensiometer for Maintaining Environmental Sustainability

open access: yes
The interaction between moisture content and soil suction is commonly represented by a soil–water characteristic curve (SWCC). The direct measurement of water content can be easily achieved, but it usually requires a destructive method where the ...

Review of soil-water characteristic curve equations

open access: yes, 1997
Practical applications of unsaturated soil mechanics still lag behind the state-of-the-art knowledge. The main stumbling block is the time-consuming processes involved in the measurement of the unsaturated soil parameters required for the constitutive ...

Recent Advances in Laser‐Induced Graphene‐Based Gas Sensors: From Sensing Mechanisms to Biomedical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Laser‐induced graphene (LIG) provides a scalable, laser‐direct‐written route to porous graphene architecture with tunable chemistry and defect density. Through heterojunction engineering, catalytic functionalization, and intrinsic self‐heating, LIG achieves highly sensitive and selective detection of NOX, NH3, H2, and humidity, supporting next ...

Influences of Deviatoric Stress on the Soil-Water Characteristic Curve

open access: yes, 2011
The soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) is one of the major research subjects in unsaturated soil mechanics. To study the influence of deviatoric stress on the SWCC of an unsaturated soil, a series of triaxial drained shear tests by controlling ...

Mapping the “Supply–Demand–Flow” of Ecosystem Services for Ecosystem Management in China

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops a “supply–demand–flow” framework clarifies how ecosystem services move between regions by distinguishing potential and actual supply and demand. Using integrated biophysical–socioeconomic modeling, nine services in China were mapped.

Correlation between soil-water characteristic curve and collapsibility in undisturbed loess

open access: yesZhongguo dizhi zaihai yu fangzhi xuebao
This study investigates the correlation between the soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) of undisturbed loess and its collapsibility. Undisturbed loess soil samples, obtained from depths up to 30 meters below the surface in Chang’an District, Xi’an ...
