An Optimized in situ Quantification Method of Leaf H2O2 Unveils Interaction Dynamics of Pathogenic and Beneficial Bacteria in Wheat

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) functions as an important signaling molecule in plants during biotic interactions. However, the extent to which H2O2 accumulates during these interactions and its implications in the development of disease symptoms is unclear. In

Bacterial and archaeal spatial distribution and its environmental drivers in an extremely haloalkaline soil at the landscape scale [PDF]

PeerJ, 2019
Background A great number of studies have shown that the distribution of microorganisms in the soil is not random, but that their abundance changes along environmental gradients (spatial patterns).

Highly efficient degradation of lactic acid by microwave-induced activated carbon catalytic oxidation process

iScience
Summary: High-concentration refractory coffee wastewater containing about 2,000 mg/L of biotoxic lactic acid is treated by microwave technology. At a microwave power of 900 W, a large amount of activated carbon (AC) reduces the number of hot spots. After

Elephant‐Skin‐Inspired Porous Cementitious Tiles with Programmable Crack Networks for Passive Cooling

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Elephant‐skin‐inspired crack networks are programmed in porous diatomaceous earth (DE)‐cement composites using substrate‐guided, stress‐concentration induced fracture. The resulting crack lattices act as capillary conduits that redistribute water, while the porous matrix stores moisture.

Temporal stability of grassland metacommunities is regulated more by community functional traits than species diversity

Ecosphere, 2020
Temporal stability in aboveground net primary productivity (ANPP) is influenced by several attributes of plant communities. Identifying the primary regulators of stability and their roles across spatial scales is of both practical and theoretical ...
