Specific Leaf Area on Fresh Matter Basis: A Soft Trait for Leaf Thickness? [PDF]

, 2023
Leaf dry matter content (LDMC) and the specific leaf area (SLA), are leaf traits frequently measured in field studies. Unfortunately, leaf thickness (LT) rarely is measured because that is time consuming and needs special equipment.

Utkin et al.'s dataset on specific leaf area

, 2021
Specific leaf area (SLA, one-sided leaf area per unit of dry mass) is a key trait indicating plant growth strategy and its responses to changing environments. Despite its high relevance for ecological research and recent efforts to mobilize the trait data, information on SLA in many plant lineages and biogeographic regions is still underrepresented. To

Specific leaf area, leaf nitrogen content, and photosynthetic acclimation of Trifolium repens L. seedlings grown at different irradiances and nitrogen concentrations

, 2008
Clover seedlings were grown at different nitrogen concentrations (5, 10, 15, 20, 25 mM NO(3)(-) i.e. N(5) to N(25)) and two irradiances, I (200 and 400 mu mol m(-2) s(-1) of photon flux density, i.e. I (200) and I (400)). Net photosynthetic rate (P (N)),

Conformational Switching of Proteins on Material Surfaces Enabled by Peptide‐Oriented Adsorption

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Responsive biointerfaces could be achieved using conformationally responsive proteins; however, their interconversion can be lost upon surface adsorption. Herein, we demonstrate that the incorporation a Au binding peptide into calmodulin allows for binding control on Au wherein the protein retains conformational switching. This capability was confirmed

Growth and chlorophyll indices in seedlings of Calotropis procera (Aiton) W. T. Aiton submitted to different levels of shading

Agro@mbiente On-line, 2019
Several abiotic factors may influence the growth and development of forest species. Among these, luminosity is one of the most important, because it affects plant physiological processes and control their metabolism.

Bio‐Inspired Artificial Ionic Mechanoreceptor

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A skin‐inspired artificial mechanoreceptor based on ionic interactions is presented for biomimetic tactile sensing. Pressure‐driven ionic redistribution within microfluidic channels generates a self‐powered electrical signal without external bias. The generated waveform exhibits mechanoreceptor‐like temporal features, including overshoot and undershoot,
