The underappreciated roles of fog and dew on vegetation and biocrusts

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Fog and dew represent minor components of ecosystem water budgets in most ecosystems. However, fog and dew can play an essential role in ecosystem dynamics and are particularly important for water‐limited systems. In addition to serving as direct water inputs, fog and dew can influence microclimate and water redistribution, thereby promoting ...

Multi‐Omics Analyses Reveal the Red and Far‐Red Light Combination Enhancing Heterologous Protein and Metabolite Production in Nicotiana benthamiana

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transient expression of exogenous protein in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves via agroinfiltration offers a rapid and efficient platform for functional gene discovery and heterologous production of valuable eukaryotic proteins and metabolites. Though light quality is an important factor for plant photomorphogenesis, its impact on the efficiency of

Alleviation of photoaging‐associated MMP upregulation, prostanoid biosynthesis, and cell cycle arrest with titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, and inorganic‐only (ZnO + TiO2) sunscreens

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Inorganic sunscreens containing the UV filters titanium dioxide (TiO2) and/or zinc oxide (ZnO) alleviated various biomarkers of photoaging in human dermal fibroblasts, at a gene and protein level. The study provides novel insights that observe the impact of inorganic photoprotection through the molecular biology of skin.
