Concurrent uncertainties and investments: Offset effect of Brexit and COVID‐19 on SME growth
European Management Review, EarlyView.Abstract This study investigates the impact of uncertainty driven by dual crises, regulatory/institutional uncertainty (illustrated by Brexit) and market/operational uncertainty (illustrated by the COVID‐19 pandemic), on the growth trajectories of SMEs. Using Real Options Theory as a guiding framework, hypotheses are developed to examine how investment

Molecular dynamics simulations of swift heavy ion induced defect recovery in SiC
, 2012 Swift heavy ions induce a high density of electronic excitations that can cause the formation of amorphous ion tracks in insulators. No ion tracks have been observed in the semiconductor SiC, but recent experimental work suggests that irradiation damaged

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Osmotic stressors induce developmental and physiological changes in rice (Oryza sativa) seedlings, which are modulated by cell‐type‐specific gene expression and regulatory networks. We exposed plants to two levels of drought and salinity stress and measured the effects of these stressors on developing leaves by measuring physiological traits, ion ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Molecular chaperones play a central role in the plant proteostasis machinery by aiding the folding of nascent proteins, preventing aggregation, and repairing or degrading damaged proteins. These functions are especially essential during abiotic and biotic stress, which can destabilise cellular proteins and disrupt metabolic homoeostasis.

Plant Biology, EarlyView.Common bean genotypes differ in their iron acquisition through distinct Strategy I responses and root exudation patterns. Abstract Iron (Fe) deficiency in food crops, particularly on calcareous soils, limits productivity and human nutrition. This study investigated two common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) genotypes, Guaymí (high Fe‐accumulating, HI) and ...

Deformation bands in metallic glasses induced by swift heavy ions
, 2006 We present a direct experimental evidence that shear bands in metallic glasses can be induced by swift heavy ion irradiation. Transmission electron microscopy micrographs show that shear bands nucleate in the vicinity of the ion paths.
