Divergent Transcriptional Architectures Beyond Core CAM Genes in Facultative and Constitutive CAM Species in Tillandsia L. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a water‐efficient photosynthetic strategy involving a coordinated suite of complex traits including metabolic, anatomical and regulatory aspects that shift across the diel cycle. While CAM has evolved repeatedly in land plants, the evolutionary routes enabling this convergence remain elusive.

Accelerate Mass Transport of Proton and Carbon Sources by Super-Hygroscopic and Porous Nanosheets for Continuous CO<sub>2</sub>-To-Ethylene Upgrade. [PDF]
The conceptual diagram of the Tillandsia and a localized enlargement of its leaves. Abstract Gas‐water/catalyst triple‐phase interface and the microenvironment play critical roles in the reaction kinetics and production rate of electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reactions (CO2RR), which steer concerted proton‐electron transfer steps.

Nature-Inspired Design Strategies for Efficient Atmospheric Water Harvesting. [PDF]
This review presents advances in bioinspired atmospheric water harvesting systems, emphasizing how structural motifs such as wettability gradients, directional transport, and hierarchical porosity have been translated into engineered fog‐collection and vapor‐sorption strategies for enhanced water uptake, accelerated transport, and energy‐efficient ...

Floral Roles in Hummingbirds-Mediated Indirect Plant Interactions in Tropical Andean Communities. [PDF]
Hummingbirds connect plants by moving pollen. Some flowers primarily donate, while, others primarily receive, and these shifting roles influence plant reproductive success depending on abundance and nectar rewards, shaping plant reproduction in the tropical Andes. Chord diagrams represent heterospecific pollen transfer among 31 flowering species across
