Transcriptome Analysis of Flowering Time Genes under Drought Stress in Maize Leaves
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 Flowering time is an important factor determining yield and seed quality in maize. A change in flowering time is a strategy used to survive abiotic stresses.

Shaping Ti3C2 MXene Nanospheres for Precision Near‐Infrared Photothermal Therapy
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.In this study, we report producing spherical MXenes via fs laser fragmentation of Ti3C2 flakes in liquid medium. The nanoparticles demonstrated pronounced light absorption and high photothermal conversion efficiencies of 68% and 63% under heating with NIR‐I and NIR‐II lasers, respectively.

Influence of cllimate warmening on flowering time of early and lately flowering forest plants
RUDN Journal of Ecology and Life Safety, 2011 It is popular to lean upon the bioclimatic models while discussing global warming influence on land and water ecosystems. These models to some extend assume similarity of phenological reaction of organisms on air temperature rising.

Natural variation of the RICE FLOWERING LOCUS T 1 contributes to flowering time divergence in rice.
PLoS ONE, 2013 In rice (Oryza sativa L.), there is a diversity in flowering time that is strictly genetically regulated. Some indica cultivars show extremely late flowering under long-day conditions, but little is known about the gene(s) involved.

Digital Actuation Control of Soft Robotic Origami With Self‐Folding Liquid Crystal Elastomer Hinges
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Self‐folding soft‐rigid hybrid robotic origami is enabled by liquid crystal elastomer actuators with embedded Joule heating and closed‐loop digital control. Digitally addressable hinges provide reversible and programmable transitions between distinct folded states while maintaining actuation performance at high cycle counts (over 1500).

Escape from floral herbivory by early flowering in Arabidopsis halleri subsp. gemmifera [PDF]
, 2018 Natural selection on flowering phenology has been studied primarily in terms of plant-pollinator interactions and effects of abiotic conditions. Little is known, however, about geographic variation in other biotic factors such as herbivores and its ...

Snow tussocks, chaos, and the evolution of mast seeding [PDF]
, 2002 One hitherto intractable problem in studying mast seeding (synchronous intermittent heavy flowering by a population of perennial plants) is determining the relative roles of weather, plant reserves, and evolutionary selective pressures such as predator ...

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 Soybean (Glycine max L.) is a major legume crop that is mainly distributed in temperate regions. The adaptability of soybean to grow at relatively high latitudes is attributed to natural variations in major genes and quantitative trait loci (QTLs) that ...

Actuating and Sensing Composites of Liquid Crystal Elastomers and Poly(ionic liquid)s
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Ionic conductive, mechanically tough, flexible, and stretchable filaments of a composite material comprising a liquid crystal elastomer and a poly(ionic liquid) are produced through 3D printing, which exhibit large actuation strain under stimulation and electrical resistance variation in response to deformation or environmental condition changes. Their
