Increasing dominance of large lianas in Amazonian forests [PDF]

, 2002
Ecological orthodoxy suggests that old-growth forests should be close to dynamic equilibrium, but this view has been challenged by recent findings that neotropical forests are accumulating carbon and biomass, possibly in response to the increasing ...

RNA‐Micelles as Self‐Assembling Structures for Efficient Co‐Delivery of Synergistic siRNA and Nucleoside Analogues to Treat CRC Lung Metastasis

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Two kinds of self‐assembled RNA micelles were used to co‐deliver synergistic siRNA and nucleoside analogues for the treatment of colorectal cancer lung metastases. Near‐complete elimination of lung cancer metastases was confirmed in an orthotopic lung metastasis model constructed using human colorectal cancer lung metastases patient surgical samples to

Light response of gametophyte in Adiantum flabellulatum: transcriptome analysis and identification of key genes and pathways

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Light serves not only as a signaling cue perceived by plant photoreceptors but also as an essential energy source captured by chloroplasts. However, excessive light can impose stress on plants.

Green Plants in the Red: A Baseline Global Assessment for the IUCN Sampled Red List Index for Plants [PDF]

, 2015
Plants provide fundamental support systems for life on Earth and are the basis for all terrestrial ecosystems; a decline in plant diversity will be detrimental to all other groups of organisms including humans. Decline in plant diversity has been hard to

MPI‐Guided Photothermal Therapy of Prostate Cancer Using Stem Cell Delivery of Magnetotheranostic Nanoflowers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Tumor‐tropic human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) were used as delivery vehicles for magnetotheranostic gold–iron oxide nanoflowers. Magnetic particle imaging of the iron component demonstrated widespread intratumoral distribution and sustained retention in contrast to injection of naked nanoflowers.

Stress-specific adaptation of a non-betalain DODA homolog from pansy (Viola × wittrockiana)

Industrial Crops and Products
The mutual exclusivity of anthocyanin and betalain pigmentation in plants is a classic example of metabolic lineage-specific adaptation. Unlike L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) 4,5-dioxygenase (DODA) in betalain-producing plants, which is ...

Analysis of phenotypic plasticity in response to water constraints in coffee plants growing under field conditions [PDF]

, 2008
In a context of climate change, adaptation of perennial plantations to water constraints becomes a major concern for wood and fruit productivity. Adaptation depends on the level of genetic diversity in breeding and natural populations, as well as their ...

Crassulacean acid metabolism in the Gesneriaceae [PDF]

, 1986
The occurrence of the Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) was studied in four epiphytic species of the Gesneriaceae: two neotropical species, Codonanthe crassifolia and Columnea linearis, and two paleotropical species, Aoschynanthus pulcher and ...

Biobased Bionic Spider Silk via Electrostatic Complexation for Simultaneously Harvesting Atmospheric Water and Triboelectric Energy

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bio‐based bionic spider silk and spider web are first prepared using polyelectrolyte complexation technique for the simultaneous harvesting of water and triboelectric energy. The advantage of this process lies on entirely bio‐based materials, fully green water‐processable procedures, extremely high production rate (99.36%), excellent fog harvesting ...
