Diffusion and bulk flow in phloem loading - a theoretical analysis of the polymer trap mechanism in plants [PDF]

, 2014
Plants create sugar in the mesophyll cells of their leaves by photosynthesis. This sugar, mostly sucrose, has to be loaded via the bundle sheath into the phloem vascular system (the sieve elements), where it is distributed to growing parts of the plant ...

Dynamic Changes in Organ Morphology and K⁺/Na⁺ Content of Pumpkin Seedlings Under Salt Stress

Horticulturae
Pumpkin is widely used as a rootstock to enhance salt tolerance and improve productivity of Cucurbit crops. To date, the morphology and ion parameters of pumpkins at a certain time point under salt stress are well-known.

Irrigation regimes modulate non-structural carbohydrate remobilization and improve grain filling in rice (Oryza sativa L.) by regulating starch metabolism

Journal of Integrative Agriculture
Recently developed ‘super’ rice cultivars with greater yield potentials often suffer from the problem of poor grain filling, especially in inferior spikelets.

Hemangioma Versus Vascular Malformation: Presence of Nerve Bundle Is a Diagnostic Clue for Vascular Malformation

Archives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine, 2005
Abstract Context.—Arteriovenous vascular malformations and hemangiomas are benign vascular lesions that are difficult to distinguish from one another clinically. Also, they may be confused with each other at histopathology. Therefore, histochemical stains for the presence of an artery are frequently used to distinguish between the two.

Emerging functions of mammalian mitochondrial fusion and fission [PDF]

, 2005
Mitochondria provide a myriad of services to the cell, including energy production, calcium buffering and regulation of apoptosis. How these diverse functions are coordinated among the hundreds of mitochondria in a given cell is largely unknown, but is ...

Effect of the Strut Thickness on the Mechanical Properties, Deformation, and Failure Mechanisms of Vascular Bundle–Inspired Structures

Engineering Reports
In this work, the influence of strut thickness on the deformation and failure mechanisms of new vascular bundle–inspired structures, which exhibit comparable or better mechanical properties than honeycomb and star‐shaped lattices, is presented.

Ordered mesoporous nanofibers mimicking vascular bundles for lithium metal batteries

National Science Review
ABSTRACT Hierarchical self-assembly with long-range order above centimeters widely exists in nature. Mimicking similar structures to promote reaction kinetics of electrochemical energy devices is of immense interest, yet remains challenging.
