Mathematical modeling of collagen turnover in biological tissue [PDF]
The final publication is available at Springer via http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00285-012-0613-yWe present a theoretical and computational model for collagen turnover in soft biological tissues. Driven by alterations in the mechanical environment, collagen

Cell walls and the developmental anatomy of the Brachypodium distachyon stem internode. [PDF]
While many aspects of plant cell wall polymer structure are known, their spatial and temporal distribution within the stem are not well understood. Here, we studied vascular system and fiber development, which has implication for both biofuel feedstock ...

BRL1 and BRL3 are novel brassinosteroid receptors that function in vascular differentiation in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Plant steroid hormones, brassinosteroids (BRs), are perceived by the plasma membrane-localized leucine-rich-repeat-receptor kinase BRI1. Based on sequence similarity, we have identified three members of the BRI1 family, named BRL1, BRL2 and BRL3.

Ultrasound localization microscopy to image and assess microvasculature in a rat kidney. [PDF]
The recent development of ultrasound localization microscopy, where individual microbubbles (contrast agents) are detected and tracked within the vasculature, provides new opportunities for imaging the vasculature of entire organs with a spatial ...

Statistical mapping of maize bundle intensity at the stem scale using spatial normalisation of replicated images. [PDF]
The cellular structure of plant tissues is a key parameter for determining their properties. While the morphology of cells can easily be described, few studies focus on the spatial distribution of different types of tissues within an organ.

Architecture of optimal transport networks [PDF]
We analyze the structure of networks minimizing the global resistance to flow (or dissipated energy) with respect to two different constraints: fixed total channel volume and fixed total channel surface area.
