A New Grafting Method for Watermelon to Inhibit Rootstock Regrowth and Enhance Scion Growth

Agriculture, 2021
Grafting is a widely used technique in watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) production. However, cost of grafted seedlings is generally high as a result of intensive labor inputs for propagation using traditional grafting methods such as the manual removal of ...

Bioinspired Design and Synthesis of Polyphenolic Star‐Like and Hyperbranched Polyester Models

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Gallotannin‐inspired star‐like and hyperbranched aromatic polyesters were synthesized from D‐glucose and ABn‐type phenolic acid monomers, such as protocatechuic acid. This bioinspired approach afforded polyphenolic polymeric nanoparticles able to encapsulate hydrophobic dyes, opening new perspectives for biobased encapsulation and delivery systems ...
