A Method to Study the Distribution Patterns for Metabolites in Xylem and Phloem of Spatholobi Caulis

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
Spatholobi Caulis (SC), the vine stem of Spatholobus suberectus Dunn, is a widely used traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for the treatment of blood stasis syndrome and related diseases.

Modeling of water rising in systems of cylindrical capillaries of different radii

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Research, 2016
The promotion of water in the systems of cylindrical capillaries is studied in detail. A mathematical model of the water movement in both symmetric and asymmetric capillaries connected to a vertical capillary is built.

Semi-Supervised NMF-CNN for Sound Event Detection

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
The lack of strongly labeled data can limit the potential of a Sound Event Detection (SED) system trained using deep learning approaches. To address this issue, this paper proposes a novel method to approximate strong labels for the weakly labeled data ...

Putting two water transport models to the test under wet and dry conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In order to improve fruit quality and quantity, accurate monitoring of the water status is necessary. The water status can be continuously predicted by using a mechanistic water transport and storage model (e.g. Steppe et al., 2006; 2008).

Drought-Conditioning of Quaking Aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) Seedlings During Nursery Production Modifies Seedling Anatomy and Physiology

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
In the western US, quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) regenerates primarily by root suckers after disturbances such as low to moderate severity fires. Planting aspen seedlings grown from seed may provide a mechanism to improve restoration success

Progressive Decline in Xylem Inflow into Developing Plums

open access: yesHortScience, 2021
Recent evidence suggests xylem functionality may decline in developing European plums. Loss of xylem function may have negative consequences for fruit quality.

Stem hydraulic capacitance decreases with drought stress : implications for modelling tree hydraulics in the Mediterranean oak Quercus ilex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Hydraulic modelling is a primary tool to predict plant performance in future drier scenarios. However, as most tree models are validated under non-stress conditions they may fail when water becomes limiting.

Adaptive Hydrogels With Spatiotemporal Stiffening Using pH‐Modulating Enzymes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The chemomechanical coupling in an adaptive hydrogel is studied to further the development of adaptive hydrogels. This coupling is achieved by embedding a pH‐modulating enzyme in a pH‐responsive hydrogel. The enzymatic reaction can be triggered locally, which generates a pH‐decreasing wave throughout the system, increasing the crosslinking density and ...

The role of abscisic acid and water relations in drought responses of subterranean clover [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The role of water relations and abscisic acid (ABA) in the responses to drought were studied in a mediterranean forage crop, Trifolium subterraneum L. under field conditions.

Leaftronics: Bio‐Fractal Scaffolds From Leaf Venation for Low‐Waste Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
“Leaftronics” transforms naturally evolved leaf venation into quasi‐fractal scaffolds for sustainable electronics. Polymer‐infiltrated leaf skeletons can be used to fabricate ultra‐smooth, reflow‐ and thin‐film‐compatible decomposable substrates, while making the same lignocellulose networks conducting results in flexible transparent electrodes.
