Programmed Interfacial Phase Separation for Spatiotemporal Fungicide Delivery via Tunable Micro/Nano Architectures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Translating dynamic liquid‐liquid phase separation into robust solid‐state architectures remains a challenge in materials engineering. Here, we report a composition‐driven interfacial assembly strategy that couples supramolecular coacervation with metal‐phenolic coordination to engineer tunable fungicide carriers.

Intra-annual dynamic of opposite and compression wood formation of Pinus massoniana Lamb. in humid subtropical China

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2023
Radial growth of trees can result in opposite wood (OW) and compression wood (CW) due to the varying impact of stem mechanical stress, such as that caused by gravity or wind.

Thermal‐Ionic Coupling in Transpiration‐Inspired Janus Nanofiber Membranes: Synergistic Dry‐Wet Interface Engineering for Solar‐Driven Electricity Generation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A transpiration‐inspired Janus nanofiber membrane creates a persistent dry‐wet interface that couples localized solar heating with hydration‐induced ion regulation. The asymmetric architecture sustains directional water and ion transport, suppresses salt accumulation, and enables simultaneous seawater evaporation and stable electricity generation ...

Evolutionary relationship between organellar DNA inheritance patterns and traits of seed plants

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise In plants, organellar DNA is predominantly maternally inherited, but biparental and paternal inheritance have also been observed. Specific mechanisms, such as plastid exclusion during pollen mitosis or genome degradation, ensure maternal inheritance.

The intensity and spatial dispersion of within‐plant herbivory drive trait‐specific resistance and tolerance in wild cotton

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Herbivory induces complex plant defensive responses that may vary depending on the amount and spatial dispersion of damage on the plant; however, of the two variables, damage dispersion has received much less attention. To address this gap, we studied wild cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) defensive responses to different herbivory amounts ...

Phloem and xylem flow contributions to nectarine fruit development

Acta Horticulturae, 2021
This study aimed at determining how source-sink balance and phloem/xylem flows affect nectarine fruit growth during development. Different levels of water and assimilate availability to growing fruits were induced in vivo by varying leaf:fruit ratio (L:F) of fruiting shoots and by interrupting the phloem stream (girdling) at the base of entire fruiting

Real‐time monitoring of root dielectric properties for assessing crop plant damage caused by foliar application of glyphosate

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise There is a knowledge gap regarding how foliar injury and restricted water uptake can be detected by measuring root dielectric response. This pot study nondestructively evaluated the efficiency of real‐time dielectric measurement to monitor the effects of glyphosate spraying.

Invertase PtrNINV1 and sucrose synthase PtrSUS1/2 positively regulate wood development by enhancing carbon supply in Populus trichocarpa

Industrial Crops and Products
Sucrose, the main carbon source for plant growth, is hydrolyzed by invertases (INVs) and sucrose synthases (SUSs), which are critical for carbon allocation and sink strength.

Hot and cold deserts as eco‐evolutionary arenas for understanding plant resistance to multiple abiotic stressors

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During their long evolutionary history, land plants have evolved a range of adaptations to different abiotic stressors. These help explain present‐day diversity and distribution patterns, as well as the potential resilience of natural and agricultural systems to a changing climate. Most previous research has focused on adaptation to individual

Microtubule‐dependent targeting of the exocyst complex is necessary for xylem development in Arabidopsis [PDF]

New Phytologist, 2016
Summary Cortical microtubules (MTs) play a major role in the patterning of secondary cell wall (SCW) thickenings in tracheary elements (TEs) by determining the sites of SCW deposition. The EXO70A1 subunit of the exocyst secretory vesicle tethering complex was implicated to be important for TE development via the MT interaction.
