Mycobiota Associated with the Vascular Wilt of Poplar

open access: yesPlants, 2021
In 2017, a 560-ha area of hybrid poplar plantation in northern Poland showed symptoms of tree decline. The leaves appeared smaller, yellow-brown, and were shed prematurely. Twigs and smaller branches died without distinct cankers. Trunks decayed from the

Synergistic Integration of Electronic Structure Modulating and Hierarchical Mass Transport Channels in Wood‐Derived Electrocatalysts for Efficient Oxygen Evolution

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
By combining electronic structure modulation and hierarchical channel construction, a wood‐derived Cr‐Co2P@PNC/PCW electrocatalyst is developed. This multicomponent synergistic modulation strategy significantly improves the efficiency of OER. Designing synergistic regulation strategies is widely recognized as an effective approach to enhancing ...

Leafminers on Ornamental Plants

open access: yesEDIS, 2006
Revised! ENY-326, a 4-page illustrated fact sheet by Eileen A. Buss, describes larvae that feed between the upper and lower surfaces of leaves, creating serpentine or blotchy tunnels inside the leaves, including specific sections on Azalea Leafminers ...

Bio‐Inspired Sclerotization of Lignin: A Robust Adhesive for Photothermal Wood‐Based Panels

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A high‐performance lignin adhesive is engineered via an insect‐inspired sclerotization strategy involving oxidation and hyperbranched polymer grafting, overcoming lignin's adhesion failure, and yielding a wet shear strength of 1.02–1.21 MPa. The adhesive endows wood‐based panels with photothermal functionality; building energy simulations indicate HVAC‐

The epigenetic landscape of plant defense: Unlocking nature's toolkit for new plant protection

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
This review examines how epigenetic mechanisms regulate plant immune gene activation, repression, and priming, then links these natural regulatory layers to emerging epigenetic editing, discussing their potential for precise, heritable crop protection and the challenges.

PtoHY5 integrates photoperiodic signals with the ABA pathway to coordinate growth cessation and dormancy in Populus

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In Populus, short days deactivate the growth‐promoting protein PtoHY5, turning off a growth accelerator and activating an abscisic acid‐driven brake. This directly couples growth cessation with dormancy, underscoring the role of abscisic acid in synchronizing these transitions for winter survival.

Proprioception drives tension wood formation for autotropic straightening and postural control in trees

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Proprioception controls trunk straightness in trees through opposite tension wood formation. A spherical growth chamber (a), combined with a two‐dimensional rotating clinostat (b2), suppresses gravi‐ and phototropic sensing. The tree is first tilted horizontally (b1), triggering upward gravitropic bending, actuated by tension wood formation on the ...

A novel method based on high‐resolution imaging spectroscopy to predict fine‐root traits and the economics space of fresh tree roots

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Maps of the estimated root nitrogen concentration in the < 0.5‐mm‐diameter classes of 20 woody species based on the imaging spectroscopy using the shortwave infrared spectral region. Summary Tree fine‐root morphological, anatomical, and chemical traits are important to reflect belowground resource acquisition strategies to support tree growth, but ...

Rethinking the soil core microbiome

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Soil microbiome studies often define ‘core microbiomes’ using different operational criteria, including occurrence thresholds, abundance thresholds, or other selection methods. Using 1813 soil samples collected across four U.S. Department of Energy Bioenergy Research Centers, we show that these different operational choices identify different subsets ...
