Here the authors show that the asymmetric architecture of the cuticle creates a polarity gradient to ensure directional movement of water through olive and ivy leaf cuticles and construct bioinspired artificial membranes that mimic cuticle behaviour.

Susceptible refuge planting has been utilized successfully in the past to mitigate the evolution of virulent pest insects (able to overcome resistance) in response to pest resistant crop cultivars. Such refuges decrease the selective pressure imposed upon pests by providing habitat for non-virulent pes...

Plant physiology and structure are constantly changing according to internal and external factors. The study of plant water dynamics can give information on these changes, as they are linked to numerous plant functions. Currently, most of the methods use

Some plants have male and female parts on the same flower and can self-pollinate, while other plants produce male and female parts on separate plants. In any event, pollination requires the movement of pollen from the stamen to the pistil so the steps of sexual plant reproduction can continue...
The same applies to plant organs where molecular movement within a cytoplasm is less costly than passing through cell interfaces. Cells that lie upon shortest paths between other pairs of cells are therefore able to control the flow of information across an organ. Network centrality measures have ...

Plant cells encase themselves within a complex polysaccharide wall, which constitutes the raw material that is used to manufacture textiles, paper, lumber, films, thickeners and other products. The plant cell wall is also the primary source of cellulose,
Healthy plants host diverse but taxonomically structured communities of microorganisms, the plant microbiota, that colonize every accessible plant tissue. Plant-associated microbiomes confer fitness advantages to the plant host, including growth promotio
