Ricca's factors as mobile proteinaceous effectors of electrical signaling
Leaf-feeding insects trigger high-amplitude, defense-inducing electrical signals called slow wave potentials (SWPs). These signals are thought to be triggered by the long-distance transport of low molecular mass elicitors termed Ricca's factors. We sought ...
CELL PRESS2023RNA Sequencing of Arabidopsis thaliana Seedlings after Non-Thermal Plasma-Seed Treatment Reveals Upregulation in Plant Stress and Defense Pathways
Ivo Furno, Alan Howling, Alexandra Waskow
Not all agricultural practices are sustainable; however, non-thermal plasma treatment of seeds may be an eco-friendly alternative to improve macroscopic plant growth parameters. Despite the numerous successful results of plasma-seed treatments reported in ...
MDPI2022Understanding the mechanisms of non-thermal plasma treatments on seeds
The motivation driving plasma-seed treatment research is the renewed importance of sustainable, eco-friendly agriculture. There is a constant interest in finding alternatives to minimize resource use and environmental degradation, while ensuring healthy se ...
EPFL2022Time Dependent Image Generation of Plants from Incomplete Sequences with CNN-Transformer
Data imputation of incomplete image sequences is an essential prerequisite for analyzing and monitoring all development stages of plants in precision agriculture. For this purpose, we propose a conditional Wasserstein generative adversarial network TransGr ...
SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHING AG2022Advantages and Limitations of Surface Analysis Techniques on Plasma-Treated Arabidopsis thaliana Seeds
Ivo Furno, Alan Howling, Alexandra Waskow
Surface characterization of plasma-treated seeds has made significant progress over the last decade. Most papers in the literature use scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and contact angle goniometry to investigate surface modifications. However, very few p ...
2021An In Situ FTIR Study of DBD Plasma Parameters for Accelerated Germination of Arabidopsis thaliana Seeds
Ivo Furno, Alan Howling, Alexandra Waskow, Lorenzo Ibba
Current agricultural practices are not sustainable; however, the non-thermal plasma treatment of seeds may be an eco-friendly alternative to alter macroscopic plant growth parameters. Despite numerous successful results of plasma-seed treatments reported i ...
MDPI2021A constitutively monomeric UVR8 photoreceptor confers enhanced UV-B photomorphogenesis
Kelvin Ka Ching Lau, Roman Podolec
The plant ultraviolet-B (UV-B) photoreceptor UVR8 plays an important role in UV-B acclimation and survival. UV-B absorption by homodimeric UVR8 induces its monomerization and interaction with the E3 ubiquitin ligase COP1, leading ultimately to gene express ...
NATL ACAD SCIENCES2021Optogenetic control of Neisseria meningitidis Cas9 genome editing using an engineered, light-switchable anti-CRISPR protein
Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, Zander Harteveld, Julius Valten Upmeier Zu Belzen
Optogenetic control of CRISPR-Cas9 systems has significantly improved our ability to perform genome perturbations in living cells with high precision in time and space. As new Cas orthologues with advantageous properties are rapidly being discovered and en ...
2021Common Gene Expression Patterns in Environmental Model Organisms Exposed to Engineered Nanomaterials: A Meta-Analysis
Kristin Schirmer, Anze Zupanic
The use of omics is gaining importance in the field of nanoecotoxicology; an increasing number of studies are aiming to investigate the effects and modes of action of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) in this way. However, a systematic synthesis of the outco ...
AMER CHEMICAL SOC2020Automated 3D Optical Coherence Tomography to Elucidate Biofilm Morphogenesis Over Large Spatial Scales
Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Anna Depetris, Antoine Wiedmer
Biofilms are a most successful microbial lifestyle and prevail in a multitude of environmental and engineered settings. Understanding biofilm morphogenesis, that is the structural diversification of biofilms during community assembly, represents a remarkab ...
