Achieving long-term stability of thin-film electrodes for neurostimulation.
Implantable electrodes that can reliably measure brain activity and deliver an electrical stimulus to a target tissue are increasingly employed to treat various neurological diseases and neuropsychiatric disorders. Flexible...
Stresses of PTT, Giesekus, and Oldroyd-B fluids in a Newtonian velocity field near the stick-slip singularity
We characterise the stress singularity of the Oldroyd-B, Phan-Thien-Tanner (PTT), and Giesekus viscoelastic models in steady planar stick-slip flows. For both PTT and Giesekus models in the presence of a solvent viscosity...
Ultrastructure and optics of the prism-like petal epidermal cells of Eschscholzia californica (California poppy).
Bodo D Wilts, Paula J Rudall, Edwige Moyroud, Tom Gregory, Yu Ogawa, Silvia Vignolini, Ullrich Steiner, Beverley J Glover
Aug 07, 2018
The petals of Eschscholzia californica (California poppy) are robust, pliable and typically coloured intensely orange or yellow owing to the presence of carotenoid pigments; they are also highly reflective at certain angles...

We characterise the stress singularity of the Oldroyd-B, Phan-Thien-Tanner (PTT), and Giesekus viscoelastic models in steady planar stick-slip flows. For both PTT and Giesekus models in the presence of a solvent viscosity...
Testing viscoelastic numerical schemes using the Oldroyd-B fluid in Newtonian kinematics
We focus here on using a Newtonian velocity field to evaluate numerical schemes for two different formulations of viscoelastic flow. The two distinct formulations we consider, correspond to either using a fixed basis for the...

A plant's diet, surviving in a variable nutrient environment.
As primary producers, plants rely on a large aboveground surface area to collect carbon dioxide and sunlight and a large underground surface area to collect the water and mineral nutrients needed to support their growth and...
Dancing to a different tune, can we switch from chemical to biological nitrogen fixation for sustainable food security?
Our current food production systems are unsustainable, driven in part through the application of chemically fixed nitrogen. We need alternatives to empower farmers to maximise their productivity sustainably. Therefore, we...

Teaching provision for old age psychiatry in medical schools in the UK and Ireland
Aims and method This work builds on a survey first done in 1999 to understand how old age psychiatry teaching is embedded in undergraduate medical schools in the UK and Ireland and the influence of academic old age psychiatrists...
Socioeconomic position and cardiovascular mortality in 63 million adults from Brazil.
Poppy Alice Carson Mallinson, Shammi Luhar, Elizabeth Williamson, Mauricio L Barreto, Sanjay Kinra
Jan 27, 2021
BACKGROUND: It has been suggested that cardiovascular disease exhibits a 'social cross-over', from greater risk in higher socioeconomic groups to lower socioeconomic groups, on economic development, but robust evidence is...
Genetic strategies for improving crop yields.
Julia Bailey-Serres, Jane E Parker, Elizabeth A Ainsworth, Giles ED Oldroyd, Julian I Schroeder
Mar 11, 2020
The current trajectory for crop yields is insufficient to nourish the world's population by 20501. Greater and more consistent crop production must be achieved against a backdrop of climatic stress that limits yields, owing to...
Nodulation and nitrogen fixation in Medicago truncatula strongly alters the abundance of its root microbiota and subtly affects its structure.

Jul 28, 2021
Receptor-like kinases (RLKs) are key cell signaling components. The rice ARBUSCULAR RECEPTOR-LIKE KINASE 1 (OsARK1) regulates the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) association postarbuscule development and belongs to an undefined...
Engineering transkingdom signalling in plants to control gene expression in rhizosphere bacteria.
Barney A Geddes, Ponraj Paramasivan, Amelie Joffrin, Amber L Thompson, Kirsten Christensen, Beatriz Jorrin, Paul Brett, Stuart J Conway, Giles ED Oldroyd, Philip S Poole
Sep 10, 2019
The root microbiota is critical for agricultural yield, with growth-promoting bacteria able to solubilise phosphate, produce plant growth hormones, antagonise pathogens and fix N2. Plants control the microorganisms in their...
A combination of chitooligosaccharide and lipochitooligosaccharide recognition promotes arbuscular mycorrhizal associations in Medicago truncatula.
Feng Feng, Jongho Sun, Guru V Radhakrishnan, Tak Lee, Zoltán Bozsóki, Sébastien Fort, Aleksander Gavrin, Kira Gysel, Mikkel B Thygesen, Kasper Røjkjær Andersen, Simona Radutoiu, Jens Stougaard, Giles ED Oldroyd
Nov 09, 2020
Plants associate with beneficial arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi facilitating nutrient acquisition. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi produce chitooligosaccharides (COs) and lipo-chitooligosaccharides (LCOs), that promote symbiosis...
Development of an Intervention Setting Ontology for behaviour change
Emma Norris, Marta M Marques, Ailbhe N Finnerty, Alison J Wright, Robert West, Janna Hastings, Poppy Williams, Rachel N Carey, Michael P Kelly, Marie Johnston, Susan Michie
Oct 24, 2020
Background: Contextual factors such as an intervention's setting are key to understanding how interventions to change behaviour have their effects and patterns of generalisation across contexts. The intervention's setting is not...

Temperature is a major environmental cue affecting plant growth and development. Plants often experience higher temperatures in the context of a 24 h day-night cycle, with temperatures peaking in the middle of the day. Here, we...
