In the current scenario, it is an urgent requirement to satisfy the nutritional demands of the
rapidly growing global population. Using conventional farming, nearly one third of crops get …

Plant cells build nanofibrillar walls that are central to plant growth, morphogenesis and
mechanics. Starting from simple sugars, three groups of polysaccharides, namely, cellulose …

The plant cell wall is composed of multiple biopolymers, representing one of the most
complex structural networks in nature. Hundreds of genes are involved in building such a …

In the effort toward sustainable advanced functional materials, nanocelluloses have
attracted extensive recent attention. Nanocelluloses range from rod‐like highly crystalline …

Nutrient fertilization plays a critical role in maintaining soil fertility and improving crop
productivity and quality. Precise nutrient management of horticultural crops is a major …

Extracellular matrixes (ECMs), such as the cell walls and biofilms, are important for
supporting cell integrity and function and regulating intercellular communication. These …

Nanotechnology was well developed during past decades and implemented in a broad
range of industrial applications, which led to an inevitable release of nanomaterials into the …

Background Suboptimal water and nutrient availability are primary constraints in global
agriculture. Root anatomy plays key roles in soil resource acquisition. In this article we …

With the arising of global climate change and resource shortage, in recent years, increased
attention has been paid to environmentally friendly materials. Trees are sustainable and …

Hemicelluloses, a family of heterogeneous polysaccharides with complex molecular
structures, constitute a fundamental component of lignocellulosic biomass. However, the …
