Stiffening multistable origami-inspired deployable structures from embeddable bistable units by Dimitrios Michalaros, Clark C. Addis, Jhonatan Rincon, Chelsea Tinsley, Kendal Tinsley, Maria Pundik, Salvador Rojas, Andres F. Arrieta

“…We show that the locking ability of the embedded units helps maintain the stiffness of the Origami-inspired structures under distributed loads, with or without coupling the initial and final hinge twist angles. Applications include stiffening aircraft wings, foldable sails for multimodal vehicles, and space applications such as supporting solar panel arrays on orbital and extraterrestrial vehicles.…”

Strigolactones affect the stomatal and transcriptomic memory of repeated drought stress in tomato by Ivan Visentin, Eva Campo, Diana Davydenko, Paolo Korwin Krukowski, Giulia Russo, Claudio Lovisolo, Andrea Schubert, Francesca Cardinale

“…Several potential candidates are proposed as effectors of strigolactone-dependent drought memory, namely for enhanced abscisic acid sensitivity and antioxidant activities, and for the maintenance of cellular homeostasis via enhanced protein preservation under environmental duress. Our findings bear applicative implications for stress resilience improvement in crops and help to explain why plants treated with synthetic strigolactones display improved performances under a very diverse array of stresses.…”
