Unlocking the grape's secret scent: key gene modulates terpene aroma
Chinese Academy of Sciences

A study explores the ethylene-responsive gene VviERF003's influence on glycosylated monoterpenoid synthesis in grapes, which are pivotal for the fruity and floral notes in wines. Understanding this genetic regulation provides insights into how wine aroma can be influenced, potentially allowing for the development of grapes with enhanced or specific aromatic profiles.

When QDs Meet BPLCEs: Visualized Full-Color and Mechanically-Switchable CPL
Chinese Academy of Sciences

Full-color CPL is achieved by doping different quantum dots (QDs) into reconfigurable blue phase liquid crystal elastomers (BPLCE). Unlike with CPL in the cholesteric phase, BPLCE induces opposite CPL signal, entirely independent of photonic bandgaps (PBGs) and yielding a higher glum value even without matching between PBGs and emission bands of QDs.

Washington University in St. Louis

Something about city life seems to suit powdery mildew, a fungal disease that afflicts many plants, including leaves of garden vegetables and roadside weeds. A new study from biologists at Washington University in St. Louis finds that plants in the city of St. Louis had significantly more mildew than those in the suburbs or countryside.

Organic farmers’ beliefs about soil microbiome affect their practices, study shows
College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign

Organic farming can support soil microorganisms that promote plant defenses and reduce insect pests. But not all organic practices are equally beneficial for soil microbes, and it’s important to understand farmer motivations in order to encourage the adoption of microbiome-supportive efforts. A new study from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and Cornell University looks at how organic farmers’ beliefs about the microbiome influence their soil management practices.
