DOI: 10.1002/adhm.202300456
Abstract: The hostile oxidative wound microenvironment, defective angiogenesis and uncontrolled release of therapeutic factors are major challenges in improving the diabetic wound healing. Herein, adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC)-derived exosomes (Exos) were firstly loaded into Ag@bovine serum… read more here.

Multifunctional 3D‐Printed Pollen Grain‐Inspired Hydrogel Microrobots for On‐Demand Anchoring and Cargo Delivery
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Advanced Materials"
DOI: 10.1002/adma.202209812
Abstract: While a majority of wireless microrobots have shown multi‐responsiveness to implement complex biomedical functions, their functional executions are strongly dependent on the range of stimulus inputs, which curtails their functional diversity. Furthermore, their responsive functions… read more here.

Heterostyly promotes compatible pollination in buckwheats: Comparisons of intraflower, intraplant, and interplant pollen flow in distylous and homostylous Fagopyrum.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1013
Abstract: PREMISE OF THE STUDY Heterostyly, the reciprocal positioning of stigmas and anthers in different floral morphs, has long been thought to promote intermorph pollination. However, extensive intramorph pollination occurs commonly in heterostylous species, leading to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1447
Abstract: PREMISE Water-pollination (hydrophily) is a rare but important pollination mechanism that has allowed angiosperms to colonize marine and aquatic habitats. Hydrophilous plants face unique reproductive challenges, and many have evolved characteristic pollen traits and pollination… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16035
Abstract: Abstract Premise Hybridization between cross‐compatible species depends on the extent of competition between alternative mates. Even if stigmatic compatibility allows for hybridization, hybridization requires the heterospecific pollen to be competitive. Here, we determined whether conspecific… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16078
Abstract: Abstract Premise Floral orientation is central to plant–pollinator interactions and is commonly associated with floral symmetry. Bilaterally symmetrical flowers are often oriented horizontally for optimal pollinator positioning and pollen transfer efficiency, while the orientation of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16113
Abstract: PREMISE Why have pollen grains evolved to be exceptionally large in some species? Pollen feeding hypothesis suggests that if the proportion of pollen amounts for feeding is reduced in a flower, the low allocation to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16144
Abstract: The movement of pollen grains from anthers to stigmas, often by insect pollinator vectors, is essential for plant reproduction. However, pollen is also a unique vehicle for viral spread. Pollen-associated plant viruses reside on the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16158
Abstract: PREMISE Pollen-rewarding plants face two conflicting constraints: They must prevent consumptive emasculation while remaining attractive to pollen-collecting visitors. Small pollen packages (the quantity of pollen available in a single visit) may discourage visitors from grooming… read more here.
