Abstract

It tastes like coconut that's lost most of its moisture" The researchers collected the bacterial cellulose, then air-dried it and dipped it in sodium alginate, a carbohydrate found in algae, to fill the pores in the cellulose that would otherwise absorb water. Sodium alginate also has the benefit of sticking to itself, so the researchers could simply roll the sheets of cellulose up into straws, with no glue required (Advanced Functional Materials, doi.org/gnz7q7). WHEN it comes to drinking with a straw, there is no perfect option - plastic straws can release microplastics, while paper straws buckle and bend when they get wet. [Extracted from the article]

Abstract

This article presents a report "IVth Meeting of the International Council for the Study of Viruses and Virus Diseases of Grapevine, Colmar," by Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique. This report of the 4th symposium on viruses attacking the grapevine provides an up-to-date review of the present problems and also includes paper on several diseases probably caused by mycoplasms. The increasing importance of clonal breeding of vines makes it doubly important that virus-free stocks are used.

12. The rhizosphere zoo: An overview of plant-associated communities of microorganisms, including phages, bacteria, archaea, and fungi, and of some of their structuring factors.

Abstract

The article discusses some aspects of the taxonomical and functional microbial diversity of the rhizosphere. Rhizospheres are responsible for making a transition zone between the bulk soil and the plant root surface. According to botanists, bacteria residing in the rhizosphere most likely originate from the surrounding bulk soil and thrive under conditions prevailing in the neighbourhood of plant roots. Studies have concluded that microorganisms present in the rhizosphere play important roles in the growth and in ecological fitness of their plant host.
