Abstract We report a novel glycan array architecture that binds the mannose‐specific binding protein, concanavalin A (ConA), with sub‐femtomolar avidity. new radical photopolymerization developed specifically for this application combines grafted‐from thiol–(meth)acrylate polymerization thiol–ene chemistry to graft glycans growing polymer brushes. The propagation of brushes was studied by carry...

ABSTRACT Grafting can be an ally in the vegetable’s soilless cultivation, being objective of this work evaluate growth and production, as well to define thermal sum trophic limit grafted non-grafted tomato plants cultivated substrate. The experiments were conducted a protected environment city Jaguari-RS, two growing seasons years 2019 2020. Italian Gaucho cultivars used, rootstock was chosen f...

We report on the reactivity of grafted tantalum organometallic catalysts with molecular oxygen. The changes in the local Ta electronic structure were followed by in situ high-energy resolution off-resonant spectroscopy (HEROS). The results revealed agglomeration and formation of Ta dimers, which cannot be reversed. The process occurs independently of starting grafted complex.

Ž . Several polymer-coated and polymer-grafted multi-walled carbon nanotubes MWNTs were synthesized and characterized using TEM and HRTEM. The polymer-coated or polymer-grafted MWNTs formed stable solutions in DMF. Their nonlinear optical properties were investigated using 532 nm nanosecond laser pulses. These polymer–MWNT composites still possess strong nonlinear optical properties. q 2000 Els...

Organic heirloom tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum L.) are difficult to grow in Florida as a result of root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) (RKN) and hot, humid growing conditions. Although grafting with resistant rootstocks has been shown effective for RKN management in tomato production, little research has been conducted on grafted heirloom tomatoes under Florida conditions. In this 2-year st...

Natural root grafts occur in many tree species, but this widespread phenomenon has received only little attention. For many years, physiological aspects such as transfer of organic materials, water and minerals were considered their major significance. Better anchorage in flooded areas or in windy habitats was also proposed to select for this character. I propose that root grafts provide severa...

The effect of grafting and post-grafting temperature on the plant development of two watermelon cultivars at transplantation and on subsequent fruit quality was studied. Watermelon cv. Sugar Baby and Crimson Sweet were self-rooted or grafted onto rootstock RS 841 F1 (Cucurbita maxima × C. moschata) or bottlegourd [Lagenaria siceraria f. clavata] (year 1), plus L. siceraria f. pyrotheca (ye...
