Mesophyll porosity is modulated by the presence of functional stomata (2019)
Journal Article
Lundgren, M. R., Mathers, A., Baillie, A. L., Dunn, J., Wilson, M. J., Hunt, L., …Fleming, A. J. (2019). Mesophyll porosity is modulated by the presence of functional stomata. Nature Communications, 10(1), Article 2825. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-10826-5

The formation of stomata and leaf mesophyll airspace must be coordinated to establish an efficient and robust network that facilitates gas exchange for photosynthesis, however the mechanism by which this coordinated development occurs remains unclear...

Physics of animal health: on the mechano-biology of hoof growth and form (2019)
Journal Article
Al-Agele, R., Paul, E., Taylor, S., Watson, C., Sturrock, C., Drakopoulos, M., …Rauch, C. (2019). Physics of animal health: on the mechano-biology of hoof growth and form. Interface, 16(155), 1-12. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsif.2019.0214

Global inequalities in economic access and agriculture productivity imply that a large number of developing countries rely on working equids for transport/agriculture/mining. Therefore, the understanding of hoof conditions/shape variations affecting... Read More about Physics of animal health: on the mechano-biology of hoof growth and form.

Emergent Protective Organogenesis in Date Palms: A Morpho-devo-dynamic Adaptive Strategy During Early Development (2019)
Journal Article
Xiao, T., Raygoza, A. A., Pérez, J. C., Kirschner, G., Deng, Y., Atkinson, B., …Blilou, I. (2019). Emergent Protective Organogenesis in Date Palms: A Morpho-devo-dynamic Adaptive Strategy During Early Development. Plant Cell, 31(8), 1751-1766. https://doi.org/10.1105/tpc.19.00008

Desert plants have developed mechanisms for adapting to hostile desert conditions, yet these mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we describe two unique modes used by desert date palms (Phoenix dactylifera L.) to protect their meristematic tiss...

The Anatomy, Histology and Physiology of the Healthy and Lame Equine Hoof (2019)
Book Chapter

Satisfactory investigations of the equine foot appear to be limited by the histomorphological complexity of internal hoof structures. Foot lameness is considered to be one of the most debilitating pathological disorders of the equine foot. In most sp...

The role of plant species and soil condition in the structural development of the rhizosphere (2019)
Journal Article
Helliwell, J., Sturrock, C., Miller, A., Whalley, W., & Mooney, S. (2019). The role of plant species and soil condition in the structural development of the rhizosphere. Plant, Cell and Environment, 42(6), 1974-1986. https://doi.org/10.1111/pce.13529

© 2019 The Authors Plant, Cell & Environment Published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd Roots naturally exert axial and radial pressures during growth, which alter the structural arrangement of soil at the root–soil interface. However, empirical models s... Read More about The role of plant species and soil condition in the structural development of the rhizosphere.
