Origami-like unfolding of hydro-actuated ice plant seed capsules

Hydro-responsive plant movements have provided inspiration for the design of adaptive materials. Harringtonet al. investigate the hydration-dependent unfolding of ice plant seed capsules and find an origami-like folding pattern, which could aid the development of biomimetic folding structures.

Earth's oldest stable crust in the Pilbara Craton formed by cyclic gravitational overturns

The oldest stable crust on Earth may have formed during pulsed growth cycles, according to geochemical analyses of rocks preserved in the Pilbara Craton, Western Australia.

Seed-borne bacteria drive wheat rhizosphere microbiome assembly via niche partitioning and facilitation

A sequential propagation strategy shows how the microbes initially on seeds are key to building complex, reproducible and heritable plant microbiomes.

Fragmented micro-growth habitats present opportunities for alternative competitive outcomes

It’s unclear how fragmented habitats affect species coexistence in bacterial communities. Here, using microfluidic chip experiments and simulations, the authors find that fragmentation leads to more diverse ecological outcomes mostly due to underlying phenotypic variation in founder cells and their stochastic assembly.

Millions of seafloor pits, not pockmarks, induced by vertebrates in the North Sea

Seafloor pits observed in the sediments off the German North Sea coast could have been excavated by porpoises or other vertebrates, rather than by hydrocarbon release as often assumed, according to analysis of high-resolution multibeam echosounder data.
