The
tip region of the butterfly Asian comma proboscis was observed, especially two
microstructures; the intake slits through which liquid passes into the
proboscis and the brush-like sensilla
styloconica.
During liquid feeding, the sensilla
sty...

A butterfly drinks liquid food through a long
coiled proboscis with a pressure gradient induced by a cibarial
pump. However, the long and coiled proboscis make it difficult to position the
proboscis tip at the liquid target. In addition, the...

The ion-responsiveness of water
transport was investigated to understand the mechanism of active water flow
regulation in plants. Different ion types significantly affected water
transport in xylem conduits. Sap flow rate decreased with an increas...

\\Intracellular 3D movements of
chloroplasts in intact plant leaves were monitored during dark to light
transitions by a TPM system. All chloroplasts did not exhibit the same motion
in response to irradiation variation. Spatial heterogeneity in ch...

Structural characteristics and seismonastic
reactions of M. pudica were experimentally investigated using advanced
bio-imaging techniques. The results show that the key factors for the flexible
movements by the pulvinus are the following: bendable...

In order to use gold nanoparticle(AuNP)
with synchrotron X-ray imaging as a tool for visualize hydraulics in xylem
vessel, interaction with the vascular network is verified. Effects of AuNP
supply on the water refilling function of
monocot ...

Pine cones have structural
advantages that could influence the efficient motion of pine cones. Raindrops
fall along the outer scales to the three layers (bract scales, fibers and
innermost lignified structure) of inner pine cones. However, not all...

Plant
leaves have porous structures to pull water from root to the tip of leaves, and
they finally release water to the air. The morphological structure
of plant leaves has been optimized to efficiently transport water. Inspired by
the morpho...

Mass
transport in porous materials attracts large attention in many engineering
applications. Plant leaves, which work as natural hydraulic pumps for water
uptake, have evolved to have the morphological structure for fast water
transport of leaf ...
