Reactive oxygen species trigger downward vertical migration in diatom microphytobenthic biofilms as a strategy to cope with oxidative stress

Alexandre Desparmet, Bruno Jesus, Tony Robinet +2

Diatom-dominated intertidal microphytobenthic biofilms experience daily fluctuations in irradiance, which can lead to oxidative stress within the photosynthetic apparatus through t…

At the Origins of Electroculture: A Retrodictive Modelling of Bertholon's 18th-Century Electrovegetometer in the Pre-Corona Regime

Thierry Dufour

Pierre-Nicolas Bertholon's 18th-century electrovegetometer was conceived to harness "atmospheric electricity" for plant growth, yet its physical capabilities have never been quanti…
