The Hygroscopic Opening of Sesame Fruits Is Induced by a Functionally Graded Pericarp Architecture
To enhance the distribution of their seeds, plants often utilize hygroscopic deformations that actuate dispersal mechanisms. Such movements are based on desiccation-induced shrinkage of tissues in predefined directions. The basic hygroscopic deformations are typically actuated by a bi-layer configur...
