The apple wasn’t trying to co-operate with Isaac Newton
Sclereids contribute to peduncle strength in apples, but are the most effective tissue in stiffening peduncles against bending.
Biomechanics of aquatic plants under aerial conditions
Aquatic plants can be exposed to aerial conditions during periods of low water level, but their biomechanical responses to this have had little attention.
