Secrets about how giant trees grew in reverse can be found in fossil imprints of their roots. Micro-CT scanning shows that ...
As global temperatures continue to rise, extreme heatwaves pose a significant threat to agricultural productivity. Studies estimate that for every 1°C increase above pre-industrial levels, crop yields ...
On the left, an Arabidopsis plant is shown, with the growing shoot tip indicated by the orange line. The orange box shows a top view of the shoot tip at higher magnification, with the shoot meristem ...
The key to three-dimensional plant architecture lies in precise control over the orientation of cell division. Plant cells divide periclinally to grow radially—leading to thickening—while anticlinal ...
• In rice, the florigens Heading Date 3a (Hd3a) and Rice Flowering Locus T 1 (RFT1), OsFD-like basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factors, and Gf14 proteins assemble into florigen ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – A Purdue University study has uncovered mechanisms that lead to stem cell formation and maintenance in plants. The findings may one day allow scientists to manipulate stem cell ...
Tolerance to apical meristem damage (AMD) is a form of plant defense against herbivory. Theoretical models come to different conclusions about the effects of inorganic soil nutrient levels on ...
Mutations drive evolution, but they can also be risky. New research led by plant biologists at the University of California, Davis, published Nov. 10 in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences ...
