“Together we created a tool that will open the door for improved crop design and sustainable farming for Citrus clementia and a wide range of citrus and non-citrus crops,” said UC San Diego professor ...

With climate change exacerbating drought conditions, scientists in Japan have identified a hidden player in plant survival: ...

A new tool allows researchers to probe the metabolic processes occurring within the leaves, stems, and roots of a key citrus ...

Researchers at the ICAR-Indian Agricultural Research Institute (New Delhi, India) investigated the endogenous levels of gibberellins (GAs) at six different developmental stages and four time points in ...

VIENNA (ANI) – As climate change accelerates, plants face increasing pressure to adapt to new environmental conditions. This is especially critical for crops, as drought- and heat-resistant ...

New insights into plant defence and adaptation A new review has shed light on how plants produce specialised chemical compounds crucial for their survival. The review focuses on biosynthetic gene ...

image image Effective soil exploitation by plants depends on rapid adjustment of root systems to available nutrients. Here, root growth adaptation to distinct nitrogen sources is shown to involve ...

Plants survive climate change using genetic variations. Scientists studied Marchantia polymorpha to find key adaptation traits.

A new study identified genetic variants in <i>Marchantia polymorpha</i> that enable climate adaptation. By integrating genomic and climate data, researchers uncovered genes linked to temperature and ...

A team at the University of Calgary is making scientific advances in understanding plant adaptation, which could ultimately be used to find ways to make agricultural crops more resilient to heat ...

In the plant world, there is a standard for doing business. You don’t rely on food from other sources, you make it yourself using sunlight energy to convert carbon dioxide ...
