Scientists are conducting extensive research on developing metal-based and carbon-based nanomaterials to improve plant growth and development. Nanomaterials can be used as promising tools to deliver ...

Extensive fieldwork reveals that island plants have similar functions to plants in other regions of the world, but that the island environment, along with biogeographical and evolutionary processes, ...

When looking at forests, we hardly get to see beyond a bunch of green. However, for a plant ecologist, forests represent a much more complex world consisting of different species. This diversity of ...

Researchers take a big step in showing efficacy of bioprinting plant cells to study cellular communication and viability in a controlled environment. A new study from North Carolina State University ...

Scientists at the Salk Institute's Harnessing Plants Initiative hope to tackle the issues of climate change and food security by unraveling the genomic architecture behind various plant species, and ...

New understanding of circadian rhythms could be key to stronger, drought-resistant crops in the face of climate change. The biological clock of a popular food crop controls close to three-quarters of ...
