A plant's success may depend on how well the three sets of genetic instructions it carries in its cells cooperate, according ...

Plant trichomes, the hair-like structures covering aerial organs, serve as protective barriers against environmental stresses ...

Unraveling the genetic mysteries of alpine plants, a pioneering study presents a chromosome-level genome assembly of the medicinal herb Triplostegia glandulifera. The research uncovers the plant's ...

Researchers have achieved a breakthrough in understanding how genetic drivers influence the evolution of a specific photosynthesis mechanism in Tillandsia (air plants). This sheds light on the complex ...

This is a big step for us to better understand how genetic material can change." The structural modifications were then confirmed by a team led by Professor Andreas Houben from the Leibniz Institute ...

Researchers are one step closer to understanding how some plants survive without nitrogen. Their work could eventually reduce the need for artificial fertilizer in crops such as wheat, maize, or rice.
