University of Queensland researchers say the discovery of a new stress reduction role for a naturally occurring molecule in ...

Intrinsic water-use efficiency (iWUE) reflects how efficiently plants assimilate carbon relative to water loss at the leaf ...

The work, published in the journal Plant Physiology, describes a new system called “Stomata In-Sight.” The technology addresses a persistent challenge in plant science by making it possible to track ...

Plant physiology in the context of biomining for critical resource recovery is an emerging field at the intersection of plant sciences, mineral resource ...

Every few years, snowshoe hare numbers in the Canadian Yukon climb to a peak. As hare populations increase, so do those of their predators: lynx and coyotes. Then the hare population plummets and ...

Plants are increasingly encountering abiotic stressors, such as salinity, drought, heavy metals, microplastics, and various environmental contaminants, that ...

Lipids are ubiquitous molecules found in all cell types, where they play key roles in structure and signalling with the extracellular environment, as essential components of cellular membranes. In ...

Some plants bend the rules of plant life so far that they barely resemble plants at all. Balanophora is one of them — a parasite that lives underground, lacks chlorophyll, and in some cases reproduces ...
