Every time the temperature drops, a cloud passes overhead, or the sun sets, a plant makes a choice: Keep its microscopic pores, called stomata, open to absorb carbon dioxide and continue photosynthesizing or close them […]
A recent study on cell-cultivated fish has produced promising results that could put seafood back on the menu for the three to five percent of the global population with severe food allergies.This post was originally […]
Abscisic acid (ABA), a key environmental response hormone, strongly inhibits seed germination and serves as a central regulator in this process. While significant progress has been made in deciphering the molecular mechanisms of ABA-mediated germination […]
Throughout evolution, plants have continuously adapted to survive in changing environments. Apart from complex structural changes, plants have also developed various defense strategies against herbivores, including tougher protective layers, thorns, and chemical deterrents.This post was […]
Up to two-thirds of the fish caught never reach the dinner table. SINTEF researcher Line Skontorp Meidell wants to fix that.This post was originally published on this site.
A new study published in Science by a team of scientists across five continents led by King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) Associate Professor Brande Wulff reports a previously unknown molecular event that […]
As agricultural research continues to become more entwined with technology, smart farming—a phrase that encompasses research computing tools that help farmers to better address issues like crop disease, drought and sustainability—has quickly become a ubiquitous […]
Researchers from São Paulo State University (UNESP), at its Tupã campus in Brazil, have developed and tested a new geospatial intelligence methodology that can contribute more quickly and accurately to land use management and territorial […]
