ACCORDING to the axiom that the greater contains the less, there is justification for the title of the book, but so far as histology is distinguished from anatomy, the contents pertain rather to the ...

In the intricate architecture of plant tissues, beauty often emerges from chaos, according to new research from Cornell ...

Tatsuya Nobori brings high-resolution multiomic approaches to plant biology to map how plants interact with microbes on a ...

Researchers have successfully uncovered the molecular mechanisms by which bacterial cellulose patches stimulate the regeneration of plant wounds. The regeneration process requires the activation of ...

Quantitative Plant Science Initiative led by Brookhaven Lab aims to decode functions of genes and their impacts on productivity to guide breeding, engineering of sustainable bioenergy crops UPTON, NY- ...

MIT researchers have proposed a method for growing plant-based materials, like wood and fiber, in a lab. The technology is still in early development but might one day help reduce the environmental ...

After several years of experimentation, scientists have engineered thale cress, or Arabidopsis thaliana, to behave like a succulent, improving water-use efficiency, salinity tolerance and reducing the ...

Grafting is a horticultural technique that joins plants together by means of tissue regeneration, combining desirable characteristics of both plants. Generally, grafts have been thought to be ...

A group of researchers from MIT has proposed a way to grow certain plant tissues, including wood and fiber, in a lab. Their idea is in the early stages and is likened to cultured meat. Researchers see ...
