Hungarian researchers at ELTE Eötvös Loránd University and the HUN-REN Center for Energy Research have shown that the leaves ...

A research team at Clarkson University recently published a study about a plant-based alternative to traditional chemical methods of combating Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs).

Explore the role of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in prostate cancer progression and discover natural therapies, including ...

Aluminum stress is an important factor limiting plant growth in acidic soil, and has significant effects on the growth, development and physiological metabolism of Mentha canadensis. However, the ...

Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is prominently used for analyzing elemental composition in individual cells. However, the conventional sample introduction system of ICP-MS causes ...

A new tool could make it easier to study scarce plant molecules. Researchers have developed so-called microbial cell factories -- using E. coli and yeast -- to produce a special class of plant ...

By co-culturing E. coli and Baker's yeast, scientists have a way to manufacture large quantities of plant molecules for ...

As hormones, strigolactones control the development of the plant and its responses to stress ... of 16-OH-CLA — thanks to the microbial cell factory — allowed the team to uncover its precise structure ...

The team isolated the chloroplasts from algal cells using a centrifuge and gentle stirring. Instead of then piercing the host cells’ membranes, as in earlier work, the researchers adjusted the culture ...

Plant cell biology is the study of all aspects of plant cells. It is particularly concerned with structure, growth, division, signalling, differentiation and death of plant cells. The study used ...

Plant cells can also arrest their cell cycle in ... In the root, no new organs are formed near the RAM and the entire structure is covered by a protective root cap (RC). At the apex–cap boundary ...
