Plant structural biology sits at the leading edge of research on how plants adapt to abiotic and biotic stresses, illuminating the dynamic molecular ...

Plant leaf senescence is a highly regulated, genetically encoded process that marks the final stage of leaf development. This complex phenomenon involves a coordinated dismantling of the ...

In October, Poethig and fellow researcher Aaron Leichty — a former graduate student in Poethig’s lab — published research on ...

A professor of plant molecular biology wants people to know that plants have stem cells too. Just like in the medical world, plant stem cells could support human growth and development when used to ...

Scientists have discovered that a crucial protein found in plants, called auxin response factor (ARF) first arose about 600 million years ago, which was long before there were any plants around. This ...

Researchers at the Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) and the University of Málaga (UMA) have discovered a new function in the BAG4 plant protein. In the study, they prove that this protein ...

Professor Savithramma Dinesh-Kumar, UC Davis Department of Plant Biology, has discovered a compound that could fight fungal diseases in plants including grapes and rice. (Sasha Bakhter/UC Davis ...

When you hear the word "mutations", you probably think of something negative like heritable diseases. But mutations also mean genetic diversity and are at the centre of evolution. Researchers have now ...
