Plant extracts refer to a class of substances derived from plants characterizing the broad range of sources and types with ...

Researchers at the IPK Leibniz Institute have discovered a previously unknown protein that is central to plant reproduction.

Eukaryotic cells are known for having a nucleus and various internal structures called organelles, each with a specific role. These cells allow organisms to grow, repair, reproduce, and respond to ...

Abstract Many fungal pathogens develop specialized infection structures such as appressoria to penetrate plant cells. However, it is not clear whether special structures are formed after cell wall ...

There are five different types of white blood cells, each with varying functions in your body. These include granulocytes, such as eosinophils, basophils, and neutrophils, as well as monocytes and ...

GENETIC MANIPULATION Their work entailed sorting through and genetically manipulating the functions of a complicated alphabet soup of plant proteins in controlled experiments using a model plant ...

Abstract: Background: RNA interference (RNAi) is a natural post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) system of eukaryotic cells and can be used as spray-induced gene silencing (SIGS) to target genes.

It's no coincidence that our bodies feel a little creakier as we age. The trillions of cells that make up our skeleton age too, and some change in ways that weaken the very structure of our bones.

So, Lam’s team developed their own, custom-built imaging platform. The cells that star in the team’s wall-building video were protoplasts of Arabidopsis, a small flowering plant belonging to ...

A normal red blood cell count ranges between 4.5 and 5.3 million cells/μL for males ages 12 to 18 years, while the range is 4.1 to 5.1 million cells/μL for females of the same age group.

The molecular machinery of the chloroplast regulates how efficiently plants convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. Purdue University scientists have discovered a new mechanism that ...
