Yoon, an associate professor of botany and plant pathology, is probing two different biochemical pathways that plants use to improve their response to stresses such as drought, severe heat and cold.

Ethylene oxide is the smallest of the oxirane family of molecules. It is a sweet-smelling, colorless gas that has many uses; but its high reactivity presents many hazards. Back in 1859, A. Wurtz ...

Ethylene Suggested For Hydrogen Storage Date: December 11, 2006 Source: National Institute of Standards and Technology Summary: New research reported by scientists from NIST and Turkey's Bilkent ...

Ethylene, conveniently, can be made out of natural gas liquids, or even shale gas itself. First, a trimer molecule, containing 6 carbon atoms, is formed from ethylene.

Strong support for molecular cart-wheeling was provided by DFT calculations. For the case of DXE molecules, at the moment of dehalogenation the remnant ethylene molecule recoils from the surface ...

Photo of the model parasitic plant, Phtheirospermum japonicum (left), and its haustorium (right). P: parasitic plant, H: host plant. The right lower photo shows xylem connection between a host and ...

Free gold dimers catalyze the reaction, the researchers report in the journal Angewandte Chemie ("Methane Activation and Catalytic Ethylene Formation on Free Au2"). Whereas one methane molecule is not ...

Researchers from Nara Institute of Science and Technology have found that parasitic plants use the plant hormone ethylene as a signal to invade host plants. Parasitic plants make an organ called a ...
