Plant phototropism—directional growth in response to light—serves as a key adaptive mechanism, optimizing photosynthesis and ...

Researchers are making ever more sophisticated mini organs in the lab — and now they can grow their own blood vessels. The ...

Squamellaria plants grow special structures to host the ants they symbiotically rely on for nutrients. Distinct compartments ...

Automatic targeting of plant cells to perform tasks like extraction of chloroplast is often desired in the study of plant biology. Hence, this paper proposes an improved cell segmentation method ...

Lanthanides are a class of rare earth elements that in many countries are added to fertilizer as micronutrients to stimulate plant growth. But little is known about how they are absorbed by plants or ...

High-throughput in planta expression screening identifies a class II ethylene-responsive element binding factor-like protein that regulates plant cell death and non-host resistance.

In modern breeding, plant cell culture serves as a powerful tool for genetic manipulation and the propagation of desired traits. Within the framework of genome editing, it allows for precise ...

In this study, 22 phenolic compounds were investigated to inhibit the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). Tannic acid showed the highest activity (IC50 = 230 μM). The IC50 values obtained for ...
