New research identifies for the first time the genes that help plants grow under stressful conditions - with implications for ...

First, researchers identified the genes behind the 'DMSP' molecule in the wild plants; then they found a way to transfer its ...

Researchers reveal the genes that enable plants to make a novel anti-stress molecule called dimethylsulfoniopropionate, or ...

Saltmarsh ecosystems, particularly those dominated by Spartina cordgrasses, are hotspots for DMSP production due to these plants being able to synthesize unusually high concentrations of the compound.
