have been genetically engineered to reveal the stress responses of plants non-invasively. When triggered by light, one channel provoked responses to osmotic stress (caused by water shortage ...

The field of horticultural crop production is increasingly challenged by both abiotic and biotic stressors, exacerbated by global climatic changes and anthropogenic activities. These stressors, ...

Salt stress is the second most widespread soil problem after drought in arable crop production worldwide. Excess salt in soil adversely affects plant growth, development, and productivity when osmotic ...

Inter-population variation in germination characteristics of "Plantago lanceolata" seeds: effects of temperature, osmotic stress and salinity. Mediterranean Botany ... Cotyledon damage at the seedling ...

Scientists have leveraged CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing to enhance the nutritional properties of Chinese cabbage. By targeting the ...

Incorporating plants into daily life can effectively reduce stress by lowering cortisol levels and boosting mood through phytoncides. Studies indicate that touching plants fosters tranquility and ...

It is the chloroplasts that contain the green pigment chlorophyll which absorbs light. The plant uses this glucose to grow as well as make other useful substances, such as cellulose found in the ...

Salt in excess causes osmotic stress to the plant roots, inhibiting water uptake leading to wilted and stunted plants. However, there is also direct toxicity." After viewing images of the damage ...

Plants are able to reproduce in two different ways - sexual reproduction and asexual reproducion. Sexual reproduction involves pollen from one flower fertilising the egg of another to produce a ...

The study reveals the genes that enable plants to make a novel anti-stress molecule called dimethylsulfoniopropionate, or DMSP. It shows that most plants make DMSP, but that high-level DMSP ...
