A groundbreaking discovery about how plants defend themselves against environmental threats could transform the way we grow ...

Sometimes just using a different tool makes the job a whole lot easier. A team of researchers co-led by the University of California San Diego has developed a method to produce a special class of ...

A new tool could make it easier to study scarce plant molecules. Researchers have developed so-called microbial cell factories -- using E. coli and yeast -- to produce a special class of plant ...

By co-culturing E. coli and Baker's yeast, scientists have a way to manufacture large quantities of plant molecules for ...

"By using this microbial cell factory, you can bypass extracting tons of xylem sap and thus destroying dozens of trees to discover the molecules important for the physiology of plants," said Li.

According to precedent and due to his status, Yoon will probably be assigned a solitary cell, likely bigger and better appointed than the standard 6.56 square metre (71 square feet) single cells.

6 analysts have shared their evaluations of Xylem XYL during the recent three months, expressing a mix of bullish and bearish perspectives. In the table below, you'll find a summary of their ...

Plants encounter a wide range of pathogens, like bacteria that sneak in through leaf surface pores or fungi that directly invade plant "skin" cells. Since plant cells are stationary, when they ...
