How Plants Strike a Balance Between Immune Power and Growth
1+ day, 1+ hour ago (79+ words) Plants cannot run from their enemies, so they have evolved an extraordinary arsenal of molecular...
Root anatomy, metabolism and microbes team up to help plants survive
22+ hour, 12+ min ago (599+ words) Plant roots are far more than simple anchors. They are living interfaces, constantly negotiating with an invisible world of bacteria and fungi that surround them in the soil....
Forty-five years studying plant silicon and phytoliths: a personal
6+ day, 1+ hour ago (787+ words) When Martin J. Hodson walked through the door of Dafydd Wynn Parry’s office at Bangor University in Wales on 20 October 1980, he had no idea that the encounter would define the next four and a half decades of his scientific life....

High-resolution sequencing reveals genes shaping embryonic leaf development
3+ week, 6+ day ago (603+ words) A new study is giving scientists an unusually detailed view of how the maize embryo builds its first leaves, using a technology capable of reading complete RNA molecules while preserving their precise locations inside developing tissue....
How plants silence jumping genes without harming essential genes
3+ week, 6+ day ago (472+ words) Researchers in Japan have uncovered how plants distinguish dangerous “jumping genes” from essential...
Mapping the Dynamic Plant Interactome: New Quantitative In Vivo Approaches
6+ day, 11+ hour ago (78+ words) Every process that keeps a plant alive—from the immune responses that fend off pathogens to the signaling cascades that help roots find water—depends on proteins physically touching one another. These countless molecular handshakes, collectively known as the protein…...
