A new method of plant analysis, developed at the Weizmann Institute of Science, has identified healthful antioxidants in tomato skins. In fact, as reported recently in Nature Communications, the new method reveals that biologically active plant substances typically associated with
Read moreKAUST researchers have studied the early responses of rice plants to moderately saline conditions and for the first time pinpointed new salt tolerance genetic loci1. The results could support breeding programs to improve global rice productivity. https://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2016-12/kauo-ehr120416.php

Read moreThe researchers identified a protein with which the fungus suppresses the immune defense of the populated plants. So it makes sure that it is not attacked like disease-inducing fungi and the relationship can succeed in the long run. https://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2016-10/uow-haf102516.php
Read moreMany fungi damage or even kill plants. But there are also plant-friendly fungi: Most land plants live in close community with arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi (AM fungi) that stimulate their growth. Researchers have studied the development of this symbiosis and have
Read moreBecause plants cannot relocate when resources become scarce, they need to efficiently regulate their growth by responding to environmental cues. Drought is the most important cause of reduced plant growth and crop yield, which makes insights into a plant’s drought
Read moreResearchers have developed a novel toolkit based on modified yeast cells to tease out how plant genes and proteins respond to auxin, the most ubiquitous plant hormone. Their system allowed them to decode auxin’s basic effects on a diverse family
Read moreBreakthrough in salt-tolerance in plants research A breakthrough has been made in investigating salt tolerance in plants which could lead to new salt tolerant varieties of crops, and also answer unresolved questions in plant biology. ScienceDaily.com
Read moreThe 1,4-naphthoquinones (1,4-NQs) are a diverse group of natural products found in every kingdom of life. Plants, including many horticultural species, collectively synthesize hundreds of specialized 1,4-NQs with ecological roles in plant–plant (allelopathy), plant–insect and plant–microbe interactions. Numerous horticultural plants
