Scientists purified a bacterial enzyme to study its role in plant immunity suppression. Their findings suggest soil bacteria use similar enzymes to either aid plant growth or help pathogens evade detection. Understanding this balance could inform agricultural applications, ensuring plants…

Scientists have successfully increased protein content in crops, even under high CO₂ conditions, by enhancing the serine biosynthesis pathway through genetic engineering. This breakthrough improves plant nutrition, reduces reliance on resource-intensive animal products, and supports sustainable diets. The research, involving…

Scientists have uncovered a genetic mechanism in walnuts and their ancestors that has remained stable for 40 million years. Male-first or female-first flowering, balanced by a single genetic locus, parallels sex determination in animals. This evolutionary trait ensures genetic diversity,…
