Researchers utilize AI to engineer plants combatting climate change. Deep learning software, SLEAP, analyzes plant traits, expediting the design of carbon-capturing plants. By optimizing root systems, plants draw more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

Bioscientists contribute to a global study, creating a comprehensive "tree of life" for flowering plants, including crucial insights into the evolution of cruciferous plants. Drawing from extensive botanical collections and genetic analyses, researchers shed light on plant origins and relationships,…

In Arabidopsis thaliana leaves, lipid droplets (LDs) are not just storage units but hubs for essential molecular functions. Research unveiled proteins crucial for intracellular movements and furan fatty acid biosynthesis within LDs, hinting at novel roles beyond mere lipid storage.…

Researchers have developed sensors using carbon nanotubes to detect plant signaling molecules like hydrogen peroxide and salicylic acid. These sensors could serve as an early warning system for farmers, detecting stresses like heat, light, insect attacks, or bacterial infections in…
