Dynamic modeling of the iron deficiency in plants
Scientists unravel the mysteries of the iron deficiency-induced transcriptional response in plants using a dynamic model.
Maize Reproductive Failure under Drought Quantified
Reproductive failure in maize has long been studied in plant science. Now, for the first time, it has been quantitatively synthesized.
Carbon allocation strategies and respiration limit plant growth
A new model allows researchers to understand the consequences of different carbon allocation strategies for plant growth.
