Call for a new paradigm for crop improvement
The use of mechanistic crop models can optimize the efficiency of breeding programs.
Chromosomal changes more important than niche differentiation in a Pulmonaria hybrid
The locally abundant hybrid species is well-defined, but shows weak niche differentiation from its progenitors.
Research uncovers a gene that gives pollen grains their unique shapes
The mysterious and complex patterns on pollen walls may self-organise – and far earlier than expected.
Target enzymes for improved photosynthesis
Modeling the activity of enzymes in the Calvin Benson Cycle identifies key enzymes to improve photosynthesis.
δ13Cp as proxy for water use efficiency is deceptive in young leaves
During leaf expansion, the measurement gives counterintuitive results.
Tracking down the DNA for salt removal in a rice leaf sheath
The ability for salt removal at the leaf sheath level is considered to be one of the major mechanisms associated with salt tolerance in rice
A step to the biofuels of the future?
Compiling a genome of an Asian grass is already producing useful results for breeding.
The same mobile protein governs seed size and infloresence structure
The mobile protein connected to the regulation of flowering in Arabidopsis also helps regulate endosperm development in the seed.
