Computer Modeling Reveals Complexity Behind Phenotype-Yield Relationship in Soybean
There is a complex relationship between leaf area index and yield, which is influenced by an intricate interplay of genetic, environmental, and management factors.
How Mowing Leads to an Obi-Wan Effect for Silverleaf Nightshade
A new study reveals that mowing, a common method of weed control, can actually strengthen the defenses of the invasive weed silverleaf nightshade, making it more resilient and harder to manage.
Do orchid seeds fare better in freezers than we thought?
A new study found that seeds from different orchid species could stay alive and ready to grow for over 10 years even when stored in a deep freezer, showing that saving orchid seeds for the long term in seed banks is possible.
Engineered increase in mesophyll conductance improves photosynthetic efficiency in field trial
Overexpressing the CGR3 gene in a model crop led to a remarkable 8% increase in photosynthesis.
Open-Source Dendrometers for Real-Time Plant Water Monitoring
Scientists have developed an open-source instrument that can measure how much water plants have without hurting them, helping us understand plants better and use water for farming more wisely.

Revolutionizing scientific communication and insight through auditory and visual representations.
Researchers shine a light on iridescent leaves
Some plant leaves are blue, but have no blue pigments. How does that work?
Harnessing the Power of Synthetic Data for Deep Learning Image Analysis
The Synavis framework provides a solution to overcome data scarcity for training deep learning biological image analysis models.
From the Seed Bank to the Field: What Storage Does to the Seeds of an Alpine Grass?
Seeds are usually stored before they are sown, but does this induce any kind of change in them? Chen and colleagues bring us a fascinating study of a Tibetan grass species to answer this question.
