It is said that 10 to 15% of the world's agricultural production loss is caused by diseases, which is equivalent of the food for about 500 million people. And since 70-80% of this plant disease is ...
A joint research team has discovered a new molecular switch that determines when plant leaves begin to age. The research team has identified for the first time a new mechanism in which RNA made from ...
Researchers identified a large novel protein complex in the inner chloroplast membrane that functions as a motor to import proteins into the chloroplast. Components of the complex evolved from a ...
Chloroplast proteases are central to maintaining the functional integrity of the photosynthetic machinery. They regulate the degradation of damaged, misfolded, or obsolete proteins, thereby ensuring ...
The nonchromosomal stripe 2 (NCS2) mutant of maize (Zea mays L.) has a DNA rearrangement in the mitochondrial genome that segregates with the abnormal growth phenotype. Yet, the NCS2 characteristic ...
The fine structure of the ac-20 strain of Chlamydomonas reinhardi is described. Cells grown mixotrophically in the presence of acetate have a highly disordered chloroplast membrane organization and ...
Optimal packing problems have inspired mathematicians for centuries. Biophysicists now add a layer to the question: How do ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – A delicate balance of electrons flowing through the photosynthetic machinery is essential to a plant’s ability to turn sunlight into energy and its survival. Understanding the ...
Osaka, Japan -- Over 1 billion years ago, a relationship began between the ancestor of all living plants and a type of bacterium that paved the way for the evolution of life as we know it. The ...
