University of Queensland researchers have for the first time introduced genetic material into plants via their roots, opening ...

The human body is interconnected with cell-to-cell communication to orchestrate an effective immune response. Plant cells are organized in a rigid, static order resembling a brick wall due to their ...

A new tool could make it easier to study scarce plant molecules ... CLA -- thanks to the microbial cell factory -- allowed the team to uncover its precise structure for the first time.

A team of researchers co-led by the University of California San Diego has developed a method to produce a special class of plant hormones ... thanks to the microbial cell factory — allowed the team ...

A mutation that causes an amino-acid substitution in a channel called CNGC15 in the plant cell’s nucleus boosts ... because their structure, function and regulation are intricately influenced ...

Molecules released from pathogens are recognised by plant cell surface receptors, and trigger specific signalling cascades that help to defend the plant against attack. Plants deploy cell-surface ...
