It's a huge step forward for the agriculture industry. Scientists make astonishing discovery that could protect food supply ...

Nanoparticles can, in theory, deliver cargo directly to a leaf’s interior and then break down safely. Scientists suspected ...

Plant cell wall components such as cellulose are abundant sources of carbohydrates that are widely used in biofuels and bioproducts; however, extraction of these components from plant biomass is ...

Lam has studied the process at the heart of the enzyme's pivotal role in plant health—a phenomenon known as programmed cell death or cell suicide—for the past 30 years.

Abstract Three hundred and thirteen extracts from 136 Brazilian plant species belonging to 36 families were tested for their suppressive activity on phytohemaglutinin (PHA) stimulated proliferation of ...

Immune cells trained to hunt tumors after scientists plant synthetic 'flags' on cancer by Joshua Stewart, Georgia Institute of Technology edited by Lisa Lock, reviewed by Robert Egan Editors' notes ...

A team of scientists from BGI-Research, Southern University of Science and Technology and other institutions has unveiled the most detailed single-cell map of a plant ever created, providing new ...

So, Lam’s team developed their own, custom-built imaging platform. The cells that star in the team’s wall-building video were protoplasts of Arabidopsis, a small flowering plant belonging to ...

A new part of an ocean plant cell has been discovered that might revolutionize farming one day. The structure can take nitrogen and convert it into the ingredient that helps all organisms grow.

Once we have a growing plant on our hands, Cytokinins stimulate cell division, which allows the plant to build new organs like leaves, stems, and roots. Aw, they grow up so fast.

Animal cells are generally smaller than plant cells. Animal cells range from 10 to 30 micrometers in length, while plant cells range from 10 and 100 micrometers in length. Animal cells come in various ...
