This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 2. The intricate interplay of plant hormones is pivotal in regulating various aspects of plant growth and development, from seed ...

Microbial factories provide a sustainable alternative to tree sap for producing elusive plant molecules, offering new insights into plant development. Plant SLs serve two roles: canonical ones act as ...

Which plant hormones are critical in responding to drought conditions? How do plant hormone responses adjust to environmental changes? An article published in the journal Trends in Plant Science ...

Researchers at the University of Maryland (UMD) have discovered an entirely new role for a well-known plant molecule called ACC, providing the first clear example of ACC acting on its own as a likely ...

Researchers at Wageningen University & Research (WUR), working in close collaboration with KeyGene, have developed a method that enables plant cells to regenerate into complete plants without the need ...

A new study reveals that combining biochar with a natural plant hormone can significantly improve wheat’s ability to withstand two major agricultural threats: cadmium contamination and drought.

In contrast to previous assumptions, the defense hormones salicylic acid and jasmonic acid do not always suppress each other in regulating plant chemical defenses against pests and pathogens. In trees ...

We’ve come to realize that as walking sacks of bacteria, the tiny microogranisms living in our gut actually have quite a lot of control over us. But the bacteria themselves are in turn influenced by ...

Plants can defend against disease, but their growth is stunted when their immune systems are triggered. That’s a problem if the plant is raised for food. CSU researchers have discovered how to turn on ...
