Chlorophyll is the green pigment found in plants, algae, and cyanobacteria. It is essential for photosynthesis, the process ...

Fields of wheat, rice and corn might feel far from climate negotiations, yet they hold surprising power over the planet’s ...

Abiotic stress physiology is a critical field within plant science, particularly as climate change and environmental ...

In the damp understory of forests in Taiwan, mainland Japan, and Okinawa, a plant called Balanophora can fool you at first ...

The energy that plants capture from sunlight through photosynthesis provides the source of nearly all of humanity's food. Yet the process of photosynthesis has inefficiencies that limit crop ...

A research team from the United States’ University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has experimentally examined how shading in agrivoltaic systems influences sorghum and soybean grain yields, focusing on ...

Australian researchers have created tiny compartments to help supercharge photosynthesis, potentially boosting wheat and rice yields while slashing water and nitrogen use. Researchers from Associate ...

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or ...

Hello, I recently came across an impressive YouTube video demonstrating a dynamic 3D simulation of soybean plant structures. However, I've been unable to find any open-source examples or libraries ...

One century ago (1920), Otto Warburg (1883-1970) discovered that in liquid cultures of unicellular green algae (Chlorella sp.) molecular oxygen (O-2) exerts an inhibitory effect on photosynthesis.

With artificial photosynthesis, humankind could utilize solar energy to bind carbon dioxide and produce hydrogen. Chemists have taken this one step further: They have synthesized a stack of dyes that ...
