Recent research into bacterial cellulose patches may speed plants' recovery, improve grafting and help with preservation.

A study has elucidated the mechanism by which bacterial cellulose mediates plant tissue regeneration. The work has been ...

Plants encounter various abiotic stresses, such as drought, salinity, and extreme temperatures, which can significantly hinder their growth and ...

Chinese scientists have identified two key genes responsible for sorghum's resistance to Striga, a parasitic plant that causes significant crop losses. The breakthrough, which also highlights the ...

Mitosis orchestrates eukaryotic cell division, maintaining genetic fidelity and playing a key role in development, tissue homeostasis, and cancer progression.

Neurons are cells in the body that are responsible for transmitting electrical signals through the nervous system. Different types of neurons affect the ability to move, which begins as an impulse, or ...

The study, which has now been published in the journal Science Advances, also provides clues as to how plants manage to transmit immune signals from cell to cell without disrupting other signalling ...

Additionally, some kinetochore proteins in plants have been implicated in roles beyond chromosome segregation, such as cytokinesis regulation and involvement ... In fungi and animals, at the start of ...
