Harnessing the power of artificial intelligence to study plant microbiomes—communities of microbes living in and around ...

Plant genetics stands at the forefront of understanding how plants perceive and respond to a fluctuating environment. Recent advances have elucidated complex gene regulatory networks that orchestrate ...

Plant genetics and breeding are at the heart of sustainable agriculture, food security, and biodiversity conservation. As global challenges such as climate change, population growth, and shifting ...

This postdoc uses genome sequencing to uncover genes that shaped plant domestication and can be used to guide the development ...

As a result of climate change, a multitude of abiotic and biotic stresses are emerging, and their combination, known as ...

Rice feeds more than half of the world’s population, but the tiny microbes living on and around rice plants may be just as important as the crop itself. A new study reveals that the specific genetic ...

The Leibniz Institute of Plant Genetics and Crop Plant Research (IPK) is a German research institution focused on plant science, particularly in the areas of genetics, genomics, and crop improvement.

Humans love to play with their food—in fact, we’ve been doing it for thousands of years. In this episode of Crash Course Botany, we explore how we’ve learned to manipulate plant genetics, from ...

Severely abnormal plant growth caused by mutations in the CLV3 duplicate gene CSHL postdoc Iacopo Gentile has devised a new system for identifying redundant genes and predicting how certain genetic ...

The University of California opened its doors in 1869 with just 10 faculty members and 40 students. Today, the UC system has more than 295,000 students and 265,000 faculty and staff, with 2.0 million ...
