Scientists find immune molecule that supercharges plant growth Largely unexplored in plants, 'itaconate' stimulates seedling development, offering a path to enhancing valuable food crops Date ...

Modulation of root system architecture, including primary root growth and branching, is among the most essential plant adaptions to ensure adequate nitrogen acquisition. However, the immediate ...

Carrying capacity and growth rate were highest in the medium nutrient level suggesting a positive correlation between nutrient level and growth rate and carrying capacity to an extent. This experiment ...

Most research on plant stem cells focuses on the tips of roots and shoots, where growth occurs in height. But biologist Kirsten Ten Tusscher from Utrecht University explains that thickness growth ...

White noise helped improve the growth of a soil fungus that itself stimulates plant growth, a study found.

Application of ZnO NPs reduced salt stress by promoting physiological growth parameters. The NPs facilitated enhanced plant growth and reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation by regulating ...

A study shows that ground glass particles can be mixed with soil to produce a plant growth medium that's actually better than soil alone.

The importance of early root growth for plant tolerance to early drought stress was then evaluated in field trials in 2 independent years using 9 inbred lines with contrasted root growth (slow, ...
