New research from an international team of plant biologists, led by researchers at the VIB-UGent Center for Plant Systems ...

So, those were a bunch of things that our cells don’t have in common with plant cells. But there’s another thing we do have in common. And that’s hormones. That’s right: plant cells are ...

Plant hormones play a major role in plant growth and development. They affect similar processes but, paradoxically, their signaling pathways act nonredundantly. Hormone signals are integrated at ...

How do symbioses between plants and fungi develop? How do plants decide whether or not to enter into a partnership with fungi ...

Learn about our Editorial Policies. Plant SLs serve two roles: canonical ones act as external signaling molecules typically released from the roots, while noncanonical SLs function as hormones within ...

In particular, her team discovered what happens to a symbiosis when the plant produces stress hormones. Their research could contribute to a new agriculture in which plants and fungi are considered as ...

Rooting powder contains plant hormones to promote growth. Plant cuttings can be dipped in hormone rooting powder before planting. Synthetic plant hormones are used to control plant growth.

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

Plant hormones, also known as phytohormones, are chemicals that regulate plant cell processes. They are signal molecules produced within the plant functioning in extremely low concentrations.

Right under our feet, hidden in the ground, there is a complex network of relationships: almost all plants live in close symbiosis with fungi. These fungi do not form the classic mushroom fruiting ...
