Because EIN2 also has roles in cell growth control and stress response, it will be interesting to investigate whether this gene can link the genetic control of leaf cell senescence with seasonal ...

The waxy cuticle surface on the outside protects the leaf and prevents excess water loss. The palisade cells at the upper side are packed with chloroplasts to maximise photosynthesis. On the lower ...

During the spring and summer the leaves have served as factories where most of the foods necessary for the tree's growth are manufactured. This food-making process takes place in the leaf in numerous ...

Confocal overview of a TaEPF1 OE wheat leaf showing epidermal layer (purple), subtending mesophyll cells (green), a stomate (St) consisting of guard cells and associated subsidiary cells and ...

Thank you all so much for your continued interest in Fossil Atmospheres and please consider visiting our Zooniverse site to help with leaf cell analysis. Ginkgo trees evolved before the dinosaurs, ...

Scientists have developed an artificial leaf that uses sunlight to convert CO₂ into hydrocarbons, offering a sustainable ...
