Plant biologists have developed a method for growing transgenic and gene-edited plants that cuts the slow and expensive process down from months to weeks. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest ...

When injured, plants trigger regenerative and defense processes. Until now, it has been unclear whether these “fix and fight” responses activate together or represent biological trade-offs. A new ...

Arachis hypogaea L., Peanut or groundnut, is an important commercial crop worldwide. It provides an excellent source of protein and other nutrients. Its production and quality can be severely impacted ...

Conventional plant regeneration approaches by cell culture require the external application of plant growth regulators, including hormones. However, optimizing culture conditions can be laborious. Now ...

A new nanotube-based RNA delivery system boosts plant regeneration by switching off a molecule that blocks shoot growth, without changing the plant's DNA. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Plant biotechnology has ...

Plants regenerate using pluripotent callus tissues and initiating the de novo formation of shoot apical meristem (SAM). However, the mechanisms governing the efficiency of regeneration are unclear.

Peptide REF1 is a local wound signal promoting plant regeneration. Credit: IGDB In a study published in Cell on May 22, researchers led by Prof. Li Chuanyou from the Institute of Genetics and ...

Plant biologists have developed a method for growing transgenic and gene-edited plants that cuts the slow and expensive process down from months to weeks. Publishing November 6 in the Cell Press ...

Conventional plant regeneration techniques require the application of plant growth regulators, like hormones, which can be species-specific and laborious. In a new study, researchers have developed a ...
