As climate change accelerates, plants face mounting pressure to adapt to shifting ecosystems and environmental conditions.

Plants are exposed to constant environmental changes, and their survival depends on their ability to sense and adapt to environmental stimuli. Protein molecules in the cell membrane play a crucial ...

Think about a garden where flowers bloom beside nuclear reactors. It sounds impossible, yet it's happening right now. Since the Chernobyl disaster in 1986, scientists have watched in amazement as ...

Mutualism between plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi is common, and plant populations are expected to have adapted to the AM fungal communities occupying their roots. Tests of this ...

VIENNA (ANI) – As climate change accelerates, plants face increasing pressure to adapt to new environmental conditions. This is especially critical for crops, as drought- and heat-resistant plants are ...

Researchers at the University of Vienna, along with collaborators from France, Germany, Switzerland and the USA, have achieved a major breakthrough in understanding how genetic drivers influence the ...

Every April for the past decade, systems biologist Rodrigo Gutiérrez has driven 1,600 kilometers (1,000 miles) to reach one of the driest places on Earth: Chile’s Atacama Desert, parts of which ...

A team has been studying the current state of research on the plant colonization of land that occurred some 500 million years ago. A team led by evolutionary biologist Prof. Dr. Sven Gould of Heinrich ...

Nuclear is seen as a key contributor to deliver a net zero world in the context of climate change. At the same time, climate change is recognised to pose risks to nuclear power safety and ...
