When you think of the great outdoors, you usually envision green. Green forests, green flower meadows, or grassy green hills.

Chloroplast development is orchestrated by a complex network of transcriptional regulators that coordinate nuclear and plastid gene expression to ensure proper assembly of photosynthetic machinery.

Under cold conditions, not only the mother plant but also the father plant can pass on its chloroplasts to the offspring. Scientists at the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology in ...

A group of RIPE researchers have found, for the first time, that chloroplast size manipulations are unlikely to be an option for increasing crop photosynthetic efficiency. Their work was recently ...

Chlorophyll plays a pivotal role in photosynthesis, which is why plants have evolved to have high chlorophyll levels in their leaves. However, making this pigment is expensive because plants invest a ...

DGIST announced that the research team of the fellow Hong Gil Nam and the research team of Richard N. Zare of Stanford University have found in their joint research that chlorophyll demetallation is ...

Grafting has long been the workhorse of clonal tree propagation, but a new study in BMC Plant Biology has pulled back the ...
