Plants fix 258 billion tons of CO2 in their chloroplasts through photosynthesis every year. For these cell organelles to work ...

LMU biologists decipher the ionome of chloroplasts and create the foundations for new biotech strategies.

The signal recognition particle (SRP) has evolved in chloroplasts to include new components, new ways of recognizing targeting substrates and new capabilities that prevent aggregation of ...

Five plants from each treatment were randomly selected for the measurement of gas exchange and pigment contents. Photosynthetic rates were measured through a CIARS-2 portable photosynthesis system (PP ...

Mitochondria and chloroplasts contain their own genomes, but most of their proteins are encoded in the nucleus. The coordination of separate genomes is achieved by both anterograde mechanisms (nucleus ...

Toxic metals have become some of the main abiotic agents that influence the stress of organisms due to their numerous agricultural and industrial uses that result in bioaccumulation and toxicity at ...
